My Ross Geller Moment
Once upon a time, there was a pretty cute boy in my math class. He as also in my English class, and I thought I saw him staring at me during English quite often... One day, during math, there was one minute left and I was trying to get as much of my problems done as I could before the bell rang. Out of the blue, cute boy says, "How many problems can you do in one minute? Ready, go!" Later, my friends tried to convince me that this was his way of flirting... but I didn't see it that way. Especially at the time. So I just looked at him and stared. I racked my brain of SOMETHING to say... but my mind was blank. How the crap was I supposed to respond to that without sounding like an idiot, "Um.. ten." ?? After 15 seconds of awkward eye contact, he says, "So.... none?" "Yep." I finally replied. And he walked away probably thinking I was the biggest idiot he's ever talked to. He hasn't looked at me or said a word to me since...
Wait for it.
Later, I was facebook stalking him (come on, we ALL do this). And you know how it is; after so long, you get pretty deep into photos, some of which are years old. While in these years-old photos, I tried to tap next, but accidently tapped over his face. Somehow, some freakin how, I managed to tag myself as him in the photo. So now I was tagged as him and he was going to get a notification about it and he would know that I was totally FB stalking him. I dreaded the next day at school.
The more I think about it... "Um...ten." probably would have been less stupid sounding than acting like a complete mute.

Grape Hazards
And another one from our friends in Germany!
I work in a supermarket. One day, I was walking through it to give a message to one of my colleagues. I was going pretty fast and was carrying the office phone in my back pocket. I didn't see a grape on the floor and I sliped and fall in middle of the fruit section. Everybody was starring at me and, in that moment, I realized that I crushed the office phone in my back pocket (because I am not the skinniest person).

Crashes and Crushes
Oh Germany...
Me and my friend, Dominique, went on a bike ride because we wanted to pick up our pictures from a photoshoot we had taken a week before. We picked the pictures up after biking for 30 minutes. On our way back we got ice cream. Back on our bikes, we were in a really good mood and were making jokes and weren't paying attentiom to the street. Then we crashed into each other. Not that this was allready embarrassing; we've been riding bikes since we are 3 and never really crashed. But, while we were picking up our stuff, my crush passed us. He laughed at us. In that moment, I wished I wasn't there.

The Opera Singer
#WhenSeeminglyGoodIdeasBackfire
Was walking through the parking lot with a friend and starting singing the Titanic love song "my heart will go on" and was singing really loud and obnoxious and got to the part in the song that has a big long note and I was singing it as loud and off tune as I could, while hitting my chest like Celine Dion does. Didn't notice my friend had gone and hid behind a car while a group of other people were coming my way. So the people totally stared at me thinking I was alone singing as if I was in the opera, all by myself. They just looked at me like I was crazy and I smiled thinking my friend would be laughing behind me, when I turned around and she wasn't there I was super embarrassed.

If It Can Happen, It Will
… And another from our German friend.
In Germany you have to do a presentation every year and it is worth a lot of points. I prepared a lot and, as always, was really into the topic. I was really confident about my presentation. My classmates always love my presentations because they’re funny, but you still learn a lot. I go up front, set everything up and start my presentation.

It was awesome, people were laughing when I made a joke and my teacher seemed to like it.
Then it happened. In Germany we still have chalkboards and, in the classrooms we were in, the legs of it were really weird and stood out. I totally tripped over it. It was so embarrassing. Everybody was laughing at me.
