Same sex marriage no longer just a dream in Australia

Very exciting news! The LGBTIQ community will now be able to legalise their relationships and enter into married statuses! And I certainly hope that marriages between the people in love is a status quo, and not a trend. I must say that I am pleased that our community is really supportive, especially the Victorians; some of my local friends have even registered to vote just so they can do their part in the postal vote. My parents also voted "yes". 

Hearing the good news yesterday, and seeing all the rainbow coloured posts on social media yesterday; I thought - gee, I wonder when SSM will begin? I believe that the legal process would take 4 weeks, so it would be 8 Jan in the new year? This rough estimate closely aligns with the news title 'Same-sex marriage signed into law by Governor-General, first weddings to happen from January 9'.

Sooo eggcited! I can't wait to be a part of this evolution in history of marriages, and see more happy couples down our way =)
