My Most Embarrassing Situation
Everyone has been embarrassed at
one time or another. It is that moment in
time when you wish the earth would open up
and swallow you. The anxiety and discomfort
felt during that time which may only last a
few seconds feels like time has stood still.
I remember so well when I had my
most embarrassing moment. I was in Form 4
and it was during the school recess. The
minute the bell rang for recess, I rushed to
the toilet because I had been controlling my
urges since class started. I didn’t want to miss
class because the lesson taught that morning
was to include tips for the forthcoming
examination.
Without realising, I had rushed to the
girls’ toilet. The prolonged control and an
upset stomach made worse by two glasses of
cold milk in the morning made me grunt and
groan in what I thought in what I thought was
the privacy of the cubicle. I thought I heard
giggling outside and wondered why the giggles
sounded unusually near. A few minutes later I
came out the cubicle and discovered my
horror that I had entered the girls’ toilet. To
make matters worse, the few girls standing
outside didn’t even turn away when I came
out. Instead they looked down at me, then
only they turned quickly away. Horror of
horrors, I had forgotten to zip up! No
beetroot could have matched the colour of
my face at this point in time!
The news of my predicament spread
like wild fire throughout school. I was truly
the talk of the town. I felt like I could either
walk around feeling perpetually self-conscious
and embarrassed or I could turn the situation
round, perhaps even to my advantage. I
remembered my mother’s words that ‘if you
can’t beat them, join them’. So I decided to
make fun of myself, to laugh at myself too. It
works. Everyone got bored after a while and
nobody teased me after that.
It was indeed an eye-opening experience for me. I have learnt that when
people laugh at you, you should laugh along.
You must not take yourself seriously. Learn to
look at yourself through other people’s eyes
and you will realise that most of the time
when they laugh at you, they just want to have
some fun. They mean no harm. If you can
make people laugh, it’s like bringing sunshine
into their lives and as someone said, ‘those
who bring sunshine to the lives of others
cannot keep it from themselves.’
