| you may have another surt in you but other than that you're done mate...get over it there's more to life than how tall you are..if being short is the worse thing that happens to your then you're still in good nick |

If you are a girl : Well I prefer girl a little bit more small than I and I'm small so it's all good lol
And well you can't do anything about ti, let time some peoples start to grow late I guess. I'm as tall as I was when 13 so I'm not a good example |

Hay,
I was about your size, only grew a couple inches (if that) since then .
My advice, being small is not always a bad thing. During my college years (being the lil dude) I was involved with crew and coxswain for many years. I have also found that I am able to be competitive in running as well. Do what you want to do, and what you enjoy don't worry about your size! I'll share one of my favorate quotes:
"All your life you are told the things you cannot do. All your life they will say you're not good enough or strong enough or talented enough; they will say you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or be this or achieve this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell you no, quite firmly and very quickly. AND YOU WILL TELL THEM YES." -, Nike ad
