All Grown Up?

I received the 2nd wedding invitation for this year. Suddenly, people around me are either engaged or married. In NIE, you can spot sparkling diamonds on the fourth fingers easily; some are really huge while others are normal-looking.

And before you get the wrong idea, this post is not about me wanting to get married (because I don't, yet). This post is about how we are all growing up too fast and too soon. In the blink of an eye, we are gonna transform from fun-loving babes to home-loving wives!

Even though the stuff that I do sometimes resemble a wife's duty but still...the label matters.

I still find 'crossing over' very scary. To me, it's a whole new world. Being a wife means a lot of things. You can't expect to live a life you've always did and be someone's wife. Your priority will shift. Your responsibility will increase.

Nonetheless, I recognise that it's part and parcel of life. We'll all reach there somehow. It's just a matter of time.



Being human.

Hmm I don't think I've become the 万洁灵 housewife (the one who's got like 8 arms and mopping all the time) la...

But yes... bit strange to know other than myself, in this year alone already 4 friends have announced a wedding date. Like it's the latest trend :P
