"So one time it was like 7.30 in the morning, and my alarm clock didn't ring. I knew I was going to be late for school. My mom started yelling at me to hurry up, so I scrambled to get all my clothes on and pack all my books. Sprinting to the car, I pushed my backpack into the seat and yelled 'Let's GO!.' Then I realized I'd forgotten to do my math homework, so I started doing it in the car. We got to school and I stepped out quickly. And immediately felt cold gravel under my feet. I looked down and realized I wasn't wearing any shoes!! I had to wait a whole period while my Dad brought them to school, I had to explain it to my teacher and all my friends!"

Stage Fright

"So there was this one time when I was a lot younger that our school put on a play. I had stage fright but all of my friends encouraged me and told me I'd do fine - after all I only had to be on stage for a couple minutes. My whole family had come to support me, and they were all excited for my performance. So I get up there, and I see everyone staring at me. I was so frightened, and suddenly I felt a warmness in my pants. I looked down and realized I had peed myself. In front of all the parents and other students. Immediately bursting into tears I ran offstage."

I Told You So

"So, I was sitting at my desk one day and I was painting my toenails. My dad came in, and seeing me painting my nails, told me to move from my desk and do that in the bathroom. Annoyed, and like a good rebellious child, I yelled and told him to get out of my room. Fuming, I continued to paint my nails. Reaching for my nailpolish remover (since I'd messed up on a toe), I accidentally hit my bottle of white nail polish off the desk and it landed on my blue carpet - spilling it's contents EVERYWHERE. Shocked, I tried to mop it up and proceeded in spreading it all over. In the end, I had to show my dad and rolling his eyes, he said 'I told you so'."

Sneak Attack

"So, I was over at a guyfriends house before soccer practice one day over the summer. I was on the phone with my friend as I waited for him to wake up. He was taking forever, so I finally decided to go wake him up by jumping on him with a hug. I checked with my friend to see if it was a good idea, and she told me to do it. So I headed up to his room and I quietly entered. But he was sleeping so peacefully, so I asked my friend again if it was a good idea. We had a short discussion where she tried to convince me to do it, but I finally decided to sneak out of the room and just wait instead. I was heading out when I tripped and hit my head on the door. I hoped he hadn't woken up, but I turned around and he was staring at me laughing his head off. Finally he managed to hold back his laughter and added, 'Oh and by the way, I've been up this whole time listening to your phone conversation.' "

"One time, I was at camp over the summer. It was about 8 AM one morning and I was getting ready for class (we didn't have to be there until 9). So I was showering when all of a sudden I hear the fire alarm go off. I froze - I had no idea what to do. I heard one of my friends pass by and I asked what was going on and she said "I don't know, but you have to come out!" So I grabbed a towel and headed out to the middle of the field we were meeting at. Turns out it was only a fire drill, and I was forced to spend 15 humiliating minutes freezing to death while we waited to have our groups checked."

A Bad Hair Day

"So, a while ago I made fun of my brother for his new haircut. Angry at me for my teasing, he proceeded to take the ketchup bottle and squirt it into my hair, yelling angrily that now I could have just as ugly hair. But before I could do anything to retaliate, our parents yelled at us both and sent me to my room. Angrily I stormed up to my room and tried to take a shower. Little did I know that today was the day they shut off the water for the construction. Not only could I not wash the ketchup out of my hair, but I had to go to my tutor later that day. For the whole lesson I could notice her sneaking glances at my hair. I wonder what she thought it was...."

Flour Baby

"So it was the last day of having our flour babies and one guy accidentally dropped his and it broke, right in front of the science teacher's room. So, I went up and tried to help him clean up. I grabbed a handful of flour and held it up to my face. Next thing I knew, my face was covered in white flour. My friend had come up to me and hit the bottom of my hand and the flour had sprayed all over my face. Little did he know that our science teacher had walked by at this exact moment. He gave the boy a detention, but it was no punishment compared to my ghostly white face."
