Now on my normal days (The kind when I have time to follow through with all my super girl habits [make up, flat ironing my hair, ect]) I look very much my age. A little older on good days, but on days when I'm traveling or I have to get up earily, I APPARENTLY, much younger than I am. . .
AND PEOPLE HAVE NO TACK!! AH!! I've gotta vent here:
Well, on our way back from vacation, we got up really earily so we could return the rental car that we got after our car completely died on us ( ). That said, I just threw on my clothes, jumped in the car, and slept. Well, when we got to the airport where we were to return the car, I went in with my dad to return the keys. While we were at the desk, I was joking with my dad about his AARP card making him an official old person. The woman at the rental desk must have thought I was pretty funny because she said to my dad "She's a smart little thing. I think you should keep her around." And like good dad, he agreed.
After that, she turned to me and said "So how old are you, honey?"
"I'm [Herd of cattle trample through the thread, drowning our Osaka's words] years old."
"THAT OLD!? Honey, I wouldn't have thought you were a day older than fifteen!"
GEEZ! People have no tact! And that's not the first time this has happened to me. People are always telling Yumie (infront of me) that they would have DEFINITELY thought she was older. Argh!
So, does this happen to anyone else?

"Mommy...is that a girl?" I just smiled...of course the woman was mortified...quickly rushed her child to another aisle. I was tempted to spin around roll my eyes back and say..."NO CHILD, I AM THE MONSTER THAT LIVES UNDER YOUR BED...IM GONNA EAT YOUR LIPS!" But I was nice...and refrained. As far as age goes...when I am clean shaven...people think I am younger then I am. But with the goat and hair...most times people think I am older.

Other than that, most people can't believe I'm in college, they keep thinking I'm in high school or something, even though I'm turning 20 in a couple of weeks. I think that's pretty normal for my age group though.

Because I am.
