These are one of the things that are just part of life!

And of course, there will always be someone else that has it worse than you, so don't worry!

I guess I'll share one first.

Recently, I graduated from Chinese school. During that day I made a speech in Chinese and up in the front row is my middle school principal! I stop in mid-sentence during the speech and just froze for a couple of seconds. Everyone was just looking at me and I could just feel the sweat just coming down. . .

Thank goodness he doesn't understand Chinese.

I don't really have really embarrassing moments really...

But my for my preschool picture, I didn't know that I had like a booger on my face, but the stupid photographer took the picture anyway.Now whenever I open up my photo album of school pictures, my relatives just points and laughs T_____T;;

That and I was in the girls basketball team in fifth grade. I was probably the worst player on the team...so when I was on court, I didn't really get the ball as much. But when I came into the court, someone just passed me the ball, and so I tried to hit it into the basket. The embarrassing thing was that I was about to shoot the ball in the wrong basket. Thank god I didn't throw the ball, because the ref blew his whistle.

Joseph, congrats on the first thread you have ever made. Oh dear, I feel like a stalker

I was at party with a lot of VIPS.
wearing a (cool) dress, high heels, you know.
And then I fell, in front of all those vips.
it was horrable................

I don't really have anything too embarassing. The onlt things I can think of is when you do something on accident like almost fall and you look around to see if anyone saw. I've done that a couple times. I've had times where I was walking and I stepped in a hole that I didn't know was there and my ankles twists a little and I tip a little. Those are the basic things.


Last week my friend Breanna came over by me and my friends Alyssa and Amanda and Amanda noticed something on Breanna. She had a bib stuck to the back of her shirt. lol She was embarassed. That reminds me, last year I found a sock in my sweatshirt, but I was already at school. I had to leave it there until gym so I could put it with my clothes. lol Luckily it was the next hour. No one knew about it.

This other girl was in Biology and she got out of her chair and left something. She had gotten her lovely friend of the month. Supposedly then a guy sat down in her seat with tan pants on. Yikes.

lol At least it didn't happen to you now. lol

I remember one time a couple years ago I was walking into school and there was ice on the sidewalk and I slipped and fell. It was a little embarassing but luckily my bus got there earlier then the others and there was only a few people around.

Well I got off the bus the other day and it happened to stop right in front of a tree. I got out, tripped on a root and some stranger yells out "I saw that!" You never know when those eyes are watching you!

Oh and if you don't watch where you're going, you might walk straight into a stop sign. I've nearly done that a couple of times.

There was another time where I was running outside to the backyard of my friend's house. I run really fast and stupidly, I didn't see the screen that was still there. So I bumped into the screen and my head hurt really badly.

And Lynn, it's all right because the VIP's don't know you lol. (Wait, VIP's? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? celebrities? That's cool if you did meet someone famous)

This summer my mom bought a sandbox with a canopy for the kids (she has an in home daycare) and I was helping her set it up. We had to move it on to the deck to finish putting it up and I was going back in the house and I ran right into the screen. lol The screen ripped too. Thats because there was already a huge rip along the side. I just made it bigger. My mom was a little mad. Not to much. She just didn't like the idea that the rip got bigger. I thought the door was open. I had to laugh a little but it was embarssing. And it was dark outside so no neighbors saw. Neighbors? What neighbors? lol There's like 4 houses on this street. lol

hmmm I don't think I have had too many hugly embrassing moments but I normally do the annoying little things like call up a friend and just start blabbing nonstop to find out I dialed the wrong number, or get on the wrong bus and not realize it til its about to pull out. little things like that.

Vips- very important people
yeah it was cool, but it were dutch celebs, you don't know them
hey another question
the past of 'to smell'
thats smellt.
but do you still use that, or do you use smelled?

last year at school i was walking down the hall talking to a girl i realy like so i just walking along BOOM i walk in to the diver in the middle of the doors luckly the door were open so i didn't hit the doors but it hurt and by the time had got up she was talking to some popural guy

I went to the doctor for arthritis in my ankles and knees and I ended up on his operating table in my underpants!! I still don't really understand why. I mean I was alone and I felt visibly threatened.
It was for my ankles!!! I didn't tell my parentals though? I mean what would they have said?

Lets just say that I didn't wear the most decent underpants! ewwww

My most embarising moment was probably when I was in the Spelling Bee. I came up and the lady told me to spell, flora. I knew it and I would have gotten it if I didn't freak out on stage and spelled it, flara.XD

Same thing happened to my friend joe (the hickey thing, although heers was a stress rash from a dance exam) I found out that if you tell the person that they're just jealous and then 'accidentally' open a locker door to widely so it 'accidentaly' bumps into them they shut their mouths. Sucicene- dont feel bad I always misspell things, always. I've never even gotten close to winning a spelling bee!

haha taks. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Sometimes teachers pronounce people's names wrong and it's very embarrassing.

My friend Pranai, pronounced (Prah-nay), had his name pronounced very strangely. Don't ask me how but the teacher called him "Pranny". and it sounded like granny lol. I still call him that sometimes.

I've had some really embarrassing moments. *winces* I'm not going to tell them...
In ninth grade, new year, new school, new classmates, we were on a school trip. You're not going to believe to where- on a slightly dried stream which led to all of Jerusalem's sewage... It was lot's of fun laughing at all the City girls (Jerusalmites) and virtously smirking, as perfect settlers. Our sewage gets washed out further. On the way, we saw a raspberry bush! Yum! We all picked a few, and enjoyed the fruit. As one girl extended a branch of fruit, I stepped forward- and fell into a hole under the bush...
I sank in, flailing. One foot dangling in, one foot slipping, one hand clutching desperately at the thorny branches, and the other waiving around for a strong hold. Three girls tugged at me to no avail- I was falling! Then, the guy that always is at the end, with the gun and first aid, pulled me out easily.
I came out, shaking. He then proceede to calm me down by telling me taht I was so light. Thanks....
My friends will never let me live this down They always are laughing at me, and warning me not to fall into any raspberry bushes...
I still have a scar on my wrist to this very day...

I have so many embarrasing moments....*wince*....I won't bother boring you with all of them! I can't remember them, really, just that they happen.....argh......but yes, probably after I finish typing this I'll fall off my chair or something. It always happens like that.

Thalia, a hole meaning a ditch? I hope you're not traumatized by it or anything. Raspberry bushes have thorns? I guess we really have to be careful, especially near sewer water. You can laugh along with them or just tell them to bugger off and that you don't appreciate it (oh and make them fall in a hole to see how it feels xD). That's embarrassing but remember, there's always someone that has it worse. lol.

orangephoenix, you're welcome to any revealing of embarrassing moments! I mean, that's what the thread's about. Fall off your chair? I've seen it so many times and it never gets old because everyone falls off their chair differently.

Let me think of another one. . .

How about when someone laughs and they snort right in the middle. That's priceless. And sometimes they do it without realizing it! And it does not only happen to nerds. . .

O that falling out of the chair bit reminded me of something.
In my Spainish class we have those really old wood and metal chair with the attacthed table thing tye of desks (since they are the best type for trailers) and my friend always falls out of them! Its really funny luckily he doesn't care he just stands right back up and pulls the desk back up.

oh yeah, i was setting in a desk in reading class. My notebook fell off one side. went to get rolled the desk on it side everyone was lafhting even me


oh and joe she didn't see me

lol taks, so your friend just repeat "okay, nothing just happened." Probably reassurance. It is a nice class distraction to fall off your as we call in spanish, "pupitre" though.

I remember a substitute came before and our class all dropped our pencils, coughed, dropped our textbooks and the whole nine yards. I mean I was coughing already so that didn't count. But I was so conscious of my coughing. I felt so bad for the sub. She must be so embarrassed that she couldn't control the class.

Jeff, it's okay. I dropped this burnt cd my teacher gave out during class. And she looked so mad because other students would have to use it in the future. Everybody just stared because it got so quiet. . .Yup, silence is golden. And I drop my eraser in Math all the time.

Nup, he didn't check anything to do with that. But after that experience I changed doctors.

Another embarrasing moment... I was kissing my boyf. in a dark corner of the school and a bird umm expelled waste onto our heads.

Lets just say that it didn't give us a very great start in social life..

Aw....sorry Kreacher....I know it's not funny......but it so is!!!! Anyway, you know, it's actually considered lucky if you get....ya know....by a bird... Good portent for your engagement, perhaps!!!

Not such good news for whoever does your washing though, huh?

I have "trauma" with New York pigeons. They're really scary sometimes and they just don't go away when you approach them. Think about Hitchcock's The Birds. Wow, once I was in New Jersey and we dropped some cheese puffs and all these sea gulls attacked us.

I've gotten a "present" from a pigeon before on my left ear too. Everyone always laughs about that story! We were just eating and out of the clear blue sky comes something. Oh boy. . . I would never relive that particular moment.

i was at zoo and a brid pooed my back and i didn't see it.I walked around the zoo for a hole day with brid poo on me. When i got to the car i found it.

Jeff, you sure you didn't notice anybody giving you strange looks?

Were you by yourself?

My most embarrassing moment was in high school. I was just getting into my experimenting with makeup phase. I tried out some foundation to even out my skin tone (because at the time I had bad acne). Okay the cream did not even match my skin colour, I put a huge amount on but convinced myself that it wasn't that much and I had a habit of touching my face. Well what happened was that I noticed at home that my school blouse was covered in foundation, I had been wearing my blouse for a week because I only had one good blouse at the time and usually it's still clean. So I was walking around with foundation for a whole week and nobody told me although I did receive the odd looks all that week!

i think they were playing a joke on mee and i didn't notice any strane looks

i dont get imparrased because im so used to tripping, but in 7th grade, i tripped over my friends band instrament and fell into like 20 people. i thought i was going to get beat up but they just made fun of me forever. oh well.

clint_deville, oh, that's bad. People can get touchy with their instruments. Well you did say that person was your friend and all. . .Don't worry, sometimes on the bus when I'm really tired, I fall into people when the bus makes a sharp turn. The trains are so much kinder!

yue chan, why didn't you just change your blouse?

yetsreday, I was talking about two boys... I thought they were both ugly...
My friend said: duco isn't that ugly... who's geoffrey? uglier than Duco?
NOOO geoff is much uglier than duco, i said
My friend: shhhh, he's walking right behind us..



Moderator's Note: No excessive characters/text are allowed.

Imagine if that was a teacher! I've seen it happen. It probably goes something like this:

Student 1: "Ugh, Mr. Smith is soo boring! I almost fell asleep in his class!"
Student 2: "He just drones on and on about nothing and he's so weird!"

The teacher walks by in front of them, ignoring their comment. The students just gasp in horror realizing what they did.

I guess in some places you could get in major trouble for talking bad about someone in front of their faces. Especially if you're the one being talked about! Imagine how that would feel!

Oh, I've got an embarrassing moment. No, two! lol

First one:
I was talking about my french teacher with my friend, saying stuff like "She's so horrible! I hate her! She gave us so much homework that evil hag!". My friend goes like, "shut up...". I don't listen to her. I go on and on about how much I hate her...I didn't even see my french teacher coming towards us, and BOOM! I collide with her. I don't think she ever got over it, cause she still glares at me all the time, and keeps yelling at me for no reason. Ah well, it's my last year with her, .

Second one:

During our ballet performance, my costume skirt slipped off. YAY! Loved that moment, couldn't get any better! At least I managed to put it back on real quiyk.

the other day in engishl i fell out of my seat i set in the back and everybody was doing homework so one saw me i was so realived

How can you fall out of your seat without anyone noticing? Unless you sit in the back and you fall quietly lol. Doesn't the desk make a loud noise when it collides with the floor?

(Jeff, I could've sworn S.O.S stands for "Save our Snape")

It did a while ago, but that was before I read the part in PoA where Snape tied my beloved Lupin up and threatened to give him to the Dementors....not to mention doing the same thing to poor Sirius. And then winding him up in OotP about his inability to do anything for the Order....Then I decided that Snape wasn't so nice after all and changed it to 'Squash Old Snape'....

But that's off topic, so.....

the desk didn't go on it's side i just fell out and cauht myself so it did not make anynoise and it was not folled by beep beep you nogood beeping beeper beep ect. lol

Lol, thanks Dana for the info!

Good job Jeff. You didn't fall all the way!

Once my friend had a cell phone and it went off during class. Now my english teacher was in mid-sentence and all of a sudden her eyes were like fiery. Then she goes on to complain about those rude people on the buses and subways that talk so loud that you probably know four or five lives by the time you get to your stop. It disturbs other people. . blahblah. The teacher went on for like 5 minutes and I had to watch my friend pretend it wasn't her cell phone. Wow, I felt so sorry for her.

It must be so embarrassing to have your phone go off, especially when it's not allowed in my school. Not only school; imagine being in the middle of a case and your cell phone goes off during court. Maybe they should just ban cellular phones in public places.

Uh, huh...I had one of those experience with cell phones...

I never forget to turn it off during class...well, maybe not never...but really, I seldom, rarely forget! (you get the point...)

But imagine the only time that I had forgot is during one of the class by the most stern lecturer in the faculty!! She's someone who would come in class, standing quitely and looking serious and look around until all of us had quite down. (Normally students will fill in the class and while waiting for the lecturer to arrive, we started to chat with each other... and normally lecturer would just simply step in and start of with lectures and people will eventually quite down taking notes)

And what worse, it was Hedwig's theme ringtones!!! People around start to smile mockingly at me and that lecturer! That lecturer stood there, staring at me for 5 whole minutes!! My face was burning so hot!! How I wish I could simply disapparate from there!!! So, I found the floor was pretty interesting to look at that day...

**tee hee** I've got quite a few cellphone-going-off-in-lectures I could recount myself... And, just like you zyra, mine plays Hedwig's theme too!!! Most of my lecturers are pretty cool about it actually, they usually have a laugh and pass comments about people's weird little ringtones.. Although I think if it happens more than once or twice in a lecture, they are liable to get pretty miffed about it.

You know, in Britain, cellphones are becoming as big a social problem as public smoking - you're treated in exactly the same way if you use a cellphone in a shop, bank or whatever as you would be if you lit up....As much as I am personally against smoking in public (because it does affect the people around you - I'd rather not have my air polluted by someone else's smoke thank you very much.. And don't talk to me about smokers having a right to smoke if they want to...I have a right to breathe clean air too.....) I really don't see that someone using a mobile is causing a hazard to other people. I mean, yeah, if they're being really loud about it, well that's more a reflection of their personality and they're probably irritating people anyway... ...but as long as the conversation is conducted quietly, then I don't have a problem with it.

If my phone rings and I'm being served in a shop, I won't answer it because it's just rude....like everything else, I think how people are with phones is a reflection of their personality....

Okay....rant for today over with....I'll get down off my soap box now...

Back on topic, I did fall on my backside in a supermarket once..... ...it still makes me blush to think about that one......flippin' grapes...

everyone's cell phone always seem to go off in the most annoying places. I've been to a funeral where someone's cell phone went off (and they answered it, right during the service) Anyways...
Embrassing Moments:
Yesterday I was running late for class and I had all my books, my jacket, an instrument, and a couple random things (money, etc.) I was running down a just mopped floor and fell on my face, right infront of one those "Caution Wet Floor" signs too. But hey, I wasn't late for that class...

I'm not brave enough to put my most embarassing moment on here, but my friend had a really funny cell phone one yesterday. We were sitting in computer class, and the teacher in that class is SO mean (It's scarry!)! Her purse was sitting between us on the long computer table that all the computers are on. The teacher doesn't let us talk in class, so it was completely silent. Then all of a sudden, Usher's song, Burn started playing from inside her purse! Everyone turned and looked at us, and she just sat there looking shocked. Then the teacher came over and took her purse, went through it, and took her cell phone! We were cracking up for the rest of the day!

the other day in scoial studes we read a story in mag. about cell phone in school. so next hour we go to sciene and half way thought the thecer phone went off we all started lafghing

~*Most Embarrasing Moments*~

At camp over the summer I managed to do the following:
Call my Counseler(SP?) "Mom"....didn't even resemble her...
Fall down the cabin stairs(luckily only 2 steps onto grass)
Slip into the pool with my clothes on.


~*At school*~

I managed to get toilet paper stuck in my pants...and hang out of them....for an entire class......



My friend....

Over the summer knocked out a screen door.Literally out of the sockets,metal siding and all.

My most Embarrassing moment happened just after I moved to America, it was about 2 years ago now and I was sat in my Alg1 class (as a freshman) it was like the first week of school and I’d only just moved from ‘jolly old England’ so I was still getting use to all the lingo and everything, well I made a mistake on my work so I put my hand up and said “Do you have a Rubber” in my strong Newcastle/Manchester accent to the teacher ‘not knowing then what I know now’. (You see we call ‘in England’ erasers ‘Rubbers’). Of course the whole class burst out laughing and me I had no clue what I’d said wrong but my friend soon set me straight and I went so red…it was real embarrassing I was known after that as the girl who dared to ask the teacher for a rubber!!…How nice hey??

lol from whomeisi

lol thats really funny

Today I wasn't having a very good day and someone like I don't quite remember but they accidently hit me in the head while I was at my locker (lucky me, I get the locker right at the main intersection) and I thought it was just my friend who I was talking to so I just keep on talking and get really mad when the bump into me and I say something, not so nice. I turn around later and realize that its the really cute football player that I had been yelling at the entire time...

OMG!! You guys!! Thanks for making me laugh out loud right in the middle of the computer lab at uni!!! Wow....I'm having an embarrassing moment right now......man, it's hot in here with all these eyes on me......

whomeisi, I had no idea you were originally from Britain!! **hi fives** Hi there!! Oh, you poor girl!! That'll teach you to watch more American TV in the future, won't it?!

Oh, and taks! The image I have of you in that corridor!

Wow....life is painful in so many ways sometimes, isn't it??!!

ye am a pure english gurl...sorry about making you laugh lol....it was rather funny tho...

Well, I happy i made you laugh (but I hope next time its in a more, apporpriate, less embrassing situation).
