Can you remember some embarrassing moments when you just wish the earth would open and give you a safe haven to hide? I'll give you two of mine: Incident 1: I was running to catch my school bus as a teenager when the next thing I knew I was no longer on my feet but skating away on my stomach. When I got up I had no idea my pride would have gotten up with me. I looked up only to find that it all happened in full view of the entire bus of students and passing traffic. Dirt, bruises and wounded pride I collected my books from the ground and made it across the road to the waiting bus.............. God that was a moment. Incident 2: I was attending the funeral of a dear friend (God rest his soul)who died in an accident. Thankfully a bright spark entered the gloomy picture that day. I saw a guy that I had a crush on (he was a young doctor and so was the deceased). We had never spoken and I would never allow him to know of my crush (under normal circumstances), but there I was standing there with sis and friends and he was passing by. I grabbed a camera and decided to make a quick snap.........only as I peeked through the lense ready to click I noticed he was staring straight at me.....................oh well I clicked anyway. So whats's your story?

hah theyre funny. Once we were making choco truffles at school using hot chocolate powder, and I ate some (a big no-no) and the teacher came over and said "nicole I didnt just see you eating some of that did I?" I smiled and said "no sir!". What I didnt realise was that the hot chocolate powder was spread over my teeth.

That sounds so much like the perception that once their face is hidden then they cant be seen. Such innocence. (lol)

This happened when I was in High School. We had a student teacher in our English class, and I had a major crush on him. This particular time I had a horrible cold and didn't dare travel without kleenex. I used my last one just as class was starting and my extra box was in my locker. Well the runny red nose was bad enough, but I had to have that extra touch of horribleness. I felt a sneeze coming, I hoped like crazy that the sneeze would go away---but of course it didn't. I managed to cover my nose and mouth before the sneeze exploded, but I ended up with a hand full of snot!!! I slowly pulled my hand away from my face to see how bad the snot ball was, and as I was assessing the damage I heard behind me "EEEEWWWWWW!!!!" I rushed to bring my hand back over my face, stood up and went up to ask for a hall pass to go to the restroom. This gorgeous man looked up at me with those big brown eyes and I wanted to die. I didn't even bother to ask permission, I just raced for the bathroom. I didn't go back to class out of utter embarrassment. The next time it was that I had dihairria. I got to the girls restroom, but it was the one that teachers and students used to smoke between classes. I knew that I wouldn't last through class so I waited. Of course I ended up being late for class and when I got there the instructor (who was also the football coach) demanded to know why I was late. Being shy, I told him that "Mother Nature called." He looked at me and said "I don't care about your personal calls, where were you???" I sighed and decided to try again "Mother Nature called." It went past him again and he got a bit crabbier and stated "I don't care about your personal calls, where were you?" The students in the next classroom started to laugh at that. I decided to try one more time and stated "Mother Nature CALLED!" He looked at me, and was really angry and snarled "I don't give a damn about your personal calls, where were you???" The kids in my class room were starting to snicker. I finally gave up and snarled right back "I have dihairria and the bathroom was full and I had to wait to take a crap!!!!" By then both classrooms were laughing out loud and my teacher left the room totally embarrassed- we didn't have class that day.
