M1: Em BARE Assed.

The most embarrassing moment of my life, okay. Well I find that the word embarrassing is rather embarrassing.  Em BARE Assed.

Okay, I’m ready now.

I think that I am most embarrassed when other people are embarrassed. I don’t really get embarrassed because I laugh at myself. But when someone else falls and I witness it…forget it. My face is beat red, I’m trying so hard to keep it together, and I have to walk away. So, if I had to choose an embarrassing moment I would pick the moment when an old friend and I were walking around outside, about to get picked up from school, and it had just rained. Now, let me introduce you to the place where this incident took place…Alden High School.  The walkway outside of the gym is great, right? Well not if it just rained and your foot slips into the half-grass-half-mud mess on the opposite side of the pavement.  This particular day it was extremely muddy and my friend and I went to turn the corner to get to our parent’s car. She was the closest to the end of the pavement and when we turned she ran out of room and stepped into the mud. Cue embarrassing moment: her foot rejected the ground and sent her body flying into the air, only to land, heavily, in the mud on her butt.

                I am dying.

Because of the way she fell, the mud was able to make a straight trail up her right side. She, of course, had shorts on (I believe they were white) and the mud was sloppy. I couldn’t help but bring out the loud laugh. The laugh where you begin laughing and then go silent for 3 to 5 seconds only to come back with a roar that could also be considered embarrassing (I happen to have one of those laughs).

Once we stopped laughing the embarrassing part, on my end, kicked in. HOW DO YOU ASK A PERSON IF THEIR OKAY AFTER THAT? Seriously though, it was really awkward.  On the real.
