On Shortness

I'm REALLY short. And I'm not going to grow. I haven't grown since about 6th grade. I'm 4'11 3/4". Yeah. One freaking fourth of an inch short of five feet, damnit!! But you know, being short isn't all that bad. Some really really epical people are short, you know. Like, Dan Radcliffe is HARRY POTTER and he's only FIVE FOOT FIVE. He's pretty much always the shortest in pictures (besides when Warwick Davies is there), and even Emma Watson has grown taller than him (by about a half-inch). And you know what he says about it? He says, "I used to be self conscious about my height, but then I thought, f*** that, I'm Harry Potter.” So go short people! (Though it IS pretty hilarious when they all stand together like above...) Also, one of my heroes/role models is Lisbeth Salander from The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo AND SHE'S SHORTER THAN ME!! SHE'S ONLY FOUR ELEVEN!!! XD AND: Holly Short from Artemis Fowl is THREE FEET TALL. She's short, even for an elf. AND YET SHE IS COMPLETELY AWESOME IN EVERY RESPECT. So that totally proves that you can be both short and awesome at the same time, as well as being short often MEANS being awesome.
