Like No Other

Size X-Small

A/N: This is just a rant that I was thinking about, it's not really meant to mean anything. 😁🙂

The down side of going to an all girl school all my life (Well not all😐) was that every girl got hit with the puberty train as soon as 7th grade was over.

That train had missed me completely, so I was forced to live looking like a boy for what I thought would be forever.

Don't get me wrong I wasn't jealous or envious of these girls, in my opinion I looked freakin GORGEOUS!!!😏

It's just that I really wanted to grow a little just get up to 5'0 and weigh more than 100lbs.

Why say this, basically making myself sound like a brat? Well I'm gonna go backwards in time, to the 4th grade to be specific.

Anyway, in the 4th grade was when I got bullied(...okay it started in the 3rd but I can remember more of it in the 4th) I was basically the shortest and had no shape. I know what you're thinking,"well duh what kid has a shape in elementary school?"

The girls of PS241 did of course, it's like puberty hit them as soon as they came out the womb.

To get back on track, I was bullied for looking as they said it, "A boy in a dress"

It didn't stop there however, my elementary school was right next door to a high school and when my mom picked me up they'd say,"Your son is really pretty." this would make my mother really upset.

Like the fuck?! I'm definitely a girl!!

Like I said I wasn't jealous, it's just as time went on it got annoying to have to keep saying it...But once I graduated the 5th grade I thought that I'd at least grow a little, as usual I was wrong.

In the 6th & 7th grade I was really hoping to either grow in height or weight, it sucked having people pick me up cause they thought it was funny. (Not gonna lie being picked up was fun😅 but that's not the point!)

The worst thing was my height, I mean I don't have a problem with it now but in middle and the beginning of high school strangers would assume that I was 12 when I was 15 or that I was 9 when I was 12.

It was always the same surprised reaction, even from my doctors."What 18?! She looks like a baby!!!"

A baby? 12 is not a baby! 9 is not a baby!

The only size that I've ever worn is a x-small, I'm just now going into a small...and there are barely any x-smalls.

Cause I guess petite people don't exist 😒

Getting back to my height, I felt like I was never growing. In the 9th grade everyone was a freakin giant, and these girls looked like the puberty train came them blessings of curves and hips to go with thier breasts.

How is that fair? I'm sounding a little jealous aren't I? Well I wasn't, in a weird way things got better...in a weird way.

Puberty did come but it took it's sweet time, but my height still never CHANGED!!

Now I won't explain or complain my weight, I have a fast metabolism so it's like everything I ate vanished into thin air or something...it was still annoying but I've learned to live with it. 😁😋

My pointless and random advice...

If you're gonna change then that's fine, but make sure you're changing for you and not anyone else. 😄
