My mama used to always be scared that I would never grow taller, because I was always one of the shortest kids in the class. She always tried to make me sleep early and never let me work out because she didn't want my height to be stunted.During my middle school years, she would give me these quarter-sized chewable vitamins every morning to eat, along with a cup of water that had this magical "growing powder" that she put in it. I'd painfully chug the water, and head off to school. Sometimes I'd eat the vitamin (and gag a few times, cause it freaking tasted like crap), but most of the time I'd just throw it into the bushes.
Fast forward five or six years, and here I am at 5'11". Dang. I guess what I had of those things worked, but I'd probably be playing ball with the big boys in the NBA instead of playin' pee-wee ball at UC Riverisde if I had those vitamins everyday (just kidding..) Maybe my 6'2" dream would have been a reality though...no joke.
Thanks for caring about my height, mama. I guess I'm just an average asian guy in terms of height, but at least no one makes fun of me anymore. Love ya!
