A little bit invisible

Freshman guys have it rough.  I'm not saying we're short, it's just that most of us haven't reached our "full height potential" yet.  Someday, most of us will tower over our big sisters and call them names we just learned in Shakespeare 1O1, like "acorn" and "minimus."

Until then, we have to endure being a little bit invisible. The girls at school are all beautiful creatures who step on us with their high heels at dances and look over our heads when we try to talk to them.

Then there are guys like Logan Buchanan.  He doesn't really say very much, but all the girls are crazy about him, including my sister Abby.  Personally, I think it's just because he's tall enough to look them in the eye.

So until I'm taller -- like next semester -- I'm just going to bide my time and perfect my rock star air of cool, casual confidence.

That's my plan and I'm stickin' to it.
