12 Things All Tall Girls Are Tired of Hearing

Coming from the perspective of a girl who's 6 feet 2 inches tall, I present to you 10 things that tall girls would gleefully like to go the rest of their tall-ass lives without hearing ever again:

1. You're so tall!

Well damn, thank you for letting me in on this extremely valuable piece of information I was so unaware of. What else can you tell me about myself that I don't know?

2. How tall are you?!

I'm 6 feet 2 inches, but do you want me to get out some measuring tape and double check just in case? I'll hold still, and you can even measure the tape for me, you curious little soul!

3. Is it hard to find boys with your height?

Yes, unfortunately there appears to be an epidemic of tall men. For every five 5-foot-7-inch guys (which there is nothing wrong with, just a bit short for me), there is possibly one male over 6 feet.

4. Do you like taller guys?

No, I absolutely love guys over a foot shorter than me. Giving them piggy-back rides is one of my favorite pastimes.

5. Why are you wearing heels?

I'm wearing heels because being tall does not mean I can't wear heels like every other girl and feel badass. If I'm over 6 feet, what's another couple of inches? If it makes you uncomfortable, I'd be lying if I said I care.

6. Do you only date basketball guys?

Yeah, I 100 percent restrict myself to basketball men. Not any other guys. NONE. Don't even look at me if you don't play basketball.

7. If you were an animal, you'd be a giraffe!

Ohhhh, I get it! 'Cause we both have long necks and just long limbs in general, right? Hahahaha! That is a good one, sir!

8. You have really big feet.

Yes, because if a girl over 6 feet had size 5 feet that would make perfect, amazing sense.

9. Why do you always bend down in pictures?

A majority of my friends are at least half a foot shorter than me. It's a natural movement in group photos. Next question.

10. How is the weather up there?

It's sh*t, thanks for asking.

11. You play basketball or volleyball, right?

No, I'm actually a horse jockey. The horses run like the damn wind with my tiny little frame.

12. Wait, how tall are you again?

*dies*

So there you have it, folks...do us tall girls a favor and spare us from these. If you're going to comment, try to make it unique...we've heard it all.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
