At 5 foot even, I am the shortest of all my friends. I have consistently been the shortest person in my class all though elementary, middle school, and high school. People used to reassure me by saying things like "
Good things come in small packages" or "
You are fun sized!"
Now people just look at me sympathetically as I try not to think about how they can probably see down my shirt.
The one great thing about being small, though, is being able to fit into kid size clothing. This would normally not be a big advantage for me, as I don't care to wear baby tees that say "Girl Power" in sparkly letters. But when it came time to buy my snowboarding gear, it came in REALLY handy.
MM and I headed to Sports Authority, and saved money on ski pants...

| MM: Awww you don't even fit into a youth XL! Me: *sigh* |
On waterproof gloves...

| I'm so glad they didn't say "Groovy" in glitter puff paint |
But apparently my head is beyond junior sized. The youth goggles were too narrow on my ginormous face, so we had to actually splurge on adult sized eyewear...
 |
| Does this mean I'm disproportionate? |
My only complaint with the youth ski pants is they are not super accommodating for my giant bubble butt. Although I suppose I'd be a little creeped out by kids' pants with so much extra room in the rear....
