If you are reading this, you are probably, like me, a short girl. Barely breaking the 5 feet barrier, I take pride in the fact that I can wear 4-inch heels without looming over anyone and the fact that I will never have to worry about being taller than my future husband.
However, this doesn't mean I don't have problems with being short. Here are a few of the most annoying things about being dangerously close to qualifying as a legal midget.
1. “There is no way you're 21."
2. Clothes shopping.
3. Online clothes shopping.
4. “I forgot how short you were!"
5. Having to stand on the countertop to reach something.
6. Your feet don't touch the ground when you sit in a chair.
7. Have you ever tried to get the snow off of your car after a snowstorm? HA!
8. If you're not in the front row, you might as well just go home.
9. Baggy sweaters make you look like a potato sack.
10. My shoulder is not an arm rest. Enough.
11. Hugging tall people.
12. Babysitting 12-year-olds who are taller than you.
13. The sun visor doesn't even help you when you're driving.
14. You will never be able to fulfill your dream of being a model.
15. Having to jump up and down to see something because people are blocking you.
16. Maxi dresses.
17. Pants. Any pants.
18. You were never picked to be on anyone's team during gym class.
19. Not being able to stand in the pool.
20. Permanent neck pains from always looking up at people.
And last, but certainly not least,
21. "Awww, you're so cute!"
No. I am not a puppy.
