getting old??

so this past weekend my lovely sister came back from hk. i was so happie to see her. it was so nice just to be able to hang out with her and talk like we used to. sisters are like ur best friend, u just can't live without them!!
anyhoos, so this weekend i went down by the beaches for a nice lunch with a couple of old friends in a small but really really good little restaurant. it was really great to hang out with them and catch up on things. to my surprise, i found out many people that i know are planning to get married (they are either engaged or planning to get engaged). wow. makes me think that we are all really growing up. i'm still waiting for one of my sisters to tell me that they are engaged. now that would be so exciting!
it is still kind of scary to meet up with your friends and talk about where to buy a ring, what kind of cut, and how to propose to someone. whatever happened to "hey! let's all ride our bike to the Beckers around the corner for freezies?" ah...those days were fun. but i guess in life there isn't really a rewind button or a button to slow down events. so let's face it. we are getting old. i can imagine a couple years down the road my friends telling me that they are going to have kids and the convos will shift from rings and proposals to diapers and name choosing.
well, all i can say is ha! i'm not yet at the stage of rings and proposals, so i guess i can still be considered young. so for all my other friends ha!! ur old!! but then again CONGRATS!! u guys are all really lucky to have found your other halves! :O)
after this past weekend, i realize that i really should try to stay in touch more with my friends. so i think i will try my hardest to do that. i had a great weekend and i hope the upcoming one will be as great.
the beaches is so nice (eventhough it was sooo cold when we went for lunch). i said i'd get a house down by there just cuz it's so beautiful there. haaaaaa! that'll be awhile....i'm sure of it!

"I guarantee there will be problems. I guarantee that at one time, one or both of us would want out of this relationship. But I also guarantee that if I don't ask you to be mine, I'll regret it for the rest of my life. Because in my heart I know that you are the only one for me." ~ Richard Gere

ah...richard gere...he knows just how to "lum" a girl...
