live, love, laugh. Just the way I like it.
At times when we are lost for words, we pause for a moment and blush because something awkward has happened.
I love reading timeline of friends on twitter, especially when they
tweet about their daily awkward moments. I thought about mine and here's a list of them.
That awkward moment when. .
- you stop at the traffic light and see the driver in the next lane staring at you
- the woman next to you starts breastfeeding her child in front of you
- you bump into both your exes and one of them brings a girl
- you are forced to say something so as to prevent feeling awkward
- you know he is lying but you play along
- you say something and everyone thinks it is about them
- two cars are waiting for your parking spot
- you are standing next to someone who is waiting for the same table for lunch
- when you say something you don't mean but your friends take it seriously
- you get wasted and mistaken someone else for your friend
- you call someone but mention the wrong name
- you walk into the lift and press the wrong button
- you forget to pay the bill until they remind you as you get up from your seat
- you see someone in the same shirt or dress as you
- you sing your favourite song but get the lyrics wrong
- you wish someone Happy Birthday a day earlier
- you wear your shirt inside out until a stranger comes up to tell you
- you walk into the wrong cinema and see that someone is at 'your' seat
- you cannot remember the name of the person who just waved at you
- you wave at an acquaintance who doesn't wave back at you
- you run out of things to say at a date
- you are forced to smile at someone you dislike
- you wear slippers instead of your heels/flats to work on a meeting day
- the automatic door doesn't open for you
- you realize you have been pronouncing a word wrongly your whole life
- you say goodbye but end up walking in the same direction
- you accidentally fart when you laugh too hard
- you walk into the wrong toilet with someone inside
- a friend is standing right next to you at the ATM machine
- a friend is staring at your screen when you are about to log in with your password
- you tell a joke and start laughing but your friends don't get it
- your client sends you a BBM or friend request on Facebook
- you send a corny text to the wrong person
- the driver beside looks at you funny because you are munching on a banana
- you discover your friend's porn stash
- my macho friends sing to BSB, MLTR and Spice Girls
- you order and eat more food than your boyfriend
- a group of friends start calculating their share of the dinner bill
- you are mistaken for someone else / a mother / an older sister when in fact you are younger
- you ask a question and nobody responds
What would life be without these awkward moments :)
