One of the most embarrassing moments of my life. I still cringe at this one:
Last spring at lunch I was reading, "Sexual Opinions," or something, because I was doing my controversial MLA issues essay on why sex ed should be taught in school. (A very easy topic, actually.) I needed quotes, background info, etc.
And of course, me and my friends were laughing at the book too, but that was besides the point.
So there I am at lunch, reading my book.
The table with the most "popular" (and gorgeous) guys in school was right next to ours. (They're sooo arrogant that I can't stand it, but they are still beautiful). Tom came over and was all, what are you reading, and I freaked out and was all, "For my project!" and even pulled out my notebook to prove it. (In hindsight I realize I shouldn't have done that). Tom grabbed my notebook and started reading my essay.
And I just remember the scene in my head when the whole "popular" guys table turned their heads to look in my direction.
Oh my goodness, it was awful. I was afraid to go to school the next day because they were all in fourth period. I was afraid they'd say something. But they didn't. Hopefully they don't really remember the incident. It was traumatic for me, but hopefully a non-event for them.
I'd like to say I don't care if they think I'm a pervert or whatever, but I do.
