A shadow

This was written on a sunny friday of 16th November 2012:

I was walking home from school when I bumped into an old schoolmate and her girlfriend. This particular girlfriend was shorter than people normally are and I noticed that her height bothered me. The rest of my way home I wondered why it made me feel so uncomfortable. I came to a conclusion, that it wasn't about her, it was about me. I always feel unsure around people shorter than me, were they ten centimeters or one meter shorter. I'm little short myself so I think being shorter than others is part of my indentity. That identity is shook when I'm around people whose eyes are lower than mine.

 Anyways, this girlfriend of my friend was very cute even though she kept looking me with an ebil eye. Did she look me that way because she could feel my uncomfyness and thought I was judging her or because she didn't like the fact that I knew her mate? - that I can't tell. I can only imagine how hard life is when you are only half the size of what normally people are. And how hard that life gets when your sexual orientation is also marginal. And stupid me went ahead and said something about my friends ex too... *sigh*

 If there ever is going to be a movie about World of Warcraft I could recommend that tiny girl for a gnome. Her big suspicious eyes where covered in make-up so they looked even bigger. Instantly I felt the urge to run home and play my gnomemage and enjoy the feeling of being small and able to blink. I wish one could be able to do so in real life too! Would help with the short feet and their limitations. And who wouldn't want some magic in their life?

 When I got home, I didn't play my mage but a monk. Two weeks ago I lapsed and bought MoP and I couldn't resist the urge to roll a new character. Pandas don't inspire me much but I've always liked the model of orcs - wonder why. I never really cared much about closed starting zones either and much rather quest in Durotar. Where there's easy access to Orgrimmar. And a barber. You know.

Little did I know they really are going to make a WoW movie. it's coming out December 2015 and I've already agreed to go see it with one of my gamemates. Can't wait!
