some recent thoughts

Attended a wedding dinner just yesterday evening; and it seems like everyone's pairing up and talking long-term plans. Friends around me too - I have my best friend's solemnisation to attend in June; a wedding lunch in Dec and another dinner in Jan 2010.

As much as I am happy for these friends of mine that they will be moving towards another step in their lives, I can't help but wonder: how do singles feel? As you see those close to you talk abt getting married, the act of getting married itself, having kids... what happens to those who have not been able to find the same? And no matter how much they say that you can't seek love; that love seeks you out instead - I think I wld feel a tinge of melancholy if I were single.

As for myself per se, I am single and attached. Although the Boyfriend has not yet proposed, we have signed and paid the first deposit for our apartment. And I *guess* in a way tt act is in itself a sign of commitment on our parts for each other. The Proposal, of course, is still extremely important and it is smthg I desire personally. So I guess in the midst of all the talk of future plans, I will still wait for it to come (:

Wedding videos always make me tear, being an emotional person. Especially when I hear the groom listing the reasons why he loves his bride [before he is admitted to her bedroom], it always touches a chord in my heart and makes me tear. Oh man. I really feel touched at the smallest things! But its always so sweet to hear the groom telling the whole world why he loves his bride so much tt he wants to spend the rest of their lives together.
