I am a 5’2 college female, and I have to say: I love being short. Although I am sure that there are a variety of benefits to being tall, I wouldn’t trade my fun-sized height for the world. Here's why.

1. Whenever you’re too lazy to grab something that is out of reach, you can use the excuse that you’re too short and make someone else (aka someone tall), grab it for you.

2. You can wear any heels you want and not be concerned about how tall you look.

3. You can navigate easily through large crowds.

Trying to make your way to the front of a concert is easier when you’re small and can fit through small gaps of sweaty people.

4. Speaking of concerts, ever have that vision of sitting on a tall guy’s shoulders and overlooking the raging concert venue? This dream has a higher chance of becoming reality if you’re short.

5. You have more men to pick from if height is in your criteria.

6. Two words: Youth sizes.

Do you have that one pair of Nike shoes that you're eyeing, but your college budget won’t allow you to buy them? Well, pop right over to the kid's section and grab yourself the exact same pair in a youth size that you fit in. The perks? The same shoes are for half the price. This can be applied to anything from a shirt to accessories.

7. When you wake up in the morning, you never have to worry about stretching your entire body out in bed and having your feet dangle off the end.

8. Some clothing pieces that are considered shirts for taller people, can double as a dress for you.

9. You will look forever young.

As society, we have this notion that shortness equivalents to youth.

10. You’re always in the front row for pictures. Thus, people will always notice you first.

11. Depending on your current age, you can sometimes pull off being a kid and get the cheaper movie ticket.

12. If people try to offend you by calling you a "shorty," you can rebuttal by saying you’re a "shawty," (AKA: a fine ass woman), as defined by Urban Dictionary.

13. If your feet or legs ever hurt, people are willing to piggyback you to where you're heading.
