A Bridal Shower...
The other night i got to spend some time with a few friends at a bridal shower. And it was the first bridal shower that i ever went to. It made me realize how time just flew by and how quickly we all grew up.
(I am sure that during the wedding i will be bawling like a lunatic!!) :)
Marriage has always been something vague and something so far down the road. It has always only been something for the parents or the aunts and uncles. I've been to numerous weddings but it think it'll be different going to a friend's wedding. Her wedding being just a couple of days away, seem to make the thought of marriage and a wedding not so foreign anymore. I do not mean for me personally but for all those close to me.
I actually believe that you can never be 100% sure about getting married. I don't think there is the right time. It seems so frightening and i suppose that though i may sometimes feel that i will have to go through it (and will be ready for it) sooner or later, it won't be easy. "Forever" is a dangerous word. The pessimist that i am, i do not believe in that. I do have a choice if a want to give "forever" a try in a sense but i do not think it will ever be as pleasing/effortless as i presume it to be. But then again, my senti-ness urges me to give it a try (with my one and only of course...unless joshua jackson sweeps me off my feet! ) :)
Earlier i also received the wedding invitation of another friend of mine which will take place next month. Unbelievable :)
*today i am thankful that my friends have found the person that they want to spend the rest of their lives with. I wish them successful and happy marriages :)

there's this article on ELLE Feb '06 on marriage that I loved. I've been telling chad about it nga eh. If you can get hold of a copy, i think it's a good read especially for somebody who WILL be getting married in the near future. Hehe!
hey chelle! :) haha tlga? sige i'll try to read it when i get the chance! thanks :P tell chad bili siya nung mag then he should send it to me nalang. i should just inherit it from him since he's gonna get married first! hehehe :)
tulakan pa kayo ah!!! batukan ko kayo eh. Why not make it a back to back wedding?! hehe =)
To me, the article didn't come off as a push to get married or not. It tells BUT one's take on what this whole marriage hoopla is / can be about. Parang "What about marriage?" Anyway, it is a good read. I hope you guys can get hold of the article.
