so i know of a couple of girls from my high school who had kids (and later got married) when we were around 18/19. at the time, i think i shrugged it off thinking that they were the anomalies. the odd ones. the one in a millions.
but there's something strangely different when you find out that a friend, someone you actually knew, hung out with and shared life moments with, who is born in the same calendar year (albeit being all but a few months younger), just got engaged to be married. to a good guy. a great guy.
it's really strange when i think that this friend was part of the same group of girls with whom talks over brunches just a year ago, would be centred around boys and finding the right kind of guy that God planned for us to be with.
she's found it. and don't get me wrong - i'm superbly happy for them both!
yet, reflecting on the news, i gotta admit. it's a little scary... isn't it? it means that the 88 babies have officially graduated into the "marriable-age-range". and that in itself, really really freaks me out!
a message to time: please slow down. i can't keep up! =p
