Words of the Mad

5 years ago, I was skeptical about fitting into the poly education and wondering if I’m going to survive the 3 long years. Well, seems like it isn’t that long, anyway.

Forward to 5 years later, which is now, you know, like RIGHT NOW, erm, I don’t mean TODAY per se… (okok, you get the idea) I’m about to complete my National Service (2 months! 2 months!), find a job, find a school (and get thru the fitting in thing all over again) and hearing wedding bells. Yes, you heard me right. WEDDING BELLS.

My cousins are getting (or got) married (and I just heard from my mum last night that a once-close male cousin of mine of the same age has gotten a flat with his gf.. gosh!) and I’ve been attending weddings like nobody’s business since last year. Thank goodness the ang pows are taken care of by my mum! And good thing I don’t have THAT many friends inviting me to their weddings (less burnt-pockets).

It HAS to be a growing up thing, hearing people around me ringing the wedding bells. The feeling isn’t anything like the ice-cream man enticing me to get a nice mint cone from him. At this stage, it’s more like a “OMIGOD YOU’RE GETTING MARRIED???!” The evolution (from a kid to a full-fledged adult) is too much for me to handle.

Don’t even get me started on shotgun-marriages. It’s very sad to keep thinking that anyone getting married around my age are results of failed safe-sex. Marriage is about bringing the relationship further, people. More commitment, more trust. Not just about sex and babies.

I don’t see myself getting married. It’s ridiculous for me to even think about it. Too far-fetched.

Anyway, as time passes (and we grow less young), we’ll hear more and more people settling down with their other halves. I’m sure it wouldn’t be long before we’re hearing about funerals to attend. Teeheehee.

Wow!!! I didn’t realise this domain was near its expiry until it was down last night!! Was so afraid that I would have difficulty renewing it since I switched over to Val’s host a month back. Thankfully it’s ok!!

Had a night out with Valiboo, Jasmine & Meiyan on 12 May. Explored Loof (i miss that cutie!) and got tricked into Zouk. Sometimes, a little booze, a little dance (actually i was jumping and shaking off-beat-ed-ly to some music), a little ciggs (for valiboo) and a few great friends make me a happy boy.

Check out my rebonded hair (and my spunky new specs)!! Just a little on the top and the fringe. It’s been snipped off though. Thanks to some recommendation from another stylist who feels I should show my forehead since it’s not too high when all I wanted was some trimming/grooming. TSK! I’m sucha klutz to accept that idea because it turned out to be a hair-style which I had previously! Grrrrrrrrr.
