Sorry, I can't make it in today, I've come down with something very serious.
(Saint Etienne - The Way I Fell For You)

Recently people have been asking me when I plan to get married. The question I suppose, isn’t too shocking and surprising considering I’m 28 and all my friends are knotted, or in the process of tying the knot. The key word in the question though is plan. For as long as I’ve known, I’ve always been taught to plan ahead and to plan for the future.

But the kicker is nothing ever goes as planned.

So my response to these people is that marriage is something I don’t think you can plan and that I hope to one day wake up and be stricken by the marriage bug. Since nothing I do goes as planned, I hope to have an unplanned wedding.

I think Sonia’s parents will be thrilled to hear that.
...

I have great friends who are extremely supportive and stand by me through thick and thin. This Christmas I’d like to thank every one of them!

Especially Vi, who was kind enough to say this to me the last time we spoke…

"oh Khiem, everytime I think of you, I always want to suggest intensive psychotherapy"

You guys are the best!

I was reading through some of my old blogs from last September and I wanted to revive this one...

Here are the 7 Jeopardy categories that define me…
1) Sports and more sports.
2) Reading and writing are fun.
3) The sound of music.
4) The passive aggressive war of 2002/2003.
5) A generation without faith.
6) Comfort "zone".
7) Two roads diverged in the woods and I got lost.

What are the 7 categories that define you?

How scary is it that we both have links to Emotion Eric on our blogs? I think one day I will ask him to marry me. Hehe, meeting him first might be a prerequisite, however. Thanks for leaving a note. I've got a link to your blog up now because I think you're really fun and interesting.

Anywho I am stealing your jeorpardy question. It shall be the topic of my next post.
