I'm very comfortable with the idea of there being late bloomers, and for me, of course, there's no difficulty at all in the way that I think of talent and achievement and so on.
I went through puberty late. I was a little, little, tiny kid. I was still growing in college.
I was always a good student, but I didn't read that much until I was 18 and I was working my way through college.
I started growing late, so I was a late developer.
Latecomers to industrial development have had to catch up by finding ways of closing the gap.
I didn't hit puberty until I was, like, 17, so I love to talk about that.
I was the undersized underdog who people never gave a chance. From that, the motivation to prove people wrong just grew and grew... Looking back now, I'm glad I didn't hit puberty until later.
I think I went through puberty really late in life or something. I always looked like a little, sad Thai boy up until I was 26.
I was 25 before I joined the world, in my opinion. I was a very late developer, and everything came late.
To put it mildly, I was just a very late bloomer.
I'll be honest: I was a super-late bloomer, and I was kind of a prude.
Composition is definitely what I'm born to do, and it came last.
I just came into my own sexuality at thirty. I don't think it's something you can deeply experience at 18 or any time before that.
I think I was a late developer because I'd been stuck in the country and was a little bit shy and withdrawn.
I led such a sheltered life I didn't go out with girls until I was almost four.
I was a late bloomer.
I was something of a late bloomer.
Being very dyslexic I couldn't even tie my own shoe laces until the age of 21 and I struggled at school.
I felt, as I became a later and later bloomer, alienated not just from my own recalcitrant glabrous little body but in a way from the whole elemental exterior I'd come to see as my co-conspirator.
I feel like I know so little, and I just hope I get to live so long. I came to puberty late; it's all been late.
It is a misfortune for a science to be born too late when the means of observation have become too perfect. That is what is happening at this moment with respect to physical chemistry; the founders are hampered in their general grasp by third and fourth decimal places.
Los Angeles, Houston, Denver, Atlanta: those are all cities that really didn't get big, didn't hit their stride until the 20th century.
I ain't get the opportunity to get coached until being a star.
Looking at me now, it might be hard to believe that I didn't even have hair in my armpits when I graduated from high school. I guarantee you I was the last guy to go through puberty in my class.
I'm such a late bloomer.
