My Friend's Getting Married!!!!

A few days ago... right before one of the more important exam, my friend kindly delivered a very HUGE bomb on my doorstep... --> He's getting married!

Why was it and still is a bomb? Simply because it was and still is a shock and huge surprise to everyone of us... We had simply not expected him to get hitched so soon! Everyone around us are declaring that they won't get married till when they hit the big 30 or at least at some age hovering around the big 30... And he, although not one of the big 30 guy, was just never one (at least it seemed to us) to get hitched at 24!

The world as it is, is changing so fast that there's just so much that is different from 10 years ago... the institution of marriage being one of them. There is now a book (or was it a study) that indicates that half the babies being born in (i think its the US) are born out of wedlock. Less and less people are getting married, but people are still having sex... Can this be considered a drop in morals? Meanwhile, the US government is unwilling to legalise gay marriages. Why would you want to stop people who are willing to work at being together from being legally together? The rest of your population has the rights to do it and don't want to do it anyways... weirdos...
