HUNTING MOVIES IN THE NET...
THE GIRL ON THE MOVE IS BACK.... TIRED & BUSY...!!
Last weekend was wholly gone for the Nuwara-Eliya trip. It was a 3 day trip with my friends and family. It was good. Saturday, Sunday, Monday for the trip. Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday working late till 9.30 and coming home around 11. Friday, a wedding of a very good friend of mine, in
The mailboxes are piling up… I lost track of time to call my friends…. Rarely see the people at home.. No time to watch a movie… No time to cuddle up and read a book… I miss reading all the weekly newspapers.. No facebook.. I’m developing dark circles under my eyes.. And work is so damn tiring these days. I wonder why our lives have to be so busy. We don’t even have a time to look after ourselves. It’s bad, you know. I wonder when this circle will be over… For most of you out there, I know that the story of your life is almost identical to mine… All we do is, keeping our hopes up and facing the next busy day. Hmmm…..

IN TO THE WILD....
HMMM.... THE NEXT IN LINE.....
Well… they had many questions for me, you see. ‘How old are you now?’ was the 1st question. And when I answered ‘27’, they get shocked. ‘Oh no… You’re already too late. When are you going to marry??’ will be the next question. First, it was somewhat annoying. Then I turned it into a word game. Just for all you yet-to-be married girls, regardless of having boyfriends or not, here are a few things you can tell all the curious people out there to get away from the situation.
‘Oh… I’m already married. Didn’t you know?’ ‘Well… I ran away.. my parents kept it as a secret.’ ‘I’m married, you know. This is my 5 year old son’ and show a kid running around you. And if there’s no kid running around you, tell them ‘Sure thing. I’m getting married next year’. But the next question will be ‘Who’s the lucky guy?’ Then you answer ‘He’s getting the divorce from his wife these days’. For the ‘When can we have a piece of cake from you?’ question.. you say ‘Tomorrow maybe? I’ll buy you a good one from the Sponge’… And here’s a rude one.. ‘When will you invite us for you’re wedding?’ question… you say ‘You won’t be. The list was too big, so I had to cut your name from the list’.. WICKED…!!
Well… being a bit serious, I guess we all have to face this situation when we become 24+. Just because we have reached that age, I don’t think there should be a rush for the marriage. Your parents… relatives… neighbors… family friends… they start to worry about you. It’s good, you know. But some people are just being nosy. I have noted that. I guess the time will solve all things perfectly. I was thinking about my cousin sis. She found the most perfect and the most loving husband for her, in the end.
When I see my old school friends in FB, I tend to wonder about marriage too. Most of them are now married. Some are even having kids. Everyday, I see the relationship statuses changing from ‘Single’ to ‘In a Relationship’ to ‘Married’. Most of my friends are married now, I see. Loads of wedding in these few months and yet some more to come in the future!
