16. Most embarrassing moment of your life so far

I am very much so what you would call an awkward person. Being naturally clumsy throughout my life has resulted in many countless embarrassing moments. It even seems like I am becoming less affected by humiliation. For example, I had managed to walk straight into a pole the other week and despite many people being around to witness the incident, I couldn't have cared less. Having said this, it may have been a one off because there have been plenty of other examples where I have been so  embarrassed I wished I could just curl up and dissapear.

One of the worst cases of this was only a few years ago. I had to stop off at the shop to buy a few ingredients for the food tech lesson later that day. It seemed a simple enough task and I had done it many times before so I didn't expect anything to go wrong. However, before I had even made it to the co-op across from school, I managed to trip as I stepped onto the pavement and fell to my knees. The matter was made worse by the fact that the lights were red so everyone in their cars were able to see what I had done and the fact that there were many other students around, also making their way to their own school.

In that moment, as I stayed on my knees, I though I had an idea of what Jennifer Lawrence felt like after tripping up the stairs at the Academy Awards (although I have to admit, I'm thankful it wasn't in from of millions of people and my favourite celebrities ). However, I didn't care who was there or not, I could feel myself burning up but I refused to let anyone else know so I stayed there for a few moments before finally standing up and dusting myself off, before walking through the doors to the shop, acting as though nothing had happened.
