Married Life vs Singlehood

When u're single, u cant wait to get married and vice versa. Was having this conversation with my dearies during our last drinking session. And i was labelled AUNTIE coz i'm married..WTH! But well...i did the same when i was single too so, KARMA!hahah! But seriously..i would compare singlehood & married life to school days vs wking life. No? YES!!

When we were all back in sch, we all dream or wana grow up asap so that we can step into the wking world. Wearing nice clothes, putting on power make up, cool heels, earning $$ and doing all the adultsy stuff was juz so IN! But when we started wking, we'll ask ourselve WHY??? 'y didnt i study harder back then?' 'How i wish i can go back to sch', 'sch days were the best' and 'i seem to hv more $$ back then', more time hanging ard, more frds etc. But the ironic thing is...many will ultimately choose wk over sch for various reasons and since this entry's not abt further studying, i shall not..u know...whine & complain. I used to question myself too. Did i get married too early, too fast, too rush? And trust me, the initial stage was the toughest. Hving to adjust to married life, hving ur own home, living with a monster..ooops!, paying bills bills & bills, endless hsework and quarrelling over the minor-est matter. It was terrible. Kids have to start calling u AUNTY...WTF? THAT, till now i still cant get over can??! PARENTS!PLS!Doesnt mean married liao, kids gota start calling one aunty or uncle can? *roll eyes* They can only do they when i'm 30!or hmmm...make it 35!

But now, 2 yrs into married life, i'm kinda enjoying it. Not alot lot but at least i'm not complaining. I think, at the end of the day i sort of realise what's more impt in life. MArried life taught me to be tolerant, independent, compromising and enjoying the finer things in life, at the expense of losing alot of other stuff in life too such as 'bf turn husband' will start forgeting things like ur bday, anniversary day, vtine day. 'Bf turn husband' will not remember what presents are for anymore, flowers are a waste of $$, complaining that u have so much shoes till u can open a shop, turning into a spoilt brat expecting u to serve him dinner everyday. Instead, they'll remember very clearly when the bills are due, how much we spent on that LV bag. Ooops!

As we grow older, lotsa committment will start sinking it and they're super irritating. But hey, isnt that what life's all abt? The BIG man dun juz create us to enjoy life here, just that some will experience it earlier and sme much later. I'm smeone who believes firmly that everything in life's pre-destined, esp things like how long one can live, kids, who we end up with. It happens, it happens.

Ok,now i have no freaking idea how i shd end this entry. Hurhur. Aiya, the BIG Man will always leave us with options in everything we do. As long as we make our own choices, stick to it and make the best out of it, it really doesnt matter whether we're single or married. As long as we are happy with what we're doing, anything else..or what others think? Who cares!?!
