Gettin’ The Boot

I had just came home from my dad’s house dressed in a tank top, skirt, and knee-high boots when my mom told me we needed to leave for my basketball game right now! I quickly grabbed my jersey and shorts and ran out the door. When we arrived at the game, I ran in to join warm-ups only to be stopped by my coach. I looked down and saw that I was still wearing my boots! I ended up wearing my brother’s size 10 shoes on my size 6 feet. What’s even worse is that I tripped and fell not once, not twice, but three times during the game!

Hi...Mom!?

One day I was at the pool, and I was walking out to the car to go home. I saw my car and opened the door, put my seatbelt on and adjusted the music. I turned to say hi to my mom, but it wasn’t her! I wasn’t in my car! It was someone else’s car, and she looked at me like I was totally crazy! I ran out of the car as fast as I could! So embarrassing!

Watch Out, Waiter!

My friend invited me and my family to eat brunch with her family at their country club. It was a really fancy buffet, so my parents said that we had to be on our best behavior. I took some pancakes, syrup, and what I thought was whipped cream. I spread so much of the “whipped cream” on my pancakes that they instantly turned white. I took a huge bite…and that’s when I found out it was not whipped cream but horseradish sauce! I spit it out so fast, it hit the waiter in the face as he was arriving with our drinks. Everyone started laughing—it was mortifying! We were not invited to that country club again!

Dance, Dance Nightmare

My teacher put us into groups one day to make up a song to present in front of the entire school about drug safety. My friends and I put together all these cool moves, back flips, and cartwheels. When we got up on stage, I started counting down the group in 3, 2, 1. I started the song, doing all of the actions while the rest of my group just stood there and stared! I started to cry on stage, and for days everyone in the entire school asked if I was okay!

Pancakes + Syrup= Disaster?

While on vacation, my family and I went to eat at a buffet. I went to get some pancakes and syrup, and while I was walking back to the table I didn’t notice a huge pile of syrup on the ground. I stepped in it and slipped. My pancakes went flying, landed right on my head, and the syrup got stuck in my hair! Then I had to wait until everyone else was done eating before heading back to the hotel, which was so far away. That was a vacation I’ll never forget!

The Truth Comes Out!

I was sleeping over at my friend’s house, and I have this huge crush on her brother. Later that night we decided to play truth or dare. When it was my turn, I picked truth because I do not do dares. When the question came out as who I had a crush on, I quickly answered Josh (the name of my friend’s brother). When I heard him laughing behind us, I didn’t even bother to look back and just ran straight for the door!

Dress-Up Disaster

Last year we had a “Crazy Dress Day,” and I was new to the school. So little did I know that for everyone in my class, “Crazy Dress Day” was really just a day where we didn’t have to wear our uniforms. So, I showed up in big, ugly sunglasses, a feather mask from Mardi Gras, a weird shirt, ugly jeans, and cowboy boots. When I walked in, everyone laughed and then I noticed that everyone else was wearing normal, in-style clothes. It was so embarrassing!

Smelly Shoes

I was walking to school one day when I stepped in a huge pile of dog poop without even noticing! When I got to school, I saw my crush in the hall and we started talking. I noticed that a couple of girls laughed when they walked by, but I didn’t understand why until my crush leaned over, pointed down at my shoes, and waved his hand in front of his nose. I looked down to see the bottom of my shoe was completely brown! My crush walked away and didn’t talk to me for a month!

Feeling Hot!

Girl on FireIn class one day a boy was messing with the lamp next to me. All of a sudden the bulb exploded, and a spark landed on my head, setting my hair on fire! The teacher freaked out, grabbed a newspaper, and started hitting me on the head to put out the fire! Even worse, I had a bald spot for months!

Belting It Out On the Bus

My friend and I were in the back of the bus, listening to our CD players and singing really loud and off-key for the fun of it. Someone got in trouble up front, so the bus driver yelled at everyone to be quiet. But of course, we didn’t hear, and our eyes were closed singing along to the music. I finally opened my eyes to change my CD, and the entire bus was looking at me and my friend…and she was still singing! Kids were laughing, but our bus driver was really mad. I was too embarrassed to tell my friend, so I just hid down on the floor while my friend kept singing. I wanted to disappear!
