Especially during high school, everything seems to go wrong. Have you ever just had one of those days? Remember walking in the locker halls on a rainy day, you slip but catch yourself, and at the same time look around to see if anyone was watching. Hey girls, what about that horrendous run in your nylon? Trying to hide it seemed pointless because all day long everyone keeps reminding you of it, Hey Edna, did you know you have a run in your stocking? NO KlDDlNGl Didn't you feel a little silly when you fell asleep in class? You felt like you were falling out of your seat and you jumped to catch yourself. But you only caught yourself em- barrassed with the entire class staring at you. Then to top it all off, you had to walk to your next class with a bright red hand mark on s your cheek. Okay, l have a good one. lt was lunch time and if you were lucky, you had the chance to eat in that good ol' cafeteria. You were eating your fries and you dropped catsup on your shirt. You were highly upset with this so you gently slam your soda into the trash can and it accidentally spills on everyone next to you. How embarrassing! What were you to do? Those who have cars, did you ever stall in the middle of the parking lot? There was a long line of cars behind you and each and every person was honking their horns and yelling obscenities about your car, Then you try to play it off when it starts to move but discover that two people who felt sorry for you were pushing you off to the side. Gee, thanks. As life goes on, embarrassment always fol- lows, and somewhere, somehow, something will happen once to everyone. by Cynthia Gonzales iw. Y' , pw but V.: 5 W .W at . I f Q . ya if A .
