Height does matter ? is that so ?

not tall not cool bro.. what the..?

that is last and most unforgetable part of a milk product's commercial. Yes the commercial said that being tall(er) is cool(er). is that so ? 

Well i bet we all ever see the growth-milk commercial, ah no need to say the name, right? in one commercial there are a girl who ask for help to taking book in higher library's shelf, one male (shorter one) need to tiptoe his feets and one male (taller one) can get the book without tiptoe-ing. Meanwhile in the other commercial, the guy said "tumbuh itu ke atas bukan ke samping" which is really popular and jlebb words for short people with big body. From those commercial, we all know that height does matter in life, not only for getting something in higher place, but also for gaining some confidence. 

What my friend thinks 

Here is a friend of mine, a 180cm-tall male with skinny body. He thinks Height is very important, since height will help the person in some conditions. 

"getting something in higher place easily, or being noticed easily in crowded place is one of advantages that i've got" He said. 

"Being taller gives advantages for the person and it means the more height you got the more advantages you get" He added.

Here is another male, a 165cm-tall male with shaped body. He went to a tourism pegeant in 2010 by the way. He thinks that height does does does matter, since height is one pile of confidence. 

"I cant do anything about my height now, but i have to do something in myself which can cover my height. That's why i do gyming to bigger my body and muscle. So i will be looked better" He commented.

"I did losing my confidence when i was in pegeant contest but i tried to gain my confidence from other aspect like my body and brain. better than nothing, right" he added with a smile.

And there is she. A friend of mine also, she is a 175cm-tall female. She is an ex-athlete and for her, height is really important for male, but not really for female.

"For me, height is important for male, gaining confidence it is. For female, ah not really because male sometimes uncomfortable hanging out with tall female, and they mostly see the beauty in face and body not from her height" she commented.

"Since i was kid, i love milk and i drank it a lot. I did jumping and jumping and my dad, mom, granddad, grandmom is a tall-type person, so then no wonder i am tall like this" she added.

What I think

First of all, Let me describe myself. I am a male, my height is 162cm, and my weight is 58cm. Comparing to other indonesians, i am short-type male. The reason why i write this article is because i am regreting myself by being not so tall. hahaha men God please forgive me then.

Since i was kid, i didnt like milk. milk makes my stomach having tsunami and then makes me want to puke and puke. that's why i dont like milk until now. Well, i dont do a lot sport also which make it worse, and the last one my family is a short-type one, my dad, mom, aunt, uncle, granddad, and grandmom they are 150-160cm-tall. By the way i am the most highest person in my family with one of my uncle. Well....

How Height Effect Life
After spending 20 years of life, finally i do considering about my height but this year the the exact moment when i think height is really important for me. Since i was high school, i did bothering being called as short guy or stuff. I didnt care, since for me height was not that important as long as i got good grade, went into prestigious university that was all matter. Then i ignored it. ignored it. ignored it. until i finished my study in college, and then i wanted to be a pilot but rejected by being not so tall. DOOOM. nightmareee ! After that, i finally realize how matter the height is at least for me.

Height makes you be seen. Less height makes you disappeared.

Imagine yourself in elevator. There are males and females, and you are the shortest person there. You are drown, right ? dissappear. People wont see you. People wont notice you which is sucked. What about in the meeting or contest like pegeant one, worse. By being so small, people sometimes dont pay attention to you since you look short and unpromising. That is so true. Many people believes Dont Judge Book from Its Cover, but what i believe is Book with nice cover will interest people more.

Height makes you gain confidence. Less height makes you lose confidence.

Well it is. When you hang out with taller peoples, you feel really really small and you lose confidence. when you speak you have to look your face up and when you see your left or right you see other peoples' chest or shoulder, sucks huh. Those are some points which makes people with less height lose their confidence. Some suits are looks good or even better when you have taller height, right ? 

How to be Taller

Based on those reason, height does matter in life, especially for male. I agree with all of my friends comments above, about being noticed, and gain confidence. Because it is. I do searching a lot about how to gaining height after 20y/o, and not much answers i got. Well but there are somethings that considered good to be try on. 

Drinking growth supplement. 

Growth supplment can be found in drug store or any other health store. There are a lot of growth supplement from A to Z. Hahh i do drinking this supplement lately, and no changes in my height. probably later yes. AMIN.

Doing sport which increase and straighten bones.

My friends said if you want to gain height, do some sport which focussed on straighten bones, such as basketball, and yoga. Basically some people has not-so-straight bones which make them looks shorter then by doing this sport it will straight and your height is increasing. I dont know this is true or not, but what i understand is doing sport which having some bones moves up will increase height. Yea in basketball you need to jump right, while in yoga you need to strecth your bone. hmm i will try later then.

Doing a pulling-bone orthopedics things.

There is a tool that can pull our bone to make it straight and ensure people it will gain height. Is that working ? My friends said it is. You are getting pull by machine of cource you will be taller but it is safe ? that's the question. Ah i think i will skip this since it is really risky.

Give up on your height and gain others.

Last thing is giving up. As we all know that growth factor is stopped by age of 20. So after that the body wont grow. Yeaa understand the fact and give up. Being short is ok, but make it short and awesome. Muscling your body or others can be considered since you will gain confidence from that also, right.

Conclusion

In conclusion, height does matter in life. It makes people confident of theirself, especially for male. People can see you and you can brag yourself well if you have an good portion of height. 

Being a short people is suck for me, but i cant do anything about it since my genetics, and lack of awareness of height. What i do know is praying, eating and drinking supplement, doing some sports and gaining my other aspects to cover my height. It is sucked but it is the result of what i am doing in the past. ahh men in the end, this article shows how desprate i am in my height. God please forgive me for that ..

adios. sankyu.
