I don't go public school and don't have the guys and dating stuff, but I'm short too (4'11").  I never really had a problem with it except for not reaching anything...and sometimes it seems all the pretty girl are tall...but this is a good story.  Thanks :-D  It helps to know tehre are other short girls out there....

hey there!
I can completely relate to your situation. But you know what?
You are an amazing author. You have what those 'skyscrapers' lack.....TALENT. You should use it. Because i simply loved the way you described EVERYTHING. I am not exactly tall. 5 feet to be exact (same pinch :P ) But yeah, people like you GIVE ME HOPE.
