Is it the month of love or the month of weddings? I’m very sure it’s the month of love but with all the weddings that took place or are about to take place, and the wedding engagements I’ve been hearing that were just finalized this February, I just might believe it if somebody suddenly smacked me in the head and told me that time has fast-forwarded to June. LOL.
A colleague of mine is getting married on the 15th. I was invited but I don’t have anything formal to wear so I’ll probably just take a rain check on that — except that it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event so I don’t think I can take any rain checks. :P Minus the fact that I lack the proper attire to the event, I am somehow looking forward to watch her walk down that aisle. AND, I’m curious about the final outcome of her 300K-worth wedding. Imagine that! I can buy a car with that amount of money! JK.
A close friend also contacted me a few days ago to tell me that her wedding date is final and to ask if I could come home this December. She sent me an informal invitation through text, to which my reply was “I wouldn’t miss it for the world!” I just hope I wasn’t speaking too soon.
Also worth-mentioning is the wedding of a high school classmate which took place last week. My batchmates said it’s too bad I wasn’t able to come since that particular wedding, apparently, is the first “out-in-the-open” wedding among us. Our other 3 or 4 married classmates were secretly wed before.. which we surprisingly (albeit expectedly) heard only a few months after.
In addition to these, I’ve also heard of some couples who are getting married soon. See? It’s the month of weddings and engagements! :D
I am very happy for these people, especially for my close friend whom I was only talking with 2 years ago about anime, boys/crushes, and dreams of living independently after college. Who knew that at the age of 23 (actually, she’ll be 24 by December) she’d be tying the knot? It’s so surreal. But then again, knowing she’s marrying a fine man (who happens to be the older brother of another classmate. LOL!), I just know that she’s going to be all right. :)
Funny how some couples have plans for their wedding day already when our plans only revolve around the next gadget or item to buy, the next “raket” to work on, the next movies to see, and the next out-of-town trip with friends. Hehehe! I admit that I’m still not mature enough for this wedding stuff. Maybe in another decade. Haha :D
Since I don’t know how to properly segue into my next agenda, I’ll just go ahead and say it. To all the lovers, married couples, engaged couples and lovers in waiting…
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!
