1.
People who were literally a day older than you treated you like you were a small kid.
2.
Hair ruffles and cheek pulling were a constant thing during your school life.
3.
And because of this you tried to dress older than you actually were.
4.
"Cute" was pretty much the only compliment you got.
5.
And it goes without saying that you were sick and tired of the word "cute".
6.
Your peers hit puberty way before you did.
7.
Meaning that you were probably one of the last ones to wear a bra.
8.
Or if you're a dude, you were probably the last moustache-less kid in your grade.
9.
Your Year 12 prom was at a club... which you couldn't legally enter.
10.
Whenever you got a terrible grade, you blamed your age.
11.
On the flip side, that didn't stop you from rubbing it in your classmates' faces when you did better than them.
12.
No one at school bothered to throw you a surprise party because your birthday was always during the summer holidays.
13.
Or better yet, no one even remembered.
14.
And when you complained, everyone always said, "But you're so lucky! You have no school on your birthday!"
15.
Speaking of which, most of your school friends weren't even in the country during your birthday.
16.
Because of this, you usually celebrated your birthday on the last day of term.
17.
And someone never failed to point out the fact that it was "bad luck" to celebrate it in advance.
18.
Your friends always experienced the exciting milestones before you.
19.
Like their "Sweet 16".
20.
And their first driving lesson.
21.
But just remember, despite everything, you're still the most youthful of them all.
