Totally Fictional Story

Once upon a time, a person named Leelu felt like something was missing in her life. She was bored by a mother who grew tired of her name Wally Wonka Streppophonivich. Leelu's mother had stated "I want a new name people can relate to and stop calling me a guy over. Oh dear, what the heck was wrong with my Russian dad." Leelu's grandmother on the maternal side was a Thai-German type of mixed ethnicity.

After Leelu heard so many private complaints from her mom while growing up, her surname was finally legally changed to Popper. From having a cloudy family history and being raised by a single parent, Leelu started questioning her family origin. She started to feel that she wanted to belong to one ethnicity and feel close ties with one nation. From having plenty of American friends, she eventually felt that the United States was a place where diversity belonged to- not to mention her personal excitement over the election of the first non-White President Obama. After starting out a little rough in her studies from being constantly distracted and ridiculed by children for having a pale-white complex with blue eyes and golden brown hair, she found a few friends to keep in touch with and became a straight A student and entered the Dean's List.

 Due to Leelu's background, instead of going to an expensive college where scholarships would not come by often due to budget cuts, and because of her pretty stable position working as a general manager of a convenience store, she decided to attend a school where most of her friends went.
While she was in a spiritless state surfing on the Internet looking at steamy photos of attractive men and after having a daily routine of turning down dates from average, unemployed male students, she decided that she needed to go on vacation.

Fast forward because the narrator of this story is getting really turned off by continuing this story- Leelu turned into a hypocritical and philosophical junkie who struggled with lots of conflicting views such as between pleasing men or feminism  and eventually had to settle with learning to coexist with others while appreciating differences in people. She is currently in the process of settling down with a good man even though she doesn't really seem to stress it that much from not having really caught anyone's eye anymore.
