Growth hormones

Another observation for the day:
If I´m standing at the front of a packed bus, even if it has double carriages, I can turn to look to the back and I have an almost totally unobstructed view to the rear window of the bus, since being at least a full head taller than every girl here and almost every guy, I can thus look over everyone's heads across the entire length of the bus! Totally weird. I'm glad at least that I have the same colour hair (or sort of) and not blonde or bright red - that would just be the icing on top of the cake if i did though. =)

You are pretty tall. Does anyone play basketball over there?

I think the worst part about being short would be having to breath with everyone's armpit in your face. The air down there is seriously A LOT muggier then the fresh oxygen you have a foot above the crowd.

oh and people do play basketball here as well as volleyball, which is interesting to watch becuase at first it seems like the net is extra high, but it´s just that everyone playing is pretty small ...and there´s definitely no spiking to be seen.
