STORY: MOST EMBRASSING MOMENT
I suppose one of the most embarrassing moments that happened to me was about 6 years ago,
and that I went to school without any books. I was studying really late that night, I almost
stayed overnight that day, but it turned out that I forgot my books at home the next morning.
So I was sitting in a Math class and the teacher asked all of us to take the books out, and as
the students were taking the books out, a supervisor entered the class to check attendance.
When I put my hand in my bag, I realized that I had forgotten the books at home, everyone in
the class was with their books on the table, but I was the only person not to do that as I had
no books. The supervisor noticed that, he came to me and asked me why I had forgotten the
books at home. I explained that I was studying late the previous night, and I was in a hurry
that morning so I messed everything up. He said that there would not be any good excuse for
such case, and claimed that I was not willing to learn Maths. That was such an awkward
moment and I felt like crying. The entire class started laughing at me and I had been a new
dumbo to them since then.
I think embarrassing moments like this are undeniable in our life as they are beyond our
control. However, if you are more careful, try to concentrate on your work and spend a little
bit of time checking everything before proceeding to something else, these incidents will be
considerably avoided.
