going to the chapel.
It is oh so incredibly strange to me that in the past 24 hours two people I graduated with have gotten engaged. Even stranger is that my roommate asked his girlfriend of less than a year to marry him just two weeks ago. The older I get the more I feel as though I am becoming a minority. I feel a little left out. But I can't explain why. After all, I'm not even sure I ever want to be married. I like being free to do whatever I want, I don't want to have to come home every night. When I think about being held down I panic. Perhaps it's a fear of commitment, but I like to think of it as a fear of mediocrity. I suppose I just feel this little twinge of sadness creeping over me every time someone changes their facebook status to "is getting married!!!!!1!!" because no one really wants to be left out of the group. And I know before long people are going to start asking when I'm going to have a ring on my finger. Because it is what is expected of me...
