future

yesterday a colleague suddenly commented during a train ride, 'Wow.....you're getting married in 5 months'

ya...and...it feels weird. As in...there's no 1 word to collectively describe it...especially not when

  • we haven't gotten a house yet and will only start hunting end of the month
  • ministry is slowly but surely picking up and is starting to fill the calendar
  • money is disgustingly something one cannot shy away from in a getting married
  • i gush over friends' uber cute and adorable babies but don't want my own till 2years later cuz i'm selfish and want hubby2be for a while to myself (and the thought of becoming wider in the hips frighten me)
  • the thought of walking down the aisle feels very very surreal
  • it seemed not that long ago (yet not that recent either) that we were still figuring out if we liked each other
i almost wish i could stretch out the 5months to 8 months...just so i can really savor things without life rushing by me. 

5 more months of single-hood! *gasp* 'single' according to the law la...

XW: eh, let's plan to have babies around the same time. i'll have a girl, you have a boy (or whichever) then they can grow up together and marry each other next time ok? hee hee...bethrothing our kids before our own marriage! :P blame it on the hour of the night k? ;)

P.S. on a separate note, thank you all dear friends, for caring for me in different ways during this period while i grieved over grandpa. i'm better now... *smile*

Hey dearie...

Mel & I are 3 1/2 months away.. and we wish for time to pass faster! Haa! :)

But... When we think of the things that we have to do but have not.. we can't believe we have only 3 1/2 months ahead... When I think of being away and far from my family, I wish time will stand still...

Well, all in God's timing & control :D

We'll prolly hv a kid only in the 3rd year. But age is not a prob right? Haa!

Some funny people we are! June said she don't mind Vera having a younger partner too. :P
