Newbie - any advice for a short female rider?

I'm pretty short too about 5,6 what I recommend you do is just get some boots tthat will give you some lift and there's a seat modification you can make that shaves off about 3/4 of an inch off the seat. I don't recommend lowering a bike. When you're getting ready to move up to a larger cc bike take a look at any gsxr because personally I felt like my current bike is easier to ride over my cbr250.
 
Take your time getting comfortable with your bike. I felt the same way when I first started out, switched my seat and I always feel more comfortable with Nike Shox on. I know its not the best footwear but it gives me that inch to have both feet planted.
