Married with...Exams?

Married with...Exams?

I only have two exams left, thank goodness. I don't think I can take anymore of this stress. Gives you the weirdest dreams. Last night I dreamt that I was engaged to some guy and I didn't want to be. He came to my parents and asked to marry me, and because this was a dream reality and not reality reality, they said yes! Without asking me first! I was so upset. I tried to run away from the wedding, but my brother stopped me. Then he and my parents went on and on about how it was my duty and it was childish of me to try and escape. Freud wouldn't have to dig very deep to see that this was not about marrying some stranger, but the pep talk I give myself when I feel like not taking my exams. I hate taking tests; I have such intense text anxiety. Today, when I finished reading one of the exam questions, the flesh under my left eye began to twitch uncontrollably. That only happens to me when I am extremely nervous. Anyhow, I took a deep breath and told myself it would all be over soon (a little like what Alan does, I suspect). And there it is - it is gonna be over soon, and I console myself with the fact that if I don't pass, I have another shot in October. Phew. Hmmm, my dream got me thinking. I don't think I'm ever going to get married (too much hassle for me), but of course, being the list-lover that I am, I do have some possibles, if perhaps the sperm bank rejected me and I wanted to have kids. Just for kicks.

Top Five People I'd Consider Marrying
1. The Man Who Broke My Heart - as pathetic as this may sound, if he asked, I'd do it. We'd get married, have 2.5 kids, a cute dog (even though I'm allergic to fur) and a cute little house (no white picket fence though, haven't seen those in Thailand).
2. Sorayut Sutassanadajinda - Thailand's foremost journalist and pundit; the man is seriously on the tube like 16 hours a day and he's also in the papers, magazines and he's got books coming out the wazoo. He is definitely the man of the hour, the guy everyone wants to comment on politics, knocked-up celebrities and poisonous bamboo shoots. And he is damn adorable! Those glasses, those Chinese features, that firm, take-no-prisoners interview style! All serve to make my heart beat faster. I wouldn't care if he proposed with a plastic gumball machine ring - I'd marry him.
3. Ryan Phillipe/Jake Gyllenhaal - either of them would be fine, because I'd do it for the same reason: total hottie! Plus, having a total babe as a father may up my kids chances of looking halfway attractive.
4. Darren Hayes - coz he writes some of the most romantic lyrics I've ever heard and I am sure I'd score at least one song dedication. I'm also sure he'd manage a super-romantic proposal, which would have a fantastic retell quality. You know, the kind of story that gets people to say, "That is sooooo sweet! I am soooo jealous!"
5. Zach Braff - or rather, I'd marry his character J.D. on Scrubs. I just love the mix of clever and quirky, masculinity and vulnerability. It is such a turn-on. But I can't marry a fictional character, so I'll settle for the guy who portrays him. And I just know, in real life, he's a much more macho guy than he is on the show and I just love that.

Final thought: I think it just shows how pathetic I am that if Number 1 on my list proposed to me with a ring made out a chewing gum wrapper, twenty baht in his wallet and no plans for the future, I'd still say yes. Am I a hopeless romantic?

yes, you have stated the obvious my dear.. you're pathetic-slash-hopelessromantic. :) but in reality, how would you like it if you'd receive a ring made out of chewing gum wrapper or something? whew! but hell yeah, i guess if you really love the person that won't matter. but having no plans at all for the future is another thing. i'd definitely shake yer head if i'm your friend! lol

The Five PPL you'd consider marrying?
1. Saw him today with his new cute little puppy. Don't know what you see in him. Look like a total arsehole to me ;)

2. I think he's already married - to the TV!

3. The former one is married to a total ditz so yeh good luck trying to steal that from her. The latter one is questionable (hint: bi-curious)

4. Poof.

5.Good Choice but he's dating Mandy Moore so he's bad taste and you shouldn't be associated with that ;).

And what is this about your secret dinner with Alan? A romantic evening you're looking forward to?
