The List

The other day, I sat with a colleague who is more desperate than I am to get hitched. She knows what she wants and she is determined to get it by repeat prayer. Whereas I am not quiet sure if getting hitched is the answer. I know I want to find a lobster but do I really want to get married to them, become the faithful obedient wife and bear their children? Don't misunderstand me. I am no notorious flirt, neither am I the boring nerd some think I am. I simply am enjoying my single status right now so much. Way too much. I loved being able to get into my car with some friends, drive all the way to a resort and enjoy the beach without a care in the world, or worries about being allowed to go and how long to stay. My time is my own to waste. My decisions are my own to make. But most importantly, my life is my own to live the way I wish.

Anyways, we were acting foolish and girly and jotted down 10 traits we'd like in our future hubby's . She wrote hers down in less than a minute. It took me a lot longer and I'm not even sure if those 10 traits are the one that I truly one. So here's another shot.

If God decides to give me a lobster, here's what I think I would like:

1) Accepts me with all my faults
2) Patient
3) Educated
4) Kind-hearted
5) Strong
6) Respects me and is proud of me
7) Fit & well-dressed
8) Enjoys travelling
9) Very well off
10) Well-endowed

A girl is allowed to dream. After all, wasn't it Walt Disney who said: If you can dream it, you can make it. [insert FFWD April 2010: So dear child, does The One fit your list? Easily I'd say, because right now he is perfect in your eyes]

Till we meet again,
Sedeso
