Starting School

I am 5'9 and in my family that is considered tall so they always point out my height, compliment me, or joke about it which I am used to by now. Only rarely have I met people taller than me and those instances make me feel small, but I kind of like it even though I show to be jokingly mad. Anyways, I moved from Massachusetts to Florida, and the schools over here are massive but I cannot say the same for the students. Only a few individuals stick out for their height being 6ft and above. Furthermore, one of those guys befriended me and we have been growing close. He comes to my house and my family welcomes him with open arms. They are always amazed by his height and make fun of me. I think I will never get used to it.
