Dance Disaster- Haley

So, at my school's Teen Center, the rooms are always packed during our weekly dances. Except we don't have those kind of dances where a guy asks a girl and they wear formal attire, nope, our's are ghetto and full of twerking and strobe lights. Because of the capacity, the floors are always extremely slippery due to all the body heat. During one of the dances a few months ago, a girl from my English class came up to me and wanted me to 'dance' aka twerk because I never do. I denied her request because, well, why would I humiliate myself in front of literally my whole school, but she wouldn't give up. She began to pull my arms, and let me tell you she is extremely strong, and tried to drag me across the dance floor. I started to run as fast as I could, which is very hard when having a hundred fifty pound body clinging to you, and lunged at my friends, trying to balance the weight out. Then all of a sudden she pulled with more force than normal and  let go, causing me to slide across the floor in a mere millisecond and then fall straight on my butt. It hurt for about a week and none of my friends would let me forget it.

Money Mishap - Caitlynn

In September, my friends and I were at a festival. They gave me the money to pay for tickets so that we could play the games. I walked up to the stand with the twenty dollars in my pocket. I told the person, "Three tickets for twenty dollars" giving the lady the money. Little did I know that each game costs one ticket. I walked back to my friends, giving them each their tickets. They looked at me like I was completely crazy. "What?" I asked them, completely confused. "Uh, you do know that with these we can't do anything besides get a drink, right?" One of my friends asked, still looking at me wide-eyed. I didn't know how the whole system worked or how much each ticket really cost and the lady at the stand didn't stay anything about it. I didn't want to go back to the booth or else I'd look even more idiotic. I held on to the extra ticket and began to think about how my wording actually sounded. My friends got the rest of the tickets while I sat there being my dumb self. Both of them came back laughing and smiling at each other. I knew they were laughing at me so I decided to laugh at myself, too, and to this day they still will  NOT let me forget those words..."Three tickets for twenty dollars."

Bizarro Backfire - Ariana

In July of 2013, me and three friends went to Six Flags New England. We then decided to go on the monster of all rides, Bizarro. But of course it had to be raining. I mean like freezing rain. We went inside a shop to dry off before we went on, even though we were going to get soaked. When we walked out of the shop, our friend was getting in line, and I ran to catch up. But I fell on the cement ground. Why did it have to be raining? .-. Everyone was looking, and when I went to get in line, tons of people asked my friend if I was okay. I said yes, but it hurt like hell. I was laughing when I fell though. Yeah, I laugh when I get hurt, it's a strange habit I have. I don't even know why. But, I will always remember that day, since it was so very embarrassing. At least there were no hot guys there XD
