"My mom dropped me off where my BFF lives, but I wasn't sure what exact house it was because it was dark outside and we I couldn't find any of the addresses. I walked up to the house I thought it was, rang the doorbell in my pajamas with my sleeping bag and stuffed animal in my hand, and a boy from my class opened the door. My BFF's next door neighbor. He laughed, I said I was sorry, and I ran to the next house."

"I was on my instant messenger, and both my BFF and my crush were online. I wrote to my friend, 'OMG! Dave is on, what should I say?!' and then I realized that I sent the IM to the wrong person! Dave signed off right after that, and hasn't talked to me since. So embarrassing!

"An older cousin of mine was getting married, so all of us girls went to get pedicures before the wedding. I had never gotten one before... and I am very ticklish. I was talking to my aunt when my pedi started, and as soon as the woman rubbed the bottom of my foot, I kicked her under the chin and splashed everyone with water. I guess I can't handle those, and I really caused a mess, too!"

"My parents finally let me go from glasses to contacts, and I was so excited to show off my transformation at school. I was talking a few of the guys in my homeroom and, out of habit, went to push on my glasses, and I ended up poking myself in the eye! I poked it just right to make the contact fall out into my hand, too! Not what I was hoping for!"

"I went shopping with my mom for some new outfits, and when I wore one of the shirts to school I figured out that the material was actually really weird, and when I was cold my underarms made sweatmarks! In one of my classes we had an activity where we all had to reach our arms up, and everyone saw the marks, I was so embarrassed!"

"It was one of those days that I felt super confident and decided I would talk to my crush. As soon as I walked over to his locker and smiled, I felt a weird tension. He seemed uneasy, my confidence was gone. Without looking at me, he rubbed his mouth a little and said, 'You got a little something in your teeth...' I don't even remember what I mumbled after that, but I ran into the bathroom and sure enough! Thanks a lot, granola."

"My boyfriend wanted me to hang out on Friday night, but my parents made me stay in because of a big test at the start of the week. He called me later and said he was outside my house, so I started climbing out through my window and then tripped and slid down the tree I was going to climb down. My parents heard the noises and came outside where they saw me on the ground all scraped up. When they realized what had happened they took a picture with their camera phones and uploaded it to their Facebook saying, 'This is why you shouldn't try to sneak out.' Now all of their friends are laughing at the picture and I feel so lame."

"My parents are always at work when I get home from school, and my older sister is always with her friends driving around town. I got home from school one day and was so excited because I was completely in love with my new crush. I called my BFF and started shouting and leaping through the house, when I suddenly realized that all my sister's friends were sitting in my living room. They were over to film a movie for their video-editing class, and had me on tape. Now they use it as blackmail, so embarrassing."
