Hi hi everyone! I’ve had the honour of being a guest blogger on tedy’s website.. (probably felt guilty that i footed the dinner last night.. really tedy, no need to repay me.. you’re indebted to me already as it is ;P) i hope you enjoyed your day yesterday… it’s was a night of no politics in a long time!
Tedy.. getting old hey? Well i probably shouldn’t poke at him as it can come back and bite me in the ass! So, when’s the big day? Didn’t your auntie say that you’ve joined the ‘potentially marrying soon’ club? It’s funny if you think about it.. we’re only getting to the quarter of a century mark and here are our relatives pestering us about marriage. Not only do people expect us to do well in our studies, work hard to have a career that’ll set us for life but also choose a person to spend the rest of our lives with. Scary if you ask me.
People need to take a chill pill and take things in stride. Spread things out a little hey? I guess we’re lucky cos at least we can choose our future partners but i reckon life’s too interesting to rush into. We’re in our prime years… healthy and full of energy… ready to take on the world. We can have everything as long as we pace ourselves: finish uni, work hard to build ourselves in our careers and then, a family. You have to be selfish sometimes and think about yourself before taking another person into the equation. Life can be happy and merry without having to get married!
This is all easier said than done mind you. The reality is that we’re humans with a sense of wanting and belonging. As ambitious as a person can be, just being able to share it with your significant other can make all the difference. Our aunties obviously have already figured this out, thus why they pester us so much. Fair enough.
