Wow...
This weekend, I realized that I know nothing about love and/or weddings.
On Saturday, I went to my mom's friend's bridal shower. That was the first time I've ever attented a bridal shower in my life and needless to say everything was so new to me...except the food. When we started playing this pictionary-like game, I couldn't guess anything because it was all wedding related. I didn't feel stupid, I just felt lost and completely out of place.
Then yesterday, Sunday, my parents' friends had a renewal of vows after the church service. Again, it all looked so weird to me...but the food, which was served after the ceremony. Seriously, I don't know what to do in these events. I mean, the groom (or whatever, I don't know) was the one who came up to me to shake my hand and then I told him, "Good JOB!" With so much pride too. Pathetic. Then I realized, I could have just simply said congratulations. It would have been a more appropriate thing to say.
Useless.
After that we went to Niagara Falls, the freaking honeymoon capital of the world. It just had to end with Niagara Falls to further emphasize my dried out romantic life. There were a lot of couples holding hands and doing stuff couples should do...privately. I was obviously by myself but I wasn't like, "Poor Denise. She's going to be a crazy cat lady." Nah, I could care less because I just don't get it. Meh.
I gotta be honest though, sometimes I do feel like a hopeless romantic, but most of the time, I'm just pretty clueless.

The last time I went to a wedding, I cried through the whole thing. It was my teacher's wedding, and I knew no one else there but her. -_-;;
I guess I felt out of place too. I cried not because I was touched, but because I didn't want to be there. But still, through the whole thing? Ack.
