It's that time of the year again...

Yes, it's that time of year again... Closing accounts and wedding invitations in abundance! November-December... yuck!

Working in finance means that we get quite busy at the office at the end of the year, trying to finish all the payments needed. Extra pressure this year because I don't have a boss right now. Old one got promoted and we're still waiting for the replacement. Last I heard, it might be in January. Uhuks!

Weddings... not a big fan of attending weddings. I hate going alone. It's quite hard to get someone to accompany me since everyone else is busy too. Plus, I have a tendency to cry at weddings... well, my close friends' weddings at least.

I like the planning part of weddings, but I try to avoid the function itself. I like shopping for the dress, flowers, gifts etc. But i don't like being at the wedding itself. Why? I'm not sure... Maybe because I feel so lonely when I see the happy couple, I guess. In my head, when a friend marries, everything will change. You can't go out like you used to because he/she has to spend time with family. If you're lucky, their spouses won't mind if you go out together for dinner or something once in a while. But, if you're friend is the opposite sex, you run the risk of their wives being jealous. So of course, slowly you stop seeing each other and soon all contacts are cut off. You lose a good friend...
