Thinking Out Loud

We recently had broadband installed and I've been a certified internet addict since then. Believe me, if I could surf the net 24/7 I would..hehehe!

One of my frequent destinations, and my favorite at that, is of course Friendster. I'd upload photos, edit my profile, search for friends and browse friends' profiles, especiallythose I receive updates from. As I check them out, I noticed that 9 out of 10 profiles indicate MARRIED as the status. Wow, and I mean wow...people are really getting married...not just some ordinary people..but people I know, people I grew up with..people I'm close to..people who are my friends.

Sometimes, I still can't get used to the idea. Don't get me wrong, I do get excited for my friends who are stepping into marital bliss and I am really happy for them. It's just that you know, sometimes I just tend to forget that at this stage of our lives, the next logical step would be to get married, have a family and have a life of our own.

Minsan kasi, feeling ko ang bata ko pa..hehehe! I still feel I'm only 22...hehehe! I feel no pressure at all that people around me are already getting married while I remain unattached. But sometimes, I just feel like unti unti na akong naiiwan. I know being single doesn't mean you are alone..I know I'm not. But sometimes I feel I am. Parang nauubusan na ako ng makakasama, ng makaka hang out. Everybody seems to be taking big steps, whether it'd be in relationships or careers or life in general... while I remain taking small ones.

Oh well, I guess, the time has not yet come for me.
Sana lang... I can stop waiting.
