myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life4 weeks ago

That was unexpected. I was walking on the way to the jeep stop and just before I rounded the corner I tripped for no reason at all! I didnt trip all the way, just kinda lost my footing. It would have been ok but the exact time I tripped, a group of high school boys rounded the corner and saw me. That wouldve been very VERY embarrassing but I guess I wasnt in the mood to be embarrassed. Just smiled a bit, held up my hand to indicate that Im ok and went on. Did I mention that they reacted and actually laughed at me? I just didnt care. cool What a way to keep my cool huh?

So whats your supposedly embarrassing situation but because you werent up to be embarrassed just went on your business??

Thanks for sharing!^_^


That was embarrassing...

bj:
only recently I had a similar plight when I tripped pout of nothing in front of a gang of boys. My hand bag went scattered and I was very embarrassed. luckily I didnt have any emergency. I stood up quickly, gathered composure and went on to walk upto the block. Surprisingly two of the boys helped me with the girly stuffs that went scattered. I was more embarrassed.

you take care, hon.


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  4 weeks ago

Yes there are moments we did that something we do is really embarrassing but since we are in a feeling cool condition we dont mind at all. When I was in a grocery store, I thought I saw my friend coming so when I approach her way she was on her back on me already so I just grab her hand abruptly as she knows it was only a joke but when she turned to me it turns out to be another person I did'nt knew. I said sorry but I cannot deny she was hurt as it displays her facial expression but I can no longer stand looking at her coz i want to laugh. I said sorry again, I was mistakingly regard her as my friend then I went walking away feeling nothing but cool huh!!!


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  4 weeks ago

Yes I think those are one of those moments. I had an experience like that before. I was looking at some statues in a show window and I know that my friend was somewhere beside me. I felt the urge to ask something and so I just tapped the persons' shoulder who was beside me. While I tapped I asked the question. Imagine my surprise when the woman turned to me and I saw that it was not my friend! I was embarrassed inside but I just didnt show it and continued to ask the question that I began. I acted as though I really meant to tap the strangers shoulder! Good thing the woman was nice and even offerd to answer the question.LOL! None of my friends even noticed that it was just an accident and they even thought that I knew the woman personally!LOL!

Thanks so much for responding and for sharing your experience.^_^

During elementary when a friend of mine and I were playing tag, while running, I accidentally lost my footing at a set of stairs and I tumbled down yet when I got to the end, I was standing.. and I still was thinking of my friend chasing me so I hurried again and ran away.. I just realized what happened when I had time to catch my breath..

In highschool, I brought a air soft gun, a rifle, and since I was seated near a window, I aimed for a few spiders. I could sense some of my classmates staring at me but, I was enjoying shooting with my rifle that I didn't bother to look for the expressions on their faces. Well, it does seem embarrassing that I was already in high school and I still bring such things at school lol

When I was in college... there were plenty.. rolleyes


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

LOL! The stairs thing reminded me of a friends trip and I witnessed it all. He was some steps behind me and when I turned around he was suddenly on his bum literally bouncing from the steps one after the other. Of course, kids were laughing and I did laugh too but only after he was laughing at himself. It was pretty funny. lol Good thin he was cool with it though and didnt sustain any injuries except for a sore bum. I guess there were lots of experiences during elementary be we were just too young and playful to care.^_^

Uhm...what exactly is an 'air soft gun'? I know what an air gun is but not an 'air soft gun'....care to enlighten me?....in those cases, that incident probably would be a common thing in my high school, not that guns are a common thing there but you'd probably get some attention not because they think you're weird but because they wanna try it out for themselves.

College?..really?..hmm, I guess most people dont care about what the others are doing and are usually left alone...

Thanks for the response!^_^


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago


Fluorescent lamps crashing down on a student during lunch, a head bleeds after stumbling over a classmates bag and hitting a corner of an unfinished concrete post, a pencil through someone's hand during intramural, too young and playful to care indeed.

Well, I guess both can kill when used initially to kill but, air guns have more capability on doing that compared to air soft guns. All I know is that air soft guns can either be loaded with paint balls or plastic pellets, depends to what it is compatible with. Air guns have ammo that are closely similar to real bullet composition. The one I have isn't an air gun since, unlike air soft guns, they are too expensive for a high school student's allowance.

Everybody respects individuality at college. thumbup

Your welcome happy


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

Oooh,, the pencil thing through the hand,..we had that in elementary as well as many trips and falls.

Are you just pertaining to the usual toy pellet guns that stings when you're shot with it?or are 'air soft guns' more complicated than that?


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

It should be hand with pencil but, some students still find ways to get pencils through their hands.. for some reason or another..

I guess those air soft guns would be closely resemble those toy guns which you described with those plastic pellets while air guns are closely similar with real guns..


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

ok, got it. thanks for the explanation. happy


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

Your quite welcome thumbup

Not sure if I am quite accurate on anything that I have given though.. doh


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

LOL.thats ok, you were the one who owned the thing so your entitled to give your own perspective.


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

Just air soft gun and some of those single action spring powered pellet guns.. though I wouldn't mind getting an air gun... then again, they all seem to be available as riffles and no hand guns around..


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

hehe, wanted to have my own pellet gun myself but my Mom didnt, if I went against her I wouldnt hear the end of it. good thing I have male cousinsthumbup

My Dad owns an air gun. Wouldve loved to go hunting with him but like Mom, he doesnt want me near the thing.tsk3 he doesnt hunt anymore though, but he used to let me buy the oxygen for him and we would always cook the birds he caught, for dinner.^_^


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

Well well, you know air guns better than I do, actually having someone who owns it makes a big difference..

Hmmm, I guess you weighed the scales.. getting a toy gun like that to satiate your interest or be told by mom on why you shouldn't (perhaps holding one while being told on the spot)..

Your dad hunts... camps and all that out door stuff or you just happen to have a safari at your backyard? rolleyes Seems very exciting.. binoculars, outfit that blends with the environment.. does the air gun sound like a real gun or something else? confused

I remember a show wherein snipers usually made the sign of the cross before they shoot their enemies.. during wars from before.. old school with no scope but just relying on what's on the rifle for aiming.. I don't know if we could also call it as cross hairs..


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

nah, he just uses his khakis and white shirt. not moving at all and waiting for the bird to perch somewhere near him..dont have a backyard and definitely dont have a safari(wouldve loved one though!^_^) we live in a city but other neighboring towns are not that much developed and are actually farms, he used to hunt in one of those. we visited one area and I saw real ones flying over the car.

like I said they didnt want me near the thing and that applies to my Dads expeditions as well.tsk3 so know way of knowing what sound they make.sorry. i can tell you what sound it makes when hes putting in the oxygen.LOL

Oh darn, this is just one of those moments when I though I wouldve pushed my luck in trying usually guys hobbies out.


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

Well, when you graduate.. perhaps plenty of moments like that could come up thumbup


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

hmm, maybe, doubt it though.


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

Doubt is one of the great things to have to appreciate surprises.. happy


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

hmm, arent you the pot of quotes tonight.^_^


myLot reputation of 97/100. ratyz5 (1780)   ranked 2,910 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

I just thought about it upon replying to your response.. not entirely taking credit though.. lol


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

I thought so...joke. lol

Doesn't it always happen when there is someone around to see you?! The best I ever heard was a friend of mine who had the elastic break on her knickers when she was standing on a crowded train. She was wearing a skirt, and her underpants just fell down around her ankles. She didn't move, then when the train stopped at her station, she simply stepped out of the knickers and went on her way! Totally cool.


myLot reputation of 93/100. bjcyrix (1138)   ranked 697 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

Oh wow! That mustve been something! and that was a really Mentos moment. lol
Wonder what the other people thought about it..?

Thanks for sharing this Penny.^_^


myLot reputation of 96/100. penny64 (443)   ranked 1,144 out of 25,718 in life  3 weeks ago

On a crowded train, I don't think anyone would have even noticed. I do often wonder what happened when peak hour finished, the train emptied and it became obvious that there was a pair of knickers on the floor. It must have raised a few eyebrows that day!
