Speaking of being confused with a boy, that happens to me often.
Once I went rollerskating with a small group of friends to play hockey, and this old-ish but totally in shape man self-invited himself to play hockey with us.
He gave us all "a bad feeling", for whenever it looked like someone was going to lose their balance, he'd be right next to them hugging them till they fell over.
He crashed into me quite a few times too. Anyway, he confused my name, thought I was called "Michael", then thought I was called "Ginés" and thought I was a boy. XD
Finally though, I think he realised I was a girl and started calling me "pretty" or something, so we were all feeling quite a bit uncomfortable. Finally, one of my friends bent a bone, so we decided to go.

As for actual embarassing things... I've been through quite a few, none too grave, but one I can remember is:
This happened nearly a year ago, after the Christmas holidays, this new kid came to our classroom (and is now my best friend). So I decided to help him catch up in maths to what we had done already, and the tutor said I could change desk-partner and would be able to sit next to him, and I was somewhat-very happy about that.
So, when the class ended, and I had seen him leave, I jumped up very high and yelled very loudly "YIPPEE!!! THEY ARE CHANGING MY DESK-PARTNER!!" to my other best friend. All of a sudden, someone behind me tapped my shoulder, I turned round and it was the new kid, asking if I would still be helping him tomorrow.
"Of course-of course"
Luckily, I don't think he heard me, (or he probably did, but said nothing).
