Hiya escapists.
So I was recently reminded of something that happened a couple of years ago:
I had just started upper secondary school, and met a lot of new people. On account of almost none of the people in class knowing eachother from earlier years, the first few days were spent fooling around and playing games to get to know eachother.
Stuff like sitting in a circle and telling people what your interests are and such.
For some reason, a while later, perhaps one month into the semester, all the students in my class were teamed up in pairs and asked to walk over to the next door classroom to introduce ourselves to similarly arranged pairs.
The idea was that we would take turns introducing the person we'd been paired up with to the other pair.
I'd been paired up with a girl from my class, we went and sat down next to a couple of girls from the class next door, and they each gave a short introduction of the other.
So did my partner.
"Hi, this is [Jonluw]. He moved here from a small town when he was a kid and on his spare time he plays the trombone." plus some other miscellaneous information, I'm sure.
Ah okay, whatever, my turn.
"Hi, this is... uh... Yeeaahhh... What's your name again?"
I'm not really sure how I got out of that one without being slapped, but the moment I realized I didn't know her name was maybe the most painfully awkward moment I've ever had to endure.
So: What's the most awkward experience of yours that you can remember?
