My best friend's wedding (well, one of my best friends)
One of my best friends got married last Sunday. It was the first time I've EVER cried at a wedding. Well, I actually cried at the end of the reception, but that's a first for me, too. When I gave her a hug, she pretty much thanked me for everything and said that she didn't wanna see me cry, because that would make her cry and ruin her make-up. Now, THAT, pretty much, spelled disaster for MY make-up because I started crying as soon as she said that.Considering how much my best friend hates being the center of attention, she looked positively radiant on her wedding day. She and her HUSBAND (I have to get used to that now) were so happy to finally "take the plunge" into wedded bliss. :)
In a few months, they'll be living halfway around the world, taking their MBAs and starting their married life away from everyone here. I guess that's what made the wedding so emotional. Now that the wedding was over, there's nothing left to plan. Nothing can keep our minds off the fact that they were leaving. Most of the people ther (if not EVERYONE) probably had mixed emotions about the whole thing. On one hand, we were just so happy to see two people, who happen to be so crazy about each other (and so right for each other), to make the commitment to spend the rest of their lives together, but, at the same time, we were also faced with the possibility that this might be the last time we'd get to be with them for the next year, or so.
They deserve the best. They've worked hard and have gone through so much to be where they are. I know that they'll do well in their respective MBA programs. I also know that they'll have a great marriage. No matter how much I might miss them, I know that I'll see them again soon. I wish them all the best that life has to offer. :)
