My Most Embarrassing Moment
Most Embarrassing Moment

I was in 5th grade at Quail Valley Elementary (QVE). Our class was writing reports on animals. I was a stutterer, and had been since I was 3 or 4 years old. I had picked "Sharks" to report on. I knew I would have to read my paper aloud to the class when I turned the paper in to my teacher, Ms. R. Knowing that, I tried to make my paper as short as possible. Ms. R was a new teacher at QVE. Our principal was disabled, and couldn't walk, but she had no problem getting to each new teacher class and checking on the teacher. The principal would roll around to each class with one of the school's new teachers and just sit there on her wheels and watch the class. I had finished my Sharks report and we were sharing our reports. When it comes to my turn, I get up in front of the class, smack on my charm smile, and begin stuttering. Our principal rolls in and starts watching me. I can tell she is about to throw up from watching me stomp my feet and roll my head. Poor Ms. R. What will the Principal think of her now? One of her students can't even read. Unfortunately, my teacher didn't let me sit down. I had to sit there for 30 minutes and [try to] read my paper. I think finally she let me stop, the entire class was probably swimming in my tears by then. That was the most embarassing moment of my life thus

    I thought it was going to be a normal day in first grade.. Boy was I wrong! We were learning about different plants and animals. And of course, insects. At the time, I went to an elementary school called Thunder Mountain Elementary, in Grand Junction. We were sitting in groups and the lights were off with the projector on. If I remember correctly, we were also taking notes. Our teacher, Ms. White was, well, teaching us. That’s kinda what teachers do. Maybe teachers do other things we aren’t aware of.. Nah. In second grade, teachers were like, Einstein and the smartest of mentors, not saying that people still don’t think that now. Teachers are awesome and have some of the best or worst stories to tell. But, before today, I didn’t really mind…

    Now as I reflect back on what was the negative thing that I can remember about my experience would be during my second grade. The teacher was not very nice and she didn’t believe in extra bathroom breaks. I had asked her during our reading time could I go to the washroom, she told me that no one was allowed to leave her class during reading time because that was the most important part of the day. When she called on me to read I was not prepared because I had not been focusing on the book, and she knew that I was not a very good reader, and I really needed to go to the washroom, well because I could not hold my urine, I ended up going in my pants. That made her mad, and she made me read anyway. I was so embarrassed.…

    I raced over by the teachers who were standing in a circle chatting about the activities planned. I ran up to my teacher and blurted out, “Mrs. Bone! I don’t feel good, I think I’m going to…” Without being able to finish my sentence, I was throwing up into my hat. All over. Kids laughed, teachers were shaken and I was disappointed in myself for not keeping my promise of not getting my hat dirty.…

    I walked in on the first day of freshman year, not knowing what the school year held in store for me. I had no idea what classes and teachers were assigned to me. We went to our first period, which for me was Geometry. The bell rang and came second period. My schedule said "Public Speaking," but I did not have a clue on what that was. I began to get tense and anxious because surprises are not my thing. The teacher walked in and said, "Hi, welcome to Public Speaking. You'll be learning how to speak in front of a large group of people. We will be reading speeches and also debating against one another." My heart dropped. I started to get even more edgy. All my life before freshman year, I struggled tremendously to speak in front of a class. My…

    Sixth grade, the first year in the new middle school building. It was about the third week into school and a teacher came up to me and asked me to watch over this kid named Justin. (He was different from everyone else, he had a birth-defect.) I said sure, why not, he seems to be nice. He only had one friend, and that one friend I wouldn't say was a good one. Later that week I was called into the disciplinarian's office, her name was Mrs. Landry. She was the seventh grade Social Studies teacher. So wanted me to tell her everything that happened, I didn't what to tell her,…

    For 3 years I was required to take take speech therapy during the school days because of my speech impediment. At the time I had no clue that only certain students, like me, were required to take this class. I just thought it was a class to sound out funny words and eat snacks, not knowing that I had a speech impediment. While in this class the teacher would make fridays ‘board game day’ and on this day she would pick a leader to instruct the group of how to play. Being the shy child that I was, I resented this day because I was almost always the leader. As the years went on and the end of my time in this class came to a near, I had begun to break out of my shell. On the very last day of this class I was yet again voted as the leader but this time was different because I wanted to lead and let my voice be heard.…

    It was a normal September morning. I was in my second grade class with my favorite teacher Mrs. McClellan. We had just arrived to school and put our backpacks in the closet. We had already been through the normal announcement process and said “The Pledge of Allegiance.” My teacher wanted us to clean our desks with shaving cream, so my classmates and I were spraying shaving cream all over the desks and playing around when our class phone rang. My teacher answered the phone and began to shake. She dropped the phone suddenly and fell to her knees and began to cry. All I remember seeing after that was our principle and other teachers scrambling to get all of us out of school and on to the buses as quickly as possible.…

    Later on that morning I am sitting in my first period class which was speech. I am starting to feel extremely tired and I fall asleep for almost the whole period which was 90 minutes at the time. It was near the end of class, when there was about only 20 minutes left, I instantly woke up and felt like I was going to get sick so I quickly asked “May I go to the restroom?” My teacher must have known something was wrong because she sent her assistant with me. Once I was in the restroom, I pulled out my phone and tried to dial my great grandma so that she could come pick me up, but the numbers started to look blurry. The lady who was with me asked “Are you ok, are you ok? Do I need to go get help?” The story from there on is kind of a fog. I do remember being asked if I wanted to go to the nurses’ office.…
