I wasn't saying you're illiterate. No illiterate could have written this. It does seem, though, that in today's education punctuation and grammar are given less attention than they used to. And while this may be OK for shorter texts (emails, text messages, and similar stuff), it makes longer texts (such as yours) barely readable sometimes.

Well, all I can say is I can relate to some of this. In some ways more, in some ways less. I guess all I can offer is that your 16 and have even more time then me (and I am only 18) :)

The thing about the jacket... while I cannot say that particular thing happened to me, I can relate many examples of a past experience of mine to that.
