So, for me, school starts again next Monday, and I have mixed feelings about going back, this is my last year at this particular school, and I thought it would be a good idea to recollect stories from people about their most embarrassing moments through their high school experiences.

I remember the day so well, it was the 22nd of October, I was in Geography for period 3. The teacher had marked our books. My school has this policy saying that we have to go back whenever our teachers mark our books and make corrections in green pen, so while I was doing that, I stumbled upon a piece of thick, short, ginger hair. I have a phobia of other peoples hair, and I can’t stand it when they’re invading my space, so I started having a mental breakdown and told my peers to get it off my book at once. They all laughed. As if I haven’t died and gone to hell, the boy in front of me suggested that the hair came from his beard. I was gob-smacked and ripped the page from my book. Next week when the teacher asked where my work went I said I was absent.

When we were in a teachers classroom for something, my friend was walking out and I pulled a really weird face, my teacher said “Lily, what a gorgeous face”, I was so embarrassed my face went bright red.

I have got a lot of school memories, that make me cry or laugh sometimes but one particular I always remember is when…
I was in class doing maths with two of my friends and three other boys were sitting with us. I couldn’t stand those three boys,they were so immature and always made me mad. Anyways, the teacher was a bit old, he tried his best to be hip with young kids but failed every time he tried. One day I got into an argument with those three immature boys and at the same time the teacher yelled at me to answer a stupid multiplication question, I replied with a “Wait a minute can’t you see I’m talking” then he got furious and he screamed “CAN YOU PLEASE MULTIPLY THIS” all the anger rushed to my face at that moment and I yelled “I’LL MULTIPLY YOUR MOM” the whole class nearly died from laughing. “GET OUT, DONT YOU EVER TALK TO ME LIKE THAT AGAIN” the teacher yelled, I slowly got up from my chair and grabbed my jacket and my bag. I was moving so slowly because I don’t liked to be rushed. He then yelled “CAN YOU HURRY UP” then I replied with “I’m not f***ing Sonic the Hedgehog” again the whole classes burst out with laughter. I got sent out of the classroom and yelled at by the teacher.

One time when I was in Year 7, meaning I must have been 11 or 12, we were doing a health education class and the topic was drugs, so the teacher asked people the names of drugs they know. People were saying all the usual stuff, I had vaguely read the name of a drug somewhere before so I pronounced it how it was spelled…it was marijuana.
As I raised my hand and said, “I think I know one…is it Mary-Juana?” The whole class burst into laughter. I have never been more embarrassed in my life.

I remember once when I was making my way down from the changing rooms for a PE lesson. I was with one of my friends and the teacher had run down in front of us, I had to climb down a lot of stairs so I was jumping down them. I got to a flight of stairs near the bottom and I’m like 6 foot so when I jumped, my head hit the ceiling and I collapsed on the stairs.
My friend wasn’t sure if it was the stupidest thing he had seen, or the greatest thing he had ever seen.

I joined in the trend of starting an “ask fm” page online;where people could anonymously message you. I got a couple death threats and people telling me to kill myself. I deleted the account within a month or two, but it was brutal. I was the kid whose best friends were the teachers and generally kept to themselves because I did not fit in at all. Hence my social media all relating to the perks of being a wallflower:)
Well, that’s all the stories I have for you, comment some of your stories below
