I can't reach the sky, i'm not tall enough!

My friend (a guy) made a lame joke saying I'm better looking than Awie.
Two very big mistakes there:

1. Everyone I know is better looking than Awie, so why bother??
   
2. Say what?? You're comparing my gorgeous good looks to that of an overweight, middle-aged, father-of-two? How dare you!!
   

He would hv been far better off comparing me to a pregnant gorilla. At least i wouldn't hv been insulted at that. In fact, i'd take it as a nice compliment. But Awie??? of all people? Tsk tsk tsk..

Hahaha.. i wasn't really mad but he didn't know that. So, i purposely gassed him a little. He was (mildly) apologetic (in the typical alpha male "u're-too-sensitive" kinda way). But then he made another stupid mistake, he gave excuses. Ish ish ish..


Friend: You're tall, that's why!
Me: huh??? (said with a raised eyebrow ala The Rock)

Aissshhh..... I'm not tall!!

Okay okay, maybe I'm a lil' tall but i'm not that tall.
And certainly not tall enough to be compared to an aging superstar has-been.

Just because I'm a little taller than the average Malay girl, people make me feel like a freak of nature. C'mon laa.. 171cm nak masuk beauty pageant pun belum tentu lepas. All my life, people have been remarking about how tall I am for a girl - yeah, like i don't know better! (it gets very annoying after 2 decades). When i was in standard 4, my dad's (stupid) friend even mistook me for my Dad's 2nd wife (what the...??). And I was barely 160cm then.

Sigh~

p/s: Ao'gan says my height is just perfect!! Hahaha, Ao'gan you flirt, you.. (*blush). He's 186cm... little wonder =P
