If it makes you happy no thats not weird. When my boyfriend broke up with me I changed someone elses name in my contact to his name so when they would text me I would get happy for a split second but I knew it wasnt him. Do whatever you can do to make yourself happy during your break up.
I know how horrible it feels.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
