O.k. the set up: My old high school's lobby is divided into an upper part and a lower part, separated by five stairs. The lower part contains the cafeteria. First day, first lunch, freshman year. I was talking with one of my friends, walking towards the stairs, and not paying attention to where I was going. Instead of going down the stairs like a normal human, my clutzy ol' body decides it wanted to dive down all five stairs superman style and land in the cafeteria in front of a table full of seniors. I did a face plant on the linoleum. For weeks after that my friends called me wonder woman, and asked if I was going to do any more flying.

That reminds me, one time at a choir performance thing, as we were walking off the risers, and I tripped on a step cuz I got my heel got caught, and so I fell face first onto the ground in front of everybody. I fall a lot actually. Yep I do! Oh, one time a few years ago, I was grocery shopping with my mom, and she said I could get a TV dinner, which was pretty rare, so I was all excited, and so I was looking through them, and I found one, but I thought it might be kinda spicy, and I'm not very good with spicy foods, so I go up to my mom, and I go, "Mom, do you think this is too spicy for me?" and she goes, "I think your mom went over there" and points to the next aisle. Yeah, turns out she wasn't my mom. I definitely should have looked up instead of just staring at the cart... Oh, and a few days ago when I went to see PoA with a bunch of my friends, I was coming back from the bathroom before it started, and I had to get to the middle of the aisle. So everyone moves out of the way so I can pass them, but we all had our backpacks with us cuz we all took the bus straight from our last day of school. So I was just about to sit down and I tripped over my friends backpack and, yeah. Lol there was another group of girls there (probly 6th grade I'd guess), and one of them screamed when Trelawny grabbed Harry's shoulder. It was soooo funny!

Oh! I thought of an embarassing moment! Oh dang it I just forgot...just kidding...Oh! I remembered it again! This one time in 5th grade, we had to write these short stories, and then the teacher read them all out loud to the class. So I wrote this story about a horse named Chocolate, because don't we all know my obsession with chocolate. But, being 10 years old at the time, I couldn't remember how to spell it, and I think we wrote them in class. So I spelled it Chocolite. So, when my teacher got to mine, she reads the title, and says "Chocolite." Like Chok-o-lite. Dagnammit I told her it was supposed to be Chocolate, but she says, "But you wrote Chocolite." So I said, "I know, but it's supposed to be Chocolate." But she wouldn't listen and read the entire story pronouncing the stupid horse's name wrong! I did not like that teacher very much.

Sad...it's nice to get it out there! Shameless! That's too bad though. Stupid brothers...not that I'd know, cuz I don't have any, but they're a pain from what I've heard.

Oh, my... my most embarrassing moment - I have quite a few, unfortunately, and most of them have to do with flashing unsuspecting people. But here's my most recent one (no nudity involved):
Freshman year, we were assigned this HUGE project that was supposed to take about a year to complete. It was completely open-ended - we could work on whatever we wanted. So I chose to make a movie. Well, I had already been working on a film for my uncle's birthday, so I thought I could just add on to it and use it for my project, also. Well part of the movie involved a rap music video. At the time that I shot that particular scene, I thought only my uncle and his family would be seeing the movie. But I completely forgot about that when I decided to add on to that movie for my project. So, fast-forward one year. My project is complete, and I am very proud of the movie I've made. Now, this is not some average school project, in case you couldn't tell. We weren't presenting these projects in class to several sleeping students. No, no, no... the school set up a special presentation night. EVERYONE was there - my whole class, all of their parents, all my teachers, past teachers, future teachers, my principal, and several other principals from schools around town. And I had to show my movie to ALL of them! So it's finally my turn to present, and everything's going good - until the rap scene. Like I said before, when I filmed this, I thought ONLY my uncle was going to see it, so I didn't mind making a complete fool of myself. I completely overdid the whole scene (on purpose). I wore a hoodie that could have fit a thousand-pound man, and my jeans were practically at my ankles. And you know how rappers grab their crotch a lot? Well, I even overdid that, too... When I showed the movie to my uncle, he laughed his butt off - because he knows me and my personality, and he knows I would NEVER do something like that. But now here I was, showing this movie to TONS of people who I'd never met. They were like "Huh? Is she actually trying to rap?" It was really bad. The only people who laughed were my mom, my dad, and my three closest friends, for the same reason my uncle laughed so hard. But it was really embarrassing. I felt sooo stupid.

Sad...I laugh! I can picture it now...except I don't really know what you look like, so I'm just picturing a random hoodied girl who's pretending to rap, and it's making me laugh. Yes it is. Poor Red...

lol, my life is full with embarassing moments, but most of the i forget, coz i dont particually care what other people think. but this one happened last week. me and my friends were talking about The Fast and the Furious (you know, the movie) and i mentioned the scene where the main dudes gf says 'I smell *sniff sniff* skanks.' we were laughing and all, and were making our way to the locker room. (the lesson had finished about 10mins early, so people were still in classes) my year is basically full of sluts, and my friend goes, 'wow, thats just how our locker room would smell' and i agreed, and was being stupid, and when we got to the locker room i walked in and said 'I smell, *sniff sniff* ska-' and realised to my horror that there were actually some girls in there! and these were girls that know they're sluts too. ah, so embarassed! lol, they gave me daggers...my friends found it pretty amusing, though... (i know its not that embarassing, but ive got more, i just cant remember them at the moment...lol, must've blocked them from my mind...)

I have tons and tons of embarassing moments, but I can't seem to remember them at the moment but here's one...it was way back in second grade. I had to go to the bathroom reeeeeaaaaally bad. And at this old school you were not aloud to go anywhere without asking the teacher. So I had my hand raised for 5 minutes and she never once called on me. So I pee'd my pants, not just a little, all of it! All over my chair and the floor. It was so gross and I just about wanted to die. I hated my teacher from then on because she yelled at me saying "why didn't you ask me you stupid girl!!" She was such a nasty teacher.

Sad...that reminds me of in first grade, there was this girl who sat in front of me, or kitty corner or something, and we'd just gotten back from recess, and the bathroom break that we always had right afterwards. She raised her hand and asked to go to the bathroom. The teacher then asked why she didn't go when the rest of us did, and I think she said she didn't know. By this time she was close to tears, and after a minute or two, the teacher tells her that she can go. She replies, "I just went..." and I look down and she's in the middle of peeing all over her chair and the floor and everything. That's not all. Then the teacher makes her wipe up her own pee in front of the whole class. Oh yeah, in kindergarten I peed my pants during the prayer right before lunch on the third day of school. Go me.

I just rememberd another embarassing moment! It was when I first started Tae Kwan Do. I was being tested for my first belt. And since my name is Angelica, which means 'angel like' Everyone was teasing me about not being able to pass the test because I was such and 'angel'. And they were doing all sorts of weak moves and going "oh I'm sorry, for hurting you!" WHAT IDIOTS!!!!! I never once did that!
And another was when I was sparing with this bratty girl and I hit her rather hard on the arm. So she just sat down on the floor and refused to fight. It was so embarassing being the only one just standing there. For about 20 minutes. The entire sparing session...with people looking at me through the corner of their eyes. argh!!
