Most Embarrassing Moment In High School?
Here's mine.

I went to Roosevelt High School In Chicago and when I was in 9'th grade I had my most embarrassing moment in my entire life.

Thank God we didn't have co-ed classes but our class was so filled that some of the people had to wait in the bleachers of the pool area to swim.

I was issued my Navy Blue bathing suit and back then I wore a size AAA bra or sometimes I would just go with a couple of band-aids because that's all I needed.

We had to wear a skull cap bathing cap with a strap that went under your chin. Not a beautiful site with the High School issued bathing suits.

Well anyways, I got in line to jump in the pool and since I had been swimming since I was 5 years old I got in the line for the diving board in the deep end.

I got on the board and I jumped up and down a few times and then I went into the pool. I came back up and started swimming and that's when something didn't feel right.
I heard people laughing in the bleachers and I didn't know what they were laughing at. The water started to feel even colder and I kept swimming and then it hit me.
My Damn bathing suit had come off when I went into the pool because I didn't have any boobs to keep it on.

I died from embarrassment and I didn't want to get out of the pool until I found that suit and put it back on under water. Has anyone ever tried to put a bathing suit on under water? It's doesn't work.

The whole area had to be evacuated and I had my friend Linda bring me my towel and I got out nude. Me Nude? That was a big deal for me because I would never undress in front of anyone and especially as a Freshman in High School.

When you were flat chested in High School you had to tie your bathing suit in the back with shoe strings but the freshman's don't know this.

2. Hmm ...
I think being grabbed by a teacher as I was doing an errand, being immediately bent over and paddled in front of all his students would have done it for me. (He mistook me for someone else.)

But that's what happens when fundies dominate the school board.

3. OMG You just brought back my Grade School Memories
I was a wicked spoiled brat in grade school.

Well one of the kids came in spelling like urine one day and I sat at my desk holding my nose.

My teacher asked me why I was holding my nose and I said that Stella Stinks teacher and I am getting sick sitting by her.
I had the whole 3'rd grade class laughing so hard that they fell out of their seats.

The Teacher immediately sent for my Sister who was in the Jr High that was next to the School and she told her that your Sister is going to be punished and kept after class.

I was put in the closet and hell I had myself a damn party in the closet.
I ate most of the kids lunches and candy that was on the shelfs and I took the change out of their pockets. After School I went to the store and bought myself a new toy with the cash that I had taken out of their pockets.
My Mom was called in the next day and I had to stay after class again and I was placed back in the closet and this time when the boys would come in I wouldn't let them out until they gave me a kiss.

Hey, they stopped putting me in the closet as punishment.

I decided that I was going to be the School Clown from then on.

4. Led out of school in handcuffs by a deputy sherrif.
I was arrested at school and taken away in handcuffs right in front of everyone. We had a keg party the weekend before, and I "borrowed" a lawnchair from a nearby house.(the ground was moist) I intended to return it after the beer was gone but I left the party early and let a girl have the chair. Well, later in the evening I guess the guys got stupid and burned the lawn chairs (3 other people had "borrowed" a chair). One guy was seen in the area by the owner of the chairs, the police questioned him and he sang like a bird. The cops wanted to make a point of this terrible crime and picked up all four of us at school and threw us in the county jail. The most embarresment came when I was brought into the holding cell area- the cop announced loudly- "Look out boys, we got a real criminal here! Grand theft lawn chair!" I was only there for an hour or two. One of my buddies parents were out of town and he had to spend the night there- even had to have a body cavity search!

A bunch of us girls went to Bakers Square and one person dared the whole group to walk out on the check.
I pulled my Car (dummy) up to the door and everyone that was at the table walked out and got in the car.
I dropped everyone off except two people who lived on my block and tons of cop cars were parked on our block.
I thought hell someone is getting busted and guess who the someone was?

10. The bill was around $30.00 bucks
Edited on Sat Nov-01-03 04:01 PM by corarose
I would say there was at least 5 cars in the front of my bldg and one in our parking lot in the back of the bldg.
It was like someone had done a drug deal or killed someone.

The got me because I drove the get away car.

I got taken to a lock up on Western Ave and they were notorious for strip searches and violating girls & womens rights.

They were all asking me what kind of Pie I ate and making a joke out of it.

The charges were dropped and my Dad paid the bill.

Seriously though, over a lawnchair, what a joke.

11. There was this one teacher
Edited on Sat Nov-01-03 04:16 PM by dolo amber
Miss Fortune (no kidding!!) who was a bit of a party animal. She happened to live a few doors down from where I did, and was often seen coming in at 1 or so in the morning after being out. My freshman year I had her for English, which was English Lit. and she would often walk up and down the aisles while reading some passage, poem, etc.

So this one day she's doing just that. (side note: the classroom was near the cafeteria, and sometimes you could catch a whiff of what was on the menu for lunch that day...this will be important in a minute.) My friend Rusty says to me "God, she must have been out all night, she looks like shit!", which in fact she did. So she's wandering the isles, reading...she passes by my desk and I (thinking I was smelling the lunchroom) blurt out WAY too loudly, "UGH!! It smells like FISH!"...

Needless to say there was not a dry eye in the classroom, and the worst part is I was so slow on the uptake I didn't even get it until after class when it was explained to me. :eyes: I still had people signing my yearbook my senior year with "It smells like fish"...:D

12. Our High School Whore
Use to walk down the stairs with no panties on and all of the guys would stand at the bottom of the staircase so that they could get a glimpse.

14. I felt sorry for Cindy
I kept an eye on her for years until she got in trouble with drugs big time.

I felt sorry for her and I helped her as much as possible. Her mother was the same way and her brother took his own life when he got married and his wife went out on him.

20. I am trying to find her because I have always worried about her
When she wasn't high or drunk she would come over to my house and my mom would feed her.

She was from a wealthy family but she was abused mentally.

I want to find her and I don't know how. Her last name was Paoli.

22. I went to the Prom with the guy that everyone made fun of...
I went to the prom with my best friend's brother, which everyone thought of as the class crazy person// I didn't give a flying fuck, so there we were. To make a long story short, I had on these really ridiculous platform shoes, so i eventually had to sit down, his overprotective sister (my best friend at the time)thought I was ignoring him, we got in a big fight, and I just wobbled on home on my 5 inch platforms after a scene...WTF I would have said had it been the thing to say at the time...Anyway, it was all good...I am still friends with all the aforementioned people to this day. And I still don't care to this day if i am seen with the Prom King or the guy that you all made fun of.

Just keep it in mind...back the underdog, you never know when they are the ones who will back you.

24. I had an opposite swim embarassment
I haven't been smaller than a D since I was 14 or 15 and I had swim class. It was the first week in my sophmore year at a new school and I bought a new bathing suit. Respectable looking bathing suit, light blue I think it was, but I had never actually worn it swimming before. Well, it got wet and the lining was too thin or something, and I got out of the pool and my young adolescent male classmates got a nice little show. My 'rack' was apparently discussed a lot after that. Moral of the story, our boobs have embarassed all of us at one point I think.

27. One of my friends stuffed her suit with Toilet Paper
She jumped into the pool and the toilet paper came out in a long trail that was attached to her while she was swimming.

I laughed so hard that I cried.

28. Not my chest, but
I still remember similar aqueous-induced transparency effects on some white gym shorts that I wore into the pool. All-boys' school, but still...

And I've lost my swimming trunks a few times since then, even in fairly recent years. Yes, I have an inordinate amount of trouble just keeping my pants on.

Diving and jumping and splashing around like a maniac doesn't help.

29. Hope the water wasn't too cold!
I remember it was for me, but I suppose that was better in my case. (I knew you'd like that story, Forrest).

30. You obviously know me too well
:D

Yes, cold water in your case just gave those hormonally-crazed young men an added dimension to their viewing experience whereas cold water in my case would've just ended the whole show. :o

And, being a single-sex school, nobody seemed particularly interested in my exposing the Conger Of Love, the Moray Of Amore, the Anaconda Of Conception. Well, not that I know of...

25. Mine is bad but I was lucky
I did some what was supposed to be THC(pills in the 70s). I took em on the way into school and by 2nd peroid i had zero depth perception. A friend of mine had the same reaction and somehow we both found the same place to hide and skip classes. I was a music person and knew that the band teacher would turn me in if i skipped.

I went to band and he knew i was f@cked up. He decided that we would site-read some thing for baritone and flute. I played baritone and we always sat in the back of the band. He told me to grab my chair and move to the front. I fell down like 5 times trying to walk the chair down the elevated platforms. Then I couldnt play at all, I couldnt read the notes. He called me in after class and read me the riot act of doing drugs before his class.

Later that year he asked if anyone knew a music teacher cause his assistant was leaving. I told him of my Bro. He interviewed him and gave him the job. My bro now runs the music department but, I am still embarresed that my teach used me as an example but I guess it worked. LOL sorry so longwinded.
