I'm 16 and still growing

I was walking around town today,
decided to breath the fresh air frm town.
I thought it would smell rather refreshing as compared to the air at home.
I was totally pissed off.
First place i went to was lido,Isetan.
I wanted to burn CD.
So i went to this shop i usually go to develop my fotos.
and i while waiting,
I was reading my History 10yr series.
The man suddenly came and tell me:
'xiao jie ah. ni yi jing zhong si ah?
kan bu chu lai ye. hau xiang shi san shi si sui'
translation: 'girl ah, you're already in sec4 ah? you look like 13/14 yrs old'
At that time, i was rather flattered. which means, i look young =D
I was happily walking.
and walking.
and walking.
When i've decided to step into this 7-elevel store
there was this ang moh couple queueing beside me.
They saw me holding this magazine that i wanted to buy.
ok, i admit. I shouldn;t have bought tt mag in the first place.
It's called 'my princess'.
The cover pg was belle frm beauty n the beast.
Then they were like
'Oh, I can't believe children nowadays aged like her still buy those type of mag'
I was trying hard to listen to what they were talking abt.
then they said this
'I think she's 11 or 12 [pointing at me]. I thought only kids aged below 8 buy these kind of magazine'
AH!!!! fire fire fire.. my head was on fire.
I thought town was supposed to be where cool n hip ppl hang out.
And why can't they realise that i'm already 16!!!!
not 14. and worse still 11 or 12.
Its ok in 20yrs time when i'm 36 for ppl to tell me i look 20s
but not now when i'm 16 where ppl come telling me i look younger.
this is so unfair.
