That last line really described what happened with Oji-san and I during our first date >.< I don't know how or why that happened. I just remember feeling very happy holding his sweaty hands. Hah.
But anyway, I'm not gonna reminisced about that first date. That is for another entry altogether. What I want to post about now (before I go to sleep; my eyes are heavy and my legs are crying out for help cus I think I ran about 5 km today?) is the fact that it is not always rainbows and butterflies when it comes to marriage. Facebook and Twitter has help me to become a kaypoh-ter (play on the word 'reporter') on a few of my friends and acquaintances' marriage status. Some are divorced, some has remarried while some are left hanging? Them, with their thousands of dollars wedding receptions. She, with the pictures of her and her 'special one' during their courting days plastered all over her Facebook. Her, who declared that she was marrying the 'love of her life'.
But then everything turns to naught a few years after the marriage.
What? I am totally flabbergasted.
Does things really go downhill after marriage? Is it always the guy's fault? Where did the trust and the understanding between a couple goes? Is there any outsider's interference?
Marriage is a big step honestly. Right now, I am not sure I am prepared to take the next step. I already have a headache thinking about all the preparations that I need to do just for the sake of holding the wedding reception. So I rather not think about it.
Whatever it is, if I am meant to be with Oji-san, I'll pray and I'll work hard to make sure that my marriage will last. Insya allah. No. I'll definitely make sure that I'll still be around to push him down the staircase when he turns 50 years old (inside joke XP).
Oh, the more time I spend online, the more atrocious my grammar becomes. Better turn in. Good night, Shumukku! Your real-life alter ego needs to get her beauty sleep :)
