Tea parties? Where? And why wasn't I invited?!

Short is... darn, there's no nice alliteration in English, er... short is nice. I like being short, it was either that or having been unhappy for the last 25 years. I only hated being small in gym, because we were ranked by size and guess who always stood up front and had to start all those exercises with the entire class looking? I obviously disliked gym.

How about, short is sweet? Or, if you go the other way, short is sh....

There are some tiny girls in my class. There are three girls in my 15-person section who literally don't reach the ground. One in particular will be demonstrating something on the blackboard and realise she has to reach up high, and get this silly forlorn look on her face. 'Why?'

I was the shortest in kindergarten until another girl joined the class who was much shorter than me. After that, I was medium. I'm like 5'3" now. For the longest time I was 4'11" and one of my friends called me a dwarf because of my LotR obsession, even though I insisted on being called a hobbit. I would like to be taller. 5'5" or 5"6" would be nice.

I like being tall now (5'8"), but didn't like it when I was younger and shy-er.

I'm 5' 5". Probably not going to grow much more. I don't mind.

Anyway. I saw Men in Black recently. I now have a new favorite personal weapon: the flashy memory thing! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! And yes, I would consider that a weapon. See this little red light? *FLASH*

Wow Hector, that is from quite a ways off.

Anyways, I like being short at some times, it allows me to be a jockey. Or it used to, my health isn't as good as it should be now, and before I damage myself further, I'd rather heal.

But hell, I'm unusually tall for a jockey, these guys are midgets! However, since they are mostly (read: all) male, they have problem keeping the weight down, where as I have no problem at all. Yea for lighter females!
