get married?

what's it like wanting to get married?

a friend of mine who works at TANGS told me today

that her mom thinks its time for her to start dating guys

who are potentially the marriageable type.

to my surprise, she thinks her mom is right!

did i mention that my friend is only 25.

so why the rush?

here's what i came up with.

1. meet a guy this weekend.

hang out for 1 nite.

date for 6months.

see is he husband material.

date another 6 months.

wait for to proposal.

wait another 1 year.

the proposal is popped.

the engagement.

apply for house. wait another 3 years.

a 3 year headstart to plan the wedding.

guestlist. wedding gown. honeymoon. suit. ang pow.

bridal car. restaurant or hotel. sisters. in-laws. panadol.

by now she's at least 31.

there's still the newly married life first.

so that is another 3 to 5 years before the baby comes.

yah.

so maybe her mom is right.

or maybe she should have started wanting to get married at 14,

like most malay girls.
