5'2, and only 13. Mwuhaha. I'm actually, one of the smallest in my class. x] Today, my friend was complaining about being shorter than Mrs. Townsend, the 7th grade Math Teacher. I was laughing, and when we compared heights, I was taller than her. She got a bit depressed afterwords. >.>;;

I'm sixteen, and 5'4, or least I was the last time I checked.

When I was 12... People use to think I was older by a few years.

I'm 5'3 and almost 19. ;_____;
The only friends I had at my same height were my asian friends. xD
And I have a cute young little face. ;O; Got my baby fat prolly xD
So people try giving me kids meals at restaurants and mistaking me for a high school freshman even though i'm not D:<

I was one of the taller kids in class when I was growing up. I remember being gigantic in 5th grade D:< I must've stopped growing then. >O> It sucks lololol.

I'm 5' 11" so I don't have the same problems but it still isn't a walk in the park. I was tall at a really young age so find clothes or shoes was a huge pain. Plus walking into any older house can be painful since the doorways were made much shorter.

Now my sister is 5', or at least she says she is but I tend to think she is wearing some thick shoes durning the measuring.
Anyways, she has the hardest time finding pants to wear (shirts are fine since she can buy in the kids section), and bras as the poor girl is super skin with a huge chest.
She can't reach anything on a high shelf, but she can climb up a shelf in less time then it takes me to lift my arm up that high.
She also has a hard time driving. To reach the pedals she has to move the seat as far forward as it will go, and then just barely reach. Then if the seat does not move up, like in my car, she has a hard time seeing over the dashboard/steering wheel.
She was even carded once when she bought gas. She was just taller then the counter and the guy asked her where her mother was. She said she was the driver and he didn't believe her and asked to see her driver's license.
Poor girl

Unfortunately it's not possible to get shorter - and I never gain any weight either!

Nerd Hugger 11-06-2009 08:49 PM

I'm 5'5" (I think?), but I usually feel really tall because I'm taller than almost all of my friends. But my boyfriend is 6', and I like feeling short next to him.

It got me SOO angry the other day when a kid who was in Gr.7 comes up to me and asks me "Are you in Gr.6?" I was like WHAT?!?!? And every restaurant I go too, they always but me down for a kid instead of teen. I hate it sometimes but I love it all the other times! Especially when I'm getting hugs while I'm cold..they always make me warmer xD Haha x ^ ^

Tsutsuna 11-06-2009 09:01 PM

I was a tall kid in elementry school, but I pretty much stopped growing in 5th grade.
So I'm 19 and I'm at a height of 5'2", I don't know it may be 5'3" now....

I can't reach the back of the shelves at home.....>.>

Zora 11-07-2009 02:10 AM

I'm a 19 year old female I'm 5'9" i was 5'6" in the eighth grade. When i was in middle school i got hit on by so many guys who thought i was in high school and sometimes college. My own mother is 5'3" and i only have ever had one friend who was taller then me my two best friends in the world are twins and they are 5'2" my tallest boyfriend was only and inch taller then me. the one bath room at the college i go to is made for handicapped people which is nice but it's sink and hand dryer are below my hip's i feel like a giant half the time and it makes me said.

my friend is only 2 months older than me and is 5"10 so it sucks for her there are only 3 people that are taller than her at school

Bunai 11-08-2009 10:59 AM

-26
-5"4

I should be taller like my parents, but for some reason I stopped growing

Linnea 11-08-2009 11:36 AM

i'm in my mid twenties and about 5 foot 9 inches... i kinda like being tall, always have... the only think i dislike about my height is that it's kinda hard to find a guy taller than me, and that's what i go for... i mean, i can't even wear dressy heels because i tower over practically everyone...*sigh*... whats a girl to do?

Ikuto Akihiko Hasegawa 11-08-2009 02:50 PM

I'm 21 and only 5'3".

Cherish 11-08-2009 02:59 PM

I'm 23, and only 4'11".
I have a young face too, so often people think I'm a lot younger than I am.

I like being pocket-sized, though. I'm the only person that can fit my hand right down to the bottom of a Pringles tube!

xKindred_Silencex 11-08-2009 11:18 PM

I am 17 and I am only 5'4. Its kind of hard to get things like boots, jackets, and jeans because they just look so big on me.

cashuea 11-08-2009 11:32 PM

I am 5"2'. Kinda shortish compared to the rest of my family but my real problem is that i am as thin as a twig! I can eat alot and not gain a thing!

X---AznCo0ki3 11-08-2009 11:43 PM

Yeah..I know..I'm the second shortest in the family D=
I'm only 5'0 and I'm 14 T ^ T
