Completely normal, everyone sees that. It is background electrical noise in the retina, shadows of red blood cells through the retinal vessels and shadows of structures in the vitreous.
I'm an optometrist
I experience EXACTLY the same as what you describe!!! And I'm 16 so we're practically the same age. I've been wondering for a while about this, so I'll be watching to see if you get any useful responses. I was googling it once, and came up with "Visual Snow" which looks a lot like what I see. Is it the same for you? Here's some websites i found:

I hope these help! The last one in particular is useful because it shows exactly what I (and possibly you) see. As far as I can tell, there's not cure, but its not life threatening or dangerous, so i guess we should count ourselves lucky :D
Hope all that helped! :)
My own experiences...
