Day 28: Most Embarrassing Moment
I don’t get embarrassed often anymore, so let’s go back in time. 3rd grade. We had too many kids for the elementary school, so my class was held in a portable. These were designed to be temporary classrooms, but they used them for years. it was about 2:45 pm, and we were waiting for the afternoon announcements to start. School was always dismissed after the afternoon announcements. I had to use the restroom (which was located in the main part of the school). I had to go VERY badly, so I asked my teacher. Maybe she thought I was just trying to leave school early, but she wouldn’t let me go. She told me to wait.
I tried. I really did. I didn’t make it. Halfway through the announcements- I peed in my jeans. (Yes- I remember that I was wearing jeans.) I went to the little sink in the back of the classroom and grabbed a bunch of paper towels to clean it up. I was sooo angry at the teacher for not letting me go to the restroom. I wasn’t one of those students who asked to go, and just used the time to goof off.
I don’t think anyone else noticed that I made a puddle on the floor. I don’t remember anyone else commenting about it, either right then, or the next day. My jeans were dark enough that you couldn’t easily tell whether they were wet or not. However- it embarrassed ME that I wasn’t allowed to go to the restroom, and ended up wetting myself.
Awww..that’s terrible!
You’re really lucky that you’re latest embarrassing was back in 3rd grade. I embarrass myself almost everyday but the moment that took the cake would have to be https://simransodhi.wordpress.com/2016/12/21/the-flying-coffee-embarrassment/
Oh, that’s not my latest. But like you- I am very clumsy, so there are things you just get used to. Tripping over your own feet… tripping over nothing… slamming various body parts into walls- all standard stuff. I think the latest was ripping the side mirror off my car (and disabling the access gate at my local library)… thus having the parking attendant yell at me. Yeah, that was fun…
We are so similar! I literally do all of those things regularly. Other than the car thing cuz I’m just 15… Are we related or something? XD
Probably!
