Caving: One Size Does Not Fit All (group 3)

Group 3 (who's group name may or may not unofficially be "Slothy Seconds") has been blessed with having both the shortest person and the tallest person in the junior class, which has been interesting. The shortest person is myself, KT, and the tallest person Chevez. Just to give you an idea of the height difference...

Aside from this, one of the most obvious differences in our height was shown today during caving. Caving was made up of a whole bunch of tiny passages that you had to fit through. Me and my 4'10" self zipped on through all of the smallest parts barely having to crouch down while Chevez and his 6'9" self has to sit some of the tightest squeezes out so his future multi-million dollar legs didn't get stuck forever. After this I realized that being short does come in handy... once every 16 years. This trip has been quite full of short jokes, even more than usual, but today the only thing that was said was "dude I wish I was that un-humanly small."
