Answers:

Growth spurts, along with all the other factors of puberty (new hair growth, weight, acne) is all genetic. Your growth rate can't be foretold unfortunatley, but at 14, you are just entering into puberty. You're not going to grow 10cm overnight (I know what 10cm is lol), but you will grow. Most guys don't stop growing (and maturing) until they are 20-21 years old. So, Relax and enjoy this time. There is a lot more to come.

Hope this puts your mind at ease a bit...

personal experience

u normally have your growth spurt in your teens. some have early, some later. you'll just have to wait. but don't worry it will happen (people will notice, you wont).

One of my friends was 14 last year and about 5'7" or 5'8" after summer break he came back to school around 5'10" You might end up like him. =P
