Passing a tall girl
Walking from Meguro station to my work this morning I passed an unusually tall Japanese girl. Surprisingly she was a lot taller than me. I always feel tall compared to other women, especially on the train or in larger crowds. Not to mention all the clothes I can’t buy because they have too short sleeves or legs. But next to her I felt small… until I discovered her shoes. They where so high! Imagine an earthquake would strike this very minute, that girl would fall like a tree. But still I’m quite amazed she could actually walk in those shoes.
