Being five foot one, I fail to meet the height requirements to be a Victoria's Secret Model, an Air Force pilot, or Cinderella at Disney Land. My height may be what I am made fun of for the most, but there are plenty of reasons why it's actually the best.
1. People will let you in front of them at concerts, or, even better, put you on their shoulders
Yes, naturally, you get the worst views. But, others understand this, and they know that you won't block their view. This is a big plus considering concert-goers are usually ruthless.
2. Children's size clothes and shoes fit you
You can save big on your favorite brands, or you can just shop the kid's section to try to offset your obsessive shopping habits.
3. You can fit in small spaces
This gives you so many good hiding places, which is beneficial if you're ever playing hide-and-seek, or running from a psycho killer.
4. You can order off the kid's menu without arousing too much suspicion
This is especially nice when you are a broke college student.
5. Most of the time, you don't just get hugged, you get picked up and swung around
Granted, this never looks as cool as it is in the movies. It is fun though.
6. You can sleep on practically any size bed
Or couch, beanbag, armchair, large pillow, car, etc.
7. You're automatically adorable
People love small things. Especially smaller versions of regular sized things. Puppies, ponies, mini marshmallows, and mini people.
