I know exactly what you mean about the marriage thing. I’ve been dating my boyfriend for 3 years and everyone is like when are you two getting married… um.. not for a while. Plus I’m still in school. There’s so many thing I want to do before I get married and have to settle down and think of my relationship as “us”.
Yeah.. everyone’s so preoccupied with marriage :X Chris and I have been together 5+ years and it only gets worse! 😉
I think the media emphasis marriage as being the most important thing you do while you are young. It’s like I’m young. I want to know that if I decide one day that Chris (my boyfriend) and I are not going in the same direction, I don’t have to stay there and work things out I can just leave and continue on my way. People don’t realize that marriage means I promise to stick with you through the thick and the thin and I promise to love you no matter what you do (even if you lay around the house and be a bum).
My roomate right now is all about marriage. She talks about it all the time. She even got mad when I said I wouldn’t want a diamond ring I would rather have something more unique. She wants to get married some time this year and she still has to go to law school. I couldn’t imagine being in school and coming home and having to worry about dinner or if the house is clean.
Ya I agree.. loads of people get married in their 30s and are quite happy with it. It’s mainly ‘cos we’ve been together for 5+ years, that’s why, I reckon.
What would you rather have instead of a ring? A friend of mine wants a bag instead.. I find that a bit odd though 😛
You should marry when you are around 30 something… 25 is way too young. Plus 50 years with one person is just mind blowing when you put the figures together.
50 years is kinda scary.. I think it’s tough to commit to someone for that long!
Aww, congratulations to her! Love the picture… you were so stylish even then. 🙂
Hehhe i dunno about the pink frilly dress! But I like the carebear 😉
oh my god cousin Amanda is getting married!! i still have this image of her 10 year old self in my head…
So do I!! It’s crazy how we’ve all grown up..

Congrats to her and also to the family!
Meh, get married when you’re ready. And if you’re ready there should be no reason for hurry. 🙂
Ya, I agree.. our friends always ask us when we’ll get married, since so many of them are – to be honest I find that a bit rushed to get married so young.. can’t even begin a career :X
lol just wait til you do get married, then it’ll be all about when are you gonna have kids!
So much to look forward to. 😡
Ive sent my congrats to your cousin, this is so exciting! 😛
And yes, we have all grown up so quickly. Went toy’r’us the other day to get a gift for my year old cousin and saw my yesteryears flashing past in my head. 😉
It’s exciting… she’s the first of the 3 of us to get hitched 😛
Chris and I go to Toys R Us regularly even now, lol
Argh, why am I chomping on that food! It’s March 2007, so there’s tons of time left!
Hehe you look cute!
Thought it was 2006.. so it’s actually quite far off! What made you decide on that year and date?
It’s our anniversary! And next year was too soon, so 2007 was a good choice!
Hehe cute piccie of you and Amanda. Didn’t know you both were cousins!
Yup! we’re first cousins 🙂
so cute!!
Hehe I like cute kid pics. somehow present-daypics just dont look as cute, lol!!
aww congrats to her!!
btw just curious as I can’t for the life of me tell, which one is you in that gorgeous pic? 😀
She’s on the left, I’m on the right!
Wow! Isn’t she quite young? Think I sort of knew her back in primary school. 🙂 Congrats to her!
She’s 4 months younger than me.. but she’s not getting married till 2007 so she’ll be 25 then 🙂
That’s so wonderful! Best wishes to her!
I’m really happy for her! And her fiance is perfect for her 🙂
hehehe…soo adorable da both of you!
We have some pretty cute kid pics.. I wonder what happened to us now, hahaha!!
The pic of you guys is so cute.
I like the exasperated look on my face, lol!
Hey, I’m the middle cousin too! No one’s married yet, but I know my family is just hanging off their seats waiting for me to announce my engagement ASAP. Gah! Definitely nothing like that for me right now in the near future.
*timidly* BTW, did you unfriend me for any particular reason? Or just list-cleaning? I did love reading your posts even if I didn’t comment very much.
My parents aren’t keen on me getting married atm, but I know my relatives will ask when I’m getting married when I’m next back in SG! :X
I went through my Friends list and took of any inactive users.. but I just added you back! 🙂
oh Bev.. I totally feel you on the whole “mixed race/culture relationship” 🙂
I raise my hand with an “aye to that!” too. =/
Yeah.. it SEEMS easy on the surface, but there are always issues.. and not just when you get married, but afterwards too. There’s the saying that as long as you have love, you can do anything. But I think you need love AND a lot of other things too!
Congratulations to her 🙂
My oldest friend, of 15 years, got married last Saturday. I wasn’t able to attend, but being at her bridal shower was so surreal.
It’s definitely surreal when people you know when you were kids get married.. I just can’t imagine them as married adults 😛
Congrats to her and also to the family!
