So I started my saturday morning by logging into my facebook account. I found out about A's breakfast, B's favourite songs, C's mood and so on. But what surprised me the most was E and F's marriage and they are now proud parents! Relying on my stalking skill, I browsed even further and managed to see their wedding photos (I didn't know when and where the reception were). I was not that closed to them, but it was as if just yesterday I saw them in their primary school uniform and now they've grown up, got married, and become proud parents...
Truth suddenly dawned on me: I'm aging. I'm no longer a teenager, the youthful girl with ponytail hair running around the school. It feels like just yesterday, but the fact is I've left high school for almost 7 years already!
Most people of my age have got married. Some are now working and have finished their degree or diploma. They've grown up. And I'm still in denial, that I have all the time in the world before I reach the age of adulthood.
I talked to my girlfriends about marriage recently. I found it a funny topic, yet scary, to discuss. To get married means you're not only marrying the person who would become your husband or wife, but also the responsibilities that come along the way. The family-in-law, for example. Looking on the bright side, you get a new family. But... what if I'm not good enough, not up to the expectation, and what frightens me the most is... what if I'm not able to fit in?
Maybe sometimes, I should lessen my stalking activity.
