when I'll be 25

I know it's been forever. I admit my laptop and I are not having quality time lately, which is good (don't you think?). I am always out, living the life. It made me remember this conversation my mom and dad had while I was preparing to go out:

Dad to my mom: It's better if she'll (referring to me) marry young, maybe a year from now, so that we still have strong knees to run around with our grandchildren.

Mom to my dad: No. It's too young. Maybe when she's 25 (said in a way for me to hear)...

Me: *took my purse on my way out trying to ignore their ridiculous effort of deciding my marrying age for me*

Mom to me: Where are you going?

Me: Enjoying the remaining 2 years and 2 months of being single.

(at Central Park, chillin' with my friend)

There's just one thing I can say: 
I'm single, a guy should be pretty amazing to change that. :)

I love what you said. and i think single means fabulous. i always feel single tho i have amazing boyfriend now. relationships come and go -only one relationship is for the rest of the life and is with yourself. I think all of us need to cherish that relationship more.
