This is normal for a 5'5" female of almost fifteen years and don't question it.
Oh yes, classify me. Put me in a group with all the other 5'5"s.
Every one of us has an identical story to share.
We will scream identical, blood-curdling screams, and the
mummy fingers tickling our backs will have the same fingerprints.
All of us will be about fifteen, and our short lives will have brought us all the exact same thing.
Our eyes are all on the same level, glancing down with similar nuances to observe matching scars.
Twenty-six mass-produced cuts on our left arms. Thirty-eight on our right arms. LIFE on our left ankles. A shining sun on our right calves.
75 milligrams of brainwash every morning for all of the 5'5" females.
Classify us together because we obviously must be the same.

I'm glad you said it, because we were all thinking it. You are all the same - self obsessed drama queens. I give this one a 3.1 on the Nortiscale.

great write. stereotypes are always lovely things to be thought of as. cheerleaders, blondes, goths, everyone suffers through it everyday. |
