The thing that shocked me the most was that she said to me that, me and her son [my boyfriend] should get married!!!! I was like WHAT!!?!??! You gotta be kidding me, right?!?!! She was then like, "You can still study when you're married. It would be nice if there was someone to look after K when he's at home. Cook him some homemade soup and look after him in general." I just didn't know what to say after that... Just sat there kinda shocked and speechless. She also mentioned that, she and her husband [K's parents] could move up to Auckland as well, cos K's older sister is in Auckland too, and so they don't have to live in Palmy by themselves as they can't speak English that well, and needed to rely on us young[er] ones.
To be honest, I don't mind marrying him. It's just a little TOO early to be thinking about that. I mean I'm still VERY young and I do not intend to get married ALREADY! I have a lot I want to do before I stay really committed to the relationship. I mean, I'm not saying that I'm not committed right now, it's just that the situation would most likely turn into: get married → have kids → become a housewife → no time for self etc etc. And that is not what I want... Not yet anyways.
I mean, we plan on moving in together after I graduate from uni anyways.. So there's no rush to get married yet. When we move in together, we'll see each other everyday and I'll be able to look after him and he will be able to look after me. It's just it'll be a year until we get to move in together. But I'll be moving up to Auckland of course. I'm trying my best to pass every single one of my papers without fail. My goal is to graduate, move up to Auckland and live with my boyfriend.
So marriage? Hmmm... No thanks. Not for now sorry, Aunty! :/
