I love the fact that not a single day in my life is normal.

Today at my local library a random man, in his late 50's, came up to me from behind and said "I'm sorry, you look like my ex, but from 20 years ago". Being the awkward person I am, I couldn't help but just look at him and smile. So I said the dumbest thing ever- "Really?" and laughed continually. It was a very weird moment, considering he was probably reminiscing about times with her. But it did get me thinking: I wonder what she must have been like, personality-wise, and why they broke up.

Also, speaking of break-ups and on the topic of singledom (yes it is a word- according to me) I'm becoming a total Valentine's Day grinch. I'm a lonely, single teenager who can't seem to find someone that's even remotely interested in me. I've honestly never dated, and even though I don't plan to for a while (for personal reasons) all the cutesy yet simultaneously disgusting romance advertisements and ads are getting to me. It's a nice idea, and all, but the commercialization of it all is obnoxious. Here's a little link for all you grinches out there...

Topic Switch-up: My family is and has been struggling financially for years now; even before the 2008 crash ever happened. I hate how everything in this world is based on money. Money tears people apart, even families, and I hate seeing this happen to those I love. But I've tried to maintain a positive point of view. I mean, eveything happens for a reason, right? I keep telling myself that; but have yet to fully understand why.
