So I just had the strangest moment, where I got up to go brush my teeth after watching three episodes of Gilmore Girls (I only planned on watching one, but so it goes with Gilmore Girls, it seems) and look in the mirror and find myself totally shocked to see...well, my face. It isn't that I was expecting someone else's - it's just that I subconsciously had an image in my mind of what my face looks like, and my face didn't look like that.
I don't know what it was, but I felt like my face looked rounder, and my eyes looked bigger, and my lips were all red like I'd just been eating a Ring Pop or something, but all I've had to eat since dinner was an apple, and that had nothing to do with it. Anyway. That's unrelated.
The point is - have you ever had one of those moments? Where you look in the mirror and just have to stare at yourself for a second, trying to make sense of it? I don't know if that's normal, having moments like that. And I don't mean in a philosophical way - like 'wow, I'm not the person I wanted to be' - but I mean honestly, like you're looking at a body double who's almost perfect.
And who looks awfully confused.

Maybe it was watching three episodes of Gilmore Girls?
And no, never. Once in a while I'll wake up, go wash up and be like "...Damn." and poke at my cheeks and regret all those cookies, but... not quite how you're saying it.

it's actually happened to me. feels really, really weird. i've only recently realized my face HAS changed from the time I was 12 until now (i'm nearly 17, how time flies...). i guess since you see your face every day, you don't pay attention to it...and then one day it's like whoa, who are you?
