There was a time in my life when I had worked night shift (10pm-6am) and sometimes longer for overtime. This particular night I had went into work around 9pm and didn't clock out until around 8am the next morning. I was completely exhausted when I had gotten home and because I had forgotten to turn the air on,my apartment was really hot. Not really thinking I turn the air on,strip off my scrubs and fall into bed. About an hour later,I hear a knock at my door; still half asleep,I manage to get up and answer the door. It was a policeman that seemed embarrassingly surprised to see me....

Treadmill incident left scars, scars which still today can be seen. Like every other incident in my life, this brief story starts with good intentions. Our company did the Comrades race (56 miles/96 km) on a treadmill with teams of ten each running the distance. Our great strategy was to run as fast as possible, not stopping the treadmill when exchanging runners. The plan being that we would slow down the treadmill to a comfortable pace the next runner could handle. Soon it was my turn. In the excitement, I missed most of the instructions on when and how to jump on. In my enthusiasm...

I was at my friend's house for dinner one night. We were all sitting around her table. I was really hoping to make a good impression on her family, just because I just started a new high school and she was my first friend. Her family was so polite, I was afraid to do or say anything wrong. I had just gotten over a really bad cold that I had a few days before. When the food was being passed around the table, her dad handed me the dish of peas. Suddenly out of nowhere I had this huge sneeze comming on, and before I even had a chance to turn my head, I sneezed right into the dish of peas, TWICE!...

It was lunch break on my first day of high school and I had this huge crush on this guy since grade 7. So anyways I was talking to him and he was climbing on a ledge in the front of our school. I wanted his attention so I tried to climb up it too. I would have made it if I wasn't wearing a mini jean skirt and flip-flops so i obviously slipped off the side of the ledge and fell into the garden. I squished a bunch of flowers and my crush was laughing so hard. I laughed too, to cover up the shame, but I could feel my face turning beet red. I was so mortified and I had to walk around with a huge...

A while back I was new in town and at my first new friend's house. She was showing me this cute scarf she bought in New York, bragging about how expensive it was. I thought it was a rip-off, it was made out of thin cheap material, but she still loved it to death. Anyways, I was fixing my hair in her bathroom and I had some sort of allergic reaction to her airfreshener or something. So my eyes got all itchy and my nose was running. I had to sneeze and I grabbed her scarf by mistake. I sneezed in it and blew my nose carelessly. I was soo embarrassed that I could be so stupid so I hid the scarf...
