This is awkward. You are awkwardly trying to give someone a hug, with stuff in your hands, and you accidentally touch their tata's on the way. Their reaction can be several things: 1. Laugh awkwardly 2. Actually laugh with you (depending how close you are with them) 3. Look at you like your a creep. This situation is even more awkward when its a teacher. Yes that is right I touched my teachers boobs. I happen to be pretty close with this teacher so I went into her class to tell her I got a job. I put some of her hand cream on, because that is what I always do, and she is shouting and screaming excitedly. She goes and hugs Georgie and then comes to give me a hug. I am holding my binder,which is slipping out of my hands and putting hand cream on, when she comes to embrace me. Me, trying to hug her back, accidentally touch her boobs. We both noticed, but luckily she thought it was funny. But still SOOOO AWKWARD!

Awkward Moment Eleven: Standing by yourself in a public place and trying to look cool.
Here is how it all begins. You're standing with a group of friends waiting for your ride after school. Slowly, they all start to leave and before you know it you're left standing alone by the fence, staring at the ground, at your phone with its non-existent text messages, at the inside of your purse, anything to avoid the heavy air, thick with silence. I don't know what it is, but it seems like people to need to feel occupied at all times, especially when standing by yourself in a public place.
So there I was, all alone and trying to act casually nonchalant about being a complete loner. It was a swelteringly hot day in May and there were these annoying bees buzzing around. I wasn't too bothered until one began to repeatedly dive-bomb at my face. I tried to stealthily swat it away, probably giving bystanders the impression that I had a nervous twitch. But to no avail; it just wouldn't leave me alone. And then there it was, flying back towards my head, making that awful "ZZZZZZ" sound right in my ear. I began shaking my head with my eyes squeezed shut, hoping against hope that it wouldn't sting me. I was feeling very awkward and wasn't paying much attention to what I was doing. Suddenly I realized that my thoughts, which usually do a decent job of staying in my brain, had decided to slip into the back of my throat and out of my mouth. "It-it-it's a bee!" I stuttered, as if the rest of the world had no stinkin' clue what it was. I did a quick side-eyes to check if anyone around me was looking. That was when I noticed Mia and Georgie in the car parked by the curb in front of me. I took a few steps forward and smiled at the glass. I began to say something out loud (as if they could hear me), and was about to put my face up to the window when the car pulled away. I made an awkward laugh/choking noise and went back to the spot where I had been standing. AWKWARD!

Awkward Moment Seven: Laughing at something that no one else finds funny
I have this problem. I laugh at everything, even things that really aren't that funny. And isn't it just so awkward when you get started and just can't stop? In fact, the more you try to stop the more you laugh. It just causes problems, because then you're trying to contain it and it comes out sounding like a dying cat or a snort. And then people look at you funny and you laugh harder. And then you laugh at your own laughter and eventually forget why you even started laughing in the first place.
This basically happens to me every day of my life. But there was this one time that was especially awkward. My friend Penny and I went to another friend's birthday party. We were the only one's there that didn't know anyone else. We were all sitting around the table eating veggies and dip and no one was talking, so Penny decides to loudly announce "I'm allergic to dip!" while simultaneously scooping up a huge spoonful of it for her carrots. Everyone just stared at her, deadpan expressions on their faces. I nervously laughed, knowing she is not allergic to dip, how can you even be allergic to dip! Realizing that people were taking her very seriously, Penny says "Just kidding!" and starts to laugh hysterically. I guess she was just trying to make conversation, which clearly did not go well. Everyone continues to stare and suddenly overcome by how funny the situation is, I start laughing uncontrollably along with her. We are in absolute stitches and clutching our stomachs, tears sliding down our cheeks. We can barely look at each other because it just makes us laugh harder. Once we regain control of ourselves we look up and realize that everyone is standing up and slowly inching towards the door, with a mixture of concern and grave seriousness plastered over their faces. It makes me want to start yelling like a crazy person "I'm not insane!!! Stop staring at me! I'm completely normal!" But I don't think that would solve anything. The entire party then proceeds to leave the room and Penny and I just sit there in silence, grinning at each other. It is one of those situations that only ever happens in the movies; a group of strangers' jaws just hanging open like that, with wide eyes and nervous looks exchanged amongst all. SO awkward.
