Musical Chairs

About a year ago, my church was holding a Vacation Bible School (VBS) for 3 days and I decided I'd join and become a Jr. Helper. Basically, I would help out with cleaning up the crafts or make sure the kids stay in line and pay attention to the sermon or whatever.
I'm thinking it was the second day and a guy named Jared asked if I wanted to play Musical Chairs with the kids. So I said "Sure." **KEEP THIS IN MIND** Everybody was out there, all the teachers, all the Jr. helpers, the kids of course, literally everybody.
Anyways, cutting towards the "excitement", I was one of the three standing and there was a chair in front of me but kids where running everywhere so I couldn't get to it. At some point I just went and by the time I got there a kid was already sitting there. I really don't know how this happened... but I tripped over my own foot and nearly fell right on my face. Remember what I asked you to keep in mind? Mhm. Everybody saw. All the teachers, the kids. I heard some of the kids laughing at me, I wasn't really effected by the laughing just the point that I actually fell in front of everybody and that they will live to tell their grandchildren about the graceful fall of Elena. So I went to go sit next to the others who were out of that round and I basically face-palmed and just sat there.. in shame.

The next round I played, and this guy (let's call him Andrew) was out of that round the first time. I think I was out after him, so I sat next to him and he said "Hah, I can't believe I got out the first round..." and I was thinking 'Seriously? Didn't you see me? I practically fell on my face and I think that's more embarrassing then being out the first round, Sir'

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed that.
