So, I thought it would be fun to flashback on Fridays and tell a story or share a picture from my past. And what better way to kick this off than to tell the story of my most embarrassing moment?!? I can't believe I'm doing this!!!
Ok, here it is......A few years ago, either my first or second year as an SLP at a small school, I was going through a typical day of speech therapy. Therapy at school, head start, lunch, bathroom break, more therapy at school. So, around 1:00 or so, I'm going to get a group of kindergarteners. I distinctly remember passing a group of junior highish boys pulling up on the awnings outside the cafeteria. And I also remember that said group of boys snickering and laughing. I kept on moving though. Get my kiddos, and head back to my room. When all of a sudden, one of the teachers followed me out and said, "Ms. Candace, check your back!" My eyes got really big wondering what in the world could be on me. So, I put my hand back there and felt. Oh. my. goodness. My eyes got as big as saucers then. I totally had a long strand of toilet paper hanging out the back of my pants!!!!!! Seriously. Not a short piece. I kept pulling and pulling and pulling until I got it all. The entire time thinking, "How in the world did this happen?!" How embarrassing is that??? I thanked her so much for telling me. My question was, "How many people saw this and didn't bother to tell me?!" As soon as I got to my room, a student brought me a note from the other kindergarten teacher to tell me. Thank you kindergarten teachers!
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is my most embarrassing moment. I have to say, I was mortified at the time, but now I think it is just funny. Moral of the story: if you see someone in an embarrassing situation, please tell them! Sure, it may be awkward, but the person will really appreciate it! Now, what is your most embarrassing moment?? I would love to hear it! :)
