It's time again for the monthly game started by Toothfairy (yay, she's back!). The game is to share info about yourself on the 1st Sunday of every month. I'm a little late, but this month....
I like: Summer is in full-swing. Picnics, cookouts (strawberry cake), carnivals (funnel cake), and Father's Day (ice cream cake--sorry Kym). Eek, that was a LOT of cake! Better stick to fresh fruit and veggies the rest of the summer.
I don't like: Triple digit (F) temperatures. Ugh, but still better than 4 feet of snow. As Megan once said to me, "You don't have to shovel sunshine."
I want you to know: I got married @ 21. It's not for everyone, but it's worked out well for me. Life isn't one-size fits all. If family or friends say you're too young to do something (or you're "not getting any younger") listen to them, but make up your own mind. We each have to walk our own path in our own time.
I've planned: well, there's the singing thing.
I want to say to someone special: New experiences make life fun. I hope you find the right balance between enthusiasm and caution.
Blogs are acting up tonight--my comments on others are not showing up and other's comments here are not showing up. Weird.
ReplyDeleteThanks to notification e-mails, I know I recieved two comments:
coffretgorge:
i like that quote "you dont have to shovel sunshine." hehe :)
were waiting for your singing debut... i wonder what song you'll pick... :)
Shingo T:
Married at 21, that's young!
My views on marriage is simple. Get it done right, and there's one big load off your shoulders, and we can focus on bigger and better things, like careers, a deeper relationship with the spouse, and even kids!
I'm excited to see and hear you sing! :D
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the sunshine at the moment though I think we have a lot lower temperatures than you do.
ReplyDeleteDefinately agree with your last statement something I try to go by =)
I love summer :) i can do loads more things in the Summer than winter.
ReplyDeletehaha i can't wait for your 'singing thing' :]
um seriously what's up with the singing video...you keep talking but aren't showing. i want to see it. NOW! haha. don't tease me rick!
ReplyDeletehope you had a fun filled 4th of july!
Seeing the word SUMMER made me smile :)
ReplyDeleteI have a question, which I always ask my friends who got married, getting married, and will get married. How did you at know, at age 21, that she was already the one? I'm just curious.
Hahahhahaha, I too loved the "you don't have to shovel sunshine" thing! Great!
ReplyDeleteWell, since I never have to shovel anything here in Brazil... I hate summers! Summer here just never ends!
U got married at 21, how cute! I'm glad it's worked out for u guys!
And... what singing thing? I'm scared now...
sing sing sing! We're still waiting on your debut!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to use that quote too "you don't have to shovel sunshine" because it's sooo true!! though 3 digit temp readings are a bit much ><
Glad that you had a safe and fun holiday weekend! ^^
i wished i got married 8 years ago. or maybe not. i kinda believe that things happen for the best
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty cool that you got married at 21. WIsh I could get hitched at 22 or something. Too bad for me, at 21 I'm still floating around randomly.
ReplyDeleteHehehe, I don't even have a boyfriend, and I'm 23! XDD You married at an early age! And in your case it works! :-) You are a very good example! :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope this comment problem will be over soon! I so don't wanna miss one of your lovely comments! :-)
haha I agree, sunshine is better than snow anytime!
ReplyDeleteyes, life isn't 1 size fit all! :D and yeah it's way too hot here, damn heat wave....
ReplyDeleteI got married at 19 and my parents were very against it for a while. They got married in their mid-twenties so I think they expected the same from me. But in the end, we're living our own lives with our own timing as long as it's done right.
ReplyDeleteclothed much, a modest fashion blog
what can i say?
ReplyDeleteim looking forward to that singing thing:)
Great words of wisdom! Life isn't a one size fits all. We all have our own paths to follow.
ReplyDeleteWhat singing thing? Am I missing something?
boooo to you and your cakes! but actually... for my birthday, i requested we have ice cream cake from dairy queen so i will be a happy camper indeed! hehe! My dad was 19 when he married my mom and when i was younger, i would always use that against them when they didn't allow me to date someone because i was too young. haha! now i understand that yeah.. everyone has their own path, their own story. :D...and what is this singing thing!?
ReplyDeletegreat post..sure 21 is a young age for marriage but hey if it "fits" wear it! hehe and happy to hear that it works for you! and speaking about triple digit...nyc is burning like an oven for the past few days, for the first time i actually miss winter..and i'm still searching for that "balance" in life :)
