Embarrassing Stories!

Here are some embarrassing stories. I hope you enjoy (but not really they were pure terror for me).

1. You know that new song "#Selfie"? Of course you do. Well, when I find a new word I really like, I tend to use it rather frequently. So I found this word in the song "ratchet" and I wasn't exactly sure what it meant, but I used it anyway. My first period class is Science, so I walked in early (which is not exactly a usual thing, and I was über excited), and screamed LOUDER THAN I INTENDED TO "Guys, I'm early! Isn't that totally RATCHET?" And everybody cracked up and I turned beet red. No, I take that back, Beet-stains-on-your-fingers Red. Now my friend makes fun of me for it EVERY DAY.

2.  In my school you can go to this thing called extra help, which is where you go to the teacher either early in the morning or during lunch, for... extra help. I was a little behind in one class, so I went to extra help in the morning and got caught up. I was like six minutes early in the hallway, and there were about five or six people at their lockers. So I shouted "WHO'S READY FOR PERIOD ONE, D WING?" relatively loudly. And only one boy replied, "Me! Yeah!" and it was very embarrassing for the both of us.

3. Another gullible story. My friends convince me of lots of things, and recently small things. For instance, my friend Emmie (you know her if you read this blog) did this braided headband thing. It looked really good and matched her hair color exactly, so I thought she didn't. Three days later she removed it from her head and I gasped. "Got ya!" She yelled. Also I was away in California for a family event for a week, and O said, "By the way, while you were gone, they changed the announcements to period 2." So my teacher Mr. L. was talking wondering when the announcements were, and I replied, "Oh, they changed them to period 2." and everybody was cracking up to themselves. Later I learned it was because of testing. The next day, obviously, it was back to period 1. Now whenever we go too long without funniness/awkwardness/embarrassment, everyone brings it up. UGGGGGGGGGH

4. I was sleeping in my bunk bed until I heard a squeak. I abruptly shot up into the air. My best friend, S, was in the bunk below me. "Wake up!" I whispered. "Wake up wake up wake up!" She woke up looking scared. "WHAT'S WRONG?" she whisper-screamed at me. "Do you hear that?" I asked. She listened for a little while, but there was no squeaking. I sighed. "Just listen. It will come again." She rolled her eyes. "Go to bed, El." I heard a whatever coming from her as I climbed back up the ladder. But there it came again. The squeak. I could've sworn it was a squirrel! Coming from the corner of our cabin. Her head shot up. "I hear it!" She stuck her head back down into her bed. I confirmed she was sleeping when I heard gentle snores coming from below me. I slowly crept toward the corner. The only problem was that the counselor was sleeping right next to the squirrel. Finally I saw it, nibbling in a little corner. And- I can not make this stuff up- It JUMPED. I did a half scream, half OH MY GLOBS I HAVE TO BE QUIET OR ELSE EVERYONE WILL WAKE UP whisper yelp. The counselor woke up as I creaked open the door for the squirrel to escape. And that's how I got briefly yelled at (yelling meaning "ok it was just a squirrel go to bed) by my counselor for being scared by a squirrel.
Sheer...
Terror.
