We all have those embarrassing moments we wish that we could erase from our past. If you can manage to go through four years of college without doing any of the items on this list, you deserve a medal of honor.
1. Dropping a plate of food in the middle of a dining hall.
2. Falling up or down the stairs in public
Whether you’re sober or drunk, nothing is more embarrassing than losing your balance and eating sh*t in front of any number of people.
3. Unintentional, and potentially unforgivable, spelling error in a paper.
My friend once submitted a paper with the sentence “Achilles had a strong bong with his fellow soldiers.” His professor’s response: “Well, I hope he was not too high to continue his quest.”
4. Having the following conversation while passing someone on the way to class:
“Hey”
“Hey”
“What’s up?”
“Nothing, what’s up with you?”
“Nothing, what’s up with you?”
……
……
5. Opening a snapchat video - full volume - in the quiet section of the library.
6. Accidentally using the wrong bathroom.
7. Falling off a treadmill at the gym.
8. Crying in front of your professor.
9. Spilling a full coffee in the student center.
Not sure what’s worse… having every person in the student center stare at you or wasting a perfectly good Dunkin coffee.10. Getting caught doing the walk of shame in front of a group of prospective students.
11. Thinking someone is waving at you, but they are actually waving at the person behind you.
12. Walking in on something….
Let's just say there was no sock on the door.
13. Raising your hand in class, getting called on, then having every thought in your mind evaporate into the abyss.
14. Walking out in a towel while a tour is passing through the hall.
Just put your head down, run for your room, and pray that your towel remains secured to body at all times.
15. Thinking it’s Tuesday when it’s actually Monday.
Showing up to a class that isn’t even scheduled for that day, or skipping a class unintentionally, is bound to happen to us at least once during our college career.
