Can You find me?

Think back to your childhood and think of all the different games you played with your friends. Did you play tag, hide and seek, or even ghost in the graveyard? Do you ever wish you could go back to that time and play those games again? If you're vertically impaired you never really had to stop playing those games.

As soon as you reach average adult height, all of the fun childhood games become a bit harder to play. All of the hiding places that you used when you were little, are too small, and there aren't too many other places for people to hide, but if you're short, then that's not a problem. You will never grow out of your favorite hiding places, and you will forever dominate hide and seek.

The downside is that you may be hiding for awhile, so be prepared for that. Also if you are short enough and quiet enough, you can even move if you pay attention to where the seeker is going, you could potentially move to different hiding spot without anyone even noticing.

It's absolutely brilliant to do, because if you do it right, it can do wonders. Even if you aren't playing hide and seek, you can still sneak off without anyone noticing. I often surprise people with my presence, because they didn't hear me or see me come up.

The best reaction is when you suddenly disappear, and your friends freak out like a parent that just lost their small child at Disneyland. The situation is a little different since you are old enough that if you wander off, it won't be the end of the world, but being short, but the people you are with will still react as if it is.

You can have fun with this though. If you are up for it that is. Just find a place that is highly crowded and go to that place with your friends. If you are usually quiet around them, this will work even better, because they won't notice when you disappear. Make sure your phone is either off or on silent so when your friends try to call or text you, they can't find you by your ringtone. Find a place that is near by where you can hide and enjoy the show. Wait a few minutes for your friends to notice your absence.

They will begin to run all over the place calling your name and trying to find you before something bad happens to you. Don't torture them too long, or the inevitable lecture will be even longer, because they will have had more time to think about what to say. Just let them suffer long enough to get some good laughs, then come out from your hiding place, and face the classic "Do you know how much you just scared me?!" speech that will immediately ensue after you reveal yourself.
