We all know that being short can sometimes sucks. There's the part where jeans always have to be either folded or hemmed to fit us properly, how always have to look up to people at eye level, never catching up with others during a race... The list goes on and on, but what if we turned this thought around and looked at the bright side of it? If you think about it, there are actually many awesome things about being short!


1. You always have leg room.

Whether it's in the car, plane, or the couch, go ahead and spread those legs because your tiny legs won't keep you from sacrificing comfort.

2. You can wear heels without fear of towering over anyone.

This point is especially if you're on a date with a guy, and you fear that you might end up taller than him. Even with six-inch heels, you're still good to go.

3. You're always put in the front for group pictures.

As they say, "pics or it didn't happen." You never have to worry about being cut off in pictures.

4. You will always get assistance with lifting heavy objects.

It's always nice to get help when you're carrying something twice your weight or size or both. Note to tall people: please help out your fellow short people, we all truly appreciate it.

5. Maxi Skirts = Dresses

In a rush to class or work? Need a quick outfit? Pull up a maxi skirt and you've got a knee-length dress! Put on a jacket if you're feeling chilly, and you're all good to go!

6. Cuddling is the absolute best thing.

Couch time with bae is more comfortable for both when you're short, since there's more room for both of you. Here's to hours of Netflix marathons while being little spoon.

7. You have less leg space to shave.

We all know that shaving is the worst, no matter how often you do it. With shorter legs, you're able to finish much quicker and continuing with your life sooner.

8. You use tall people as shields.

When it's raining, snowing, sleeting or hailing, go ahead and grab your favorite tall person, and use them as a shield from the elements.

9. Finding a place to nap is no problem.

Any bed, couch, corner, desk makes a great place to nap whenever you're in need of one.

10. Your personality makes up for your lack of height.

Everyone knows that short people are usually the nicest and most outgoing. You won't regret befriending a short person!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
