Embarrasing Moments
Comp 1
May 21, 2010
My Most Embarrassing Moment I have had a great many embarrassing moments in my life. Some of the most embarrassing have occurred while I was attending school. One of these moments happened in high school during my sophomore year. I remember it very well because I got conned into doing a stunt. It made me the center of attention, and I made an unforgettable moment at my school. Now days when a kid wants another kid to do something they are too scared to do, they dare them to do a stunt. When the kid says no, no one can just leave it alone. Usually you hear I double dog dare you. To most kids when people says double dog dare it is very hard to turn down. Let’s just say in my instance I got double dog dared to dance on a lunchroom table in my strict Christian high school when no teachers were there. So I finally got the courage to get up all by myself and dance in my long skirt on the lunchroom table. Someone put music on from their cell phone, and I was just dancing away. All the students were laughing until my teachers, my principal, and the pastor came through the lunchroom doors. I did not even know what to do, so I just froze and stood on top of the table. The lunchroom was so quite you could have even heard a pin drop. I definitely will never forget that moment, especially when I was sitting in the pastor’s office as my parents got called to come up to the school. I ended up getting in school suspension for three days because my school does not think dancing is right. At least I made a moment no one in that lunchroom will ever forget. For my school that was a pretty big deal, and to this day the students that were there applaud me for it, and I still can’t figure that out. I honestly will never forget that moment. I never have really been that embarrassed in such a long time. I still ask myself to this day what I was thinking. All I could come up with is that I was young and stupid. That was the day I learned never to listen

    On a sunny Saturday morning when I was 5 years old, my sister and I were playing a game where we would push ourselves off of our bed like it was a slide. Our room was a pigsty; it looked as if a tornado had passed through. The mess from our closet met up with the end of our bed. I had just slid down the bed feet first into the mess when it happened.…

    The thing that really caught my eyes and the way I felt was the selfishness of the students that were their. In addition to this, one day as the lunch bell rang and as the students are racing to win the front spot in line, I took my time simply because my mom made me lunch. As I was eating, I noticed a kid next to me with no food, so inside I felt bad and so I offered him my whole entire lunch. The funny thing is, the very next day at lunch time, guess who didn’t have food this time? Yeah me! So sitting their expecting the same kid I offered food too the previous day to give me some of his, he doesn’t even bother looking at me.…

    Upon joining my sorority earlier this semester I never would have thought I would be dancing and making a fool out of myself in front of hundreds of people on Green Street. Here I was though on November 1st, after practicing for at most three days with the other girls and Hockey team, ready to get on stage. My grand big is a dance major so she convinced me to join the Spurs and Struts team because they did not have enough people and I have a hard time saying no. This performance ended up being one of the scariest, but most fun experiences I have ever had. During Spurs and Struts I had lost my dance partner last minute so I had to dance a part alone. Also, I could not grab my rally towel that was tucked in my leggings so that was embarrassing…

    The proudest moment in my high school career is when I signed myself to take my first AP class. I was really nervous about going to the meeting to sign myself up to get the summer assignment because I felt that I was not ready for the work load, and I would not be able to pass the class. My excuse for not going to the meeting was that I was helping in the cafeteria and I was going to be really late, but when I told my two best friends Jenny and Virginia that I wasn't going to take it anymore. They got so frustrated and annoyed with me because they said I was stupid if I didn’t take AP calculus because that was my favorite subject and I needed a challenge in that class. They also made me remember when I would tell them that Math Analysis was…

    It was a normal September morning. I was in my second grade class with my favorite teacher Mrs. McClellan. We had just arrived to school and put our backpacks in the closet. We had already been through the normal announcement process and said “The Pledge of Allegiance.” My teacher wanted us to clean our desks with shaving cream, so my classmates and I were spraying shaving cream all over the desks and playing around when our class phone rang. My teacher answered the phone and began to shake. She dropped the phone suddenly and fell to her knees and began to cry. All I remember seeing after that was our principle and other teachers scrambling to get all of us out of school and on to the buses as quickly as possible.…

    We are all humans; therefore, we all make mistakes, but one thing that comes out of our mistakes is a lesson well learned. As I look back to all the things I've done, I regret the time I felt ashamed of myself. Easter of 2004 my godmother decided to invite us to her house for an egg hunt. I was told by my mom that the eggs had candy and nothing else. As we were heading out, I decided to bring my little purse, and we got inside the car full of joy. We were on our way to my Godmother's house for the egg hunt.…

    When I was in sixth grade, a guest came to speak to the entire class about middle school sports. During a question and answer session I asked if it was possible to run cross country and play basketball, a kid yelled across the gym “Why ask you’re too fat to play sports” and the whole gym burst into laughter, I was humiliated. Embarrassed beyond belief, tormented by others, and battling my own demons from generalized anxiety disorder, my problems were epitomized.…

This meant that I had harder classes and more homework, but it also meant that I could participate in high school clubs, so I became part of the PPHS Knowledge Bowl Group. A significant event in my life is when my team won a Knowledge Bowl Meet because I got out of school, I got to meet new friends, and it gave me a strong sense of accomplishment.…
