The shitty parts of always being told that you look younger than your age

Yep, I know, it's quite a title right? That would probably the longest title this blog has ever had. Ever. But then, there's always the first time for everything, right? Honestly, I don't know the shortest way to say that. Any ideas? You can put it in the comment's box, which I know it's still going to be empty by the time I reach 80 years old. And come to think of it, does Blogspot still exist by then? Hm.

Back to the shitty parts.

Okay. So, many of you guys who already read my blog for quite some time must've noticed that there are few posts that I wrote about me being told that I look a lot younger than my actual age which is 22, by the time I write this of course. Just to make sure, I was born on 1st November 1993. Feel free to send your gifts on my birthday #ngarepdotcom

Some said I look like 20. Some said I look like 18. The youngest I got is 16. A freakin 16. That's like 6 years ago. I think that was the age when I began those humiliating memories in highschool. But I'm not going to talk about how nerd I was. Or am.

They said it's a bless to look younger. Many are dying to look younger, they spent thousands of dollars on those beauty products, or surgery, or something like that. But me, I have it naturally without having to spend my entire 3 months salary for those products.

But then, there's always a good side and bad side. I'm not trying to complaining or not being grateful of this miraculous thing. No. Just a tad bit of complaining actually hahaha, and it has its own reason which I'm gonna tell you all anyway whether you guys asked for it or not.

1. People don't take me seriously.

This happened... A LOT. Because from what they see is just this girl trying to speak her mind. But she doesn't look like an adult, she looks like a kid, a teenager. People don't take teenager seriously. I mean, they might be thinking that I lack of experience or something.

2. People will change the conversation.

This happened oh so many times this actually annoyed me a lot. People sometimes stop in the middle of the conversation because the subject may be too inappropriate to talk about with me. Or they just left me out of the conversation because I'm too young to having that particular conversation. I mean come on, just because I look younger doesn't mean I can't handle that kind of conversation. I'm 22 years old for goodness sake. I'm old enough. That was actually the line that I always said in office though, "No, I'm old enough".

3. Some people just don't buy it.

Okay, so there was this one time that I watched adult-rated movie in theater. It wasn't a blue-film whatsoever, it just happened to be rated as adult movie. I forgot which movie. I watched it with my bestfriend, Juni. I was 19 I think. And when I bought the ticket, the lady raised her eyebrows and asked me for ID card (which I was more than happy to shoved it to her face). Then after looking at it, she still asked if the girl on the picture was really me. Oh my dear God *eyes-rolled*

4. People treat me like a little kid.

If it happened just once, or twice, that actually fine. But if it happens most of the times to me. I just want to be treated equally you know, like "hey, don't you remember that we're the same age?".

5. I'm running out of this. I think 4 is enough.

Well, I guess that is all. I know some already defend me if there are people who told me that I'm too young. Thank heaven. So please, anybody, just because I look younger than my age, doesn't mean I'm not old enough. Please.

Thank you for having me.
Bye.
