From Miss to Mrs

It's almost 3 months since I got married. There have been some adaptations going on in the house, in our family and also inside myself but so far things are working fine. Now come back to think, I found it rather stupid for worrying too much previously of not being able to adapt to the changes after getting married. Well basically life has been more or less the same as before I got married except for these:

First of all, I'm no longer called by the name "Miss" Ma. I'm either Mrs Chia or Madam Ma nowadays. And my name doesn't appear on the envelope of wedding invitations anymore if people were to invite both of us. They will write Mr and Mrs Chia. (>_<)

Secondly, friends who are still single don't really ask me out for movies or for fun after I got married. To them, I'm the married woman @有夫之妇, so they assume I'll be too busy cleaning house or have to accompany husband. Only Nana will ask me out sometimes (because she is no longer 'Miss' too).

Thirdly, I used to rank 4th in my own family if it comes to cleanliness (better than bro antz only) and now I'm suddenly number 1 in our own home. HG asked if I could lower my standard a bit. But I just can't help it as it feels so great when you see the kitchen or living room clean and tidy. But don't get me wrong, I'm not really the demanding kind of woman who clean the house everyday that there's not even a single bit of dust on the floor. Frankly, I don't like doing housework and I only do it when I have to (unlike Nana who mop her floor every week. Haha).

I'm pretty afraid of losing my freedom previously but in fact after getting married I have more freedom in terms of deciding what I want to do now. Well you see, the previous 'government' is not here to control and I'm the government now. I decide when I want to sleep or watch TV or eat or online. I get to decide whether or not to sweep the floor or fold the clothes or not doing them at all. HG basically respects me as an equal and give me lots of freedom in the house. Well, sometimes he does nag a bit but I don't normally listen. (>_^)

I have to admit that with more freedom there usually comes more responsibilities too. I used to be only myself and a daughter, but now I'm also some one's wife. I have to get involve in some of the decision making of the house, help maintain the house and also discipline myself and behave like an adult. Time for me to care as least and leave all things to mum and dad is bygone. Anyway, I'm adapting willingly because I know it's time for me to grow up.
