excuse me miss, are you a minor?

somehow with the new haircut I look young enough for the ticket people at the movies to demand an i/c from me. do I really look younger than 18? my default expression is a frown, I have pimples on my face anyone can conclude due to stress, and on some days I am taller than my 21 year old boyfriend. I think I look freaking 25. the ticket people (for lack of a better word) must be blind.

so while I was digging out my wallet for my i/c, I mumbled to myself how insulting it was to be standing there while people behind me were impatiently waiting for their turn. just 2 weeks ago I watched Blood Diamond with my best friend, and the same thing happened. could be that Nora is as tiny as hell and one would assume her friends are as young as she looks (which is 16, you're welcome Nora). but today I was with Rizan, I was wearing my wedges, and I believe I was rambling to him something that must've sounded matured. would it hurt to let me pass with ease? nooo. Ticket Boy made me fish out my i/c with the stupid face I can't change cos it'll cost me $50. or something like that.

so really, is it that flattering to be thought younger than you are? if I have to flash some form of identification now and then just to gain admittance wherever I go, then sorry, I beg to differ.
