am decidedly quite ok with turning 25 next week. formerly thought with the advent of turning 1/4 of a century old, nothing fun or exhilarating will ever happen to me, but found out that THE most important things will come AFTER turning 25. in no chronological order: first real career. first (and hopefully one and only) husband. first family. first kid. first house. first owned pets. as in, really owned, not family's. first car.
when you think about it, it can be pretty scary. a lot of different committments coming down my path. the journey so begins. getting that first real salaried paycheck (can you smell the bills .. mmmm). driving in that first scion car ... (oh yeah..) living in that 2000 sq.ft. house.. i think i CANT WAIT, actually!
close friend of mine told me that she would start a bridal folder for me. i told her she can do whatever she pleases because i am not planning on delving into that part of life until i have been formally asked. all the same - it has been fun. when asked for different things, most of which i really havent put much thought into, toying around with these ideas have made me look forward to turning 25 more and more. i suppose one would say that i have found myself an unofficial 'wedding planner'. kinda funny huh.
bear with me for a while. envision this.
the air is a little heavier, with the first falling of the autumn leaves. around here, that would be some time in october. see a garden filled with yellowish & brownish trees, pond in the background (perhaps with little duckies and swans swimming around, before they have to fly south). color scheme.. oo, i duno, perhaps off-white or goldenish, to match the coming of the sunset and the season. (envisioning this taking place around 4pmish). bridesmaids glowing in beautiful red gowns, with tresses of golden hair falling off their exposed necks. groomsmen looking brilliant in their tuxedos. guests seated in white wooden chairs. flowers of different shades of red, yellow, and white everywhere. hmm.... havent thought about the music, shall consult the planner shortly... =)
haha ... take a breather. who knows when this may happen. i ought to have planned this earlier while i was growing up. most women know what they want. im only beginning to figure it out ..
