Perks Of Being Short.....ish

So I just remembered reading my friends blog post on the perks of being tall, and that got me thinking. I'm 5'3" and thats apparently considered "Short"

Insert awkward cricket noise.... here. 

So I was thinking, I mean there has to be some perks to being small, right? The answer is an obvious yes. So here you go, the perks of being shortish by moi. 

1. Hugs are actually normal. 

Everyone has had that one hug that feels ridiculously weird because of the height difference. Well, I get those a lot. Partially because I'm around 5-9 inches shorter than most of my friends. 

2. You can fit into small short places.

It'll be useful someday. I can feel it. 

3. You're closer to the ground!
I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22! JK, but seriously, I like being close to the ground. 

4. Finding guys taller than you is easy!
 I like guys that are taller than me, thank you (:

5. Being able to fall asleep anywhere.
and I do mean anywhere. 

Woo! so there you have it! The perks of being short! 

Wait. There are also down sides to being short. 

Goddamn it.

1. Concerts? More like Hell.
Concerts SUCK. No one lets you see anything! Like help a hobbit out, bro. 

2. Walking with taller friends.
Like three of my steps equals one step for them. 

3. Shorty Jokes. 
These are three of my nicknames. Like come on. I'm not THAT short. 
Hobbit
Midget
Fun Sized

4. Being angry is "cute" 
yeah. It's all fun and games until I slap you. -_-t

5. Feeling like you don't fit in.
It's really sad when you're with a bunch of friends and they're all taller than you. It really makes you feel like you don't fit in. :(

So I should probably stop my pointless rant now...
