Being short has some perks, but also quite a few downfalls.

10 Life Problems Every Short Girl Can Relate To

Short girls; we face so many struggles in life. We can't reach this, these clothes don't fit, or our feet can't touch the ground when we're sitting. We usually have to have someone taller than us get what we need, grab a step stool, or just climb the counters. Sometimes, people see us as being cute because we are tiny, but no. They are wrong, because we may be tiny, but we are fierce little fighters! Can you relate to any of these life problems?

1. We have to crawl on the counters to reach the top shelf.

You know that yummy bag of cookies? Well look up. They're on the top shelf, and you know what that means: YOU GOTTA CLIMB FOR THEM. Honestly, it feels like I'm climbing Everest for the darn bag.

2. When we're sitting in a chair and our feet can't touch the ground.

When you're in class or at your home desk, your feet just barely touch the ground. Even if the chair is on the lowest height setting, they still don't touch.

3. Pants are always too long.

You find that perfect pair of skinny jeans and try them on in the dressing room and WAM BAM! They are so long they cover your feet.

4. Mini dresses become normal dresses.

There was this really cute summer dress that I saw in the store once, and when I tried it on, it looked like it was almost a maxi dress on me.

5. When we're shopping at the store and that one can is on the top shelf.

You're either climbing the shelves or standing on the cart in order to get that can of tomato soup.

6. Sometimes we have to shop in the petite section.

This isn't a bad thing, but it is kind of annoying because we will always want that one dress in the shop window. But when you try it on, it's either too long or the short sleeves become long sleeves.

7. We can't ride those awesome roller coasters.

As much as we love roller coasters, there are only a small few that we can actually ride. Oh well, safety first, I guess.

8. We have to stand on our tip-toes to kiss our SO.

I mean, this can be a problem. But sometimes it's cute.

9. Some animals just look enormous to us.

Like, did you see that Great Dane? He's bigger than me.

10. We have to be close to the steering wheel.

We are so short, we have to be as close as possible to the steering wheel. I know this for a fact.

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
