I was not blessed in the height department. At a solid 5 feet 4 inches, I was never one to tower over my friends. I had always considered myself of average height until coming to college, where suddenly I was surrounded by giants. Little do these giants know that there are many difficulties that short girls face, like . . .
When you’re walking as fast as you can but your short strides are no match for the giants that surround you
When you need something on the top shelf but you have trouble reaching it
When you have to automatically reach for the “short” jeans on the shelf

. . . or the worse feeling of being stuck between the “short” and “regular” sizes
When your shoulders are being used as arm rests by your giant friends
When you develop severe neck pain from craning your neck to look at your giant friend in their eyes
When you get mistaken for being a teenager

But ladies, not everything about being short is so bad. Some of the benefits include . . .
The possibility of being able to wear children’s shoes/clothing (which are so much less expensive than giant’s clothing)
Dresses that maybe short on giants will not be short on you
Making your way through a crowd is easy
No ducking through doorways
Wearing heels is always an option because your date is usually taller than you
No matter what height you are, enjoy it ladies! Love yourself!
