Today I successfully taught 15 minutes of Advanced Composition with my zipper down. That's right. I was wearing my chocolate brown capris, my brown flats, etc. My hair was pulled into a trendy side bun, and I was looking cute! I made a huge deal of getting their attention at the beginning of class so that I could have all eyes on me. They brainstormed, we flourished, and then I regrouped them. One of my girls said to me, "Miss Cook, I need to talk to you." I walked over to her desk and noticed a look of terror in her eyes and realize that she was TERRIFIED of telling me something embarrassing. At that moment, I realized that my zipper was down. I said, "Oh, man. That's awkward," and proceeded to do up my pants. She said, "I didn't know what to say" and I assured her that I would much rather her tell me than let me go on teaching. Case closed?
Not so lucky! At the end of class, a male student said, "Oh. Was your zipper down then? I couldn't tell. I kept looking to try to figure it out. I thought maybe it was just the style of your pants." AWKWARD!
Dear reader: please! Tell me something embarrassing that you have done lately. Make me feel better! :)
When I was teaching primary, the children had to help me give the sharing time presentation. So a week in advance I had to call up all the parents to help there kids get ready. The first parent I called, I so bluntly blurted out with out thinking first, "Umm ARE YOU THE FATHER OF YOUR CHILDREN"? And he paused for quite some time and laughed and said "Yes I'm pretty sure I am". I really meant to ask "Is this CI's father? I was very embarrased to go back to church the next week. LOL Any ways that is just one of my most emarassing moments. Love ya V
