How I Discovered I Am Short.

Cute SHORTS.

In high school everyone told me I was short
but I never believed them because I could always find someone shorter than me.
Now at college everyone still tells me I'm short,
especially my roommate, but she is 5"11, so she is taller than most people.
Recently I have realized I am the shortest person in my apartment.
I am a whole 4 inches shorter than the 2nd shortest person...
This is just one of the many events that took place
that truly made me realize how short I am.
Would you like to know what other events had to take place
for me to finally come to this catastrophic realization?
Yes?
Okay, you asked for it, here we go.

Event 1:
Last semester I went on a grocery trip to Wally World (Wal-Mart).
I was trying to read a label on the cranberry juice.
It was on the very top shelf.
So I decided it would be a good idea to jump and try to read the label while I was in the air?
Yeah, I know, I'm kind of genius.
Some guys walked past me laughing, and one of them asked if I needed help with something.
I thought my method of jumping was working wonderfully.
So I glared at him.
What a Jerk.

Event 2:
I found out to be a certified "little person" you have to be 4"10...
Let's just say I am not very much taller than that.
Danggit.

Event 3:
I noticed that every time I need to use a drinking fountain
I naturally gravitate to the shorter one...

Event 4:
My 13 year-old sister is taller than me by a few inches.
I am going to be 20 this year.
That is a problem.

Event 5:
This is the one that put all of the puzzle pieces together.
Today, I went to sit on the couch to start my art project.
When I sat down I sat all the way back.
I then noticed that my feet were dangling above the ground.
Even if I pointed my toes downward I still couldn't reach the ground.

Can you believe it has taken me this long to figure out that I am short?
Wow, this day has been life changing.
I am short.
