Tripping trauma

It was Friday afternoon and I was so keen to get out of school that when the bell rang I ran outside as fast as I could. However, I tripped over the step and fell flat on my face in front of all my classmates. If that wasn't bad enough, it caused a major nose bleed! OUCH!

Slushy slop

I was on holiday with my family and we went to the talent show. One of the performers asked everyone to swing our hands in the air - so I did, but forgot that I was holding a slush puppie and it went ALL over me! Everyone turned round and was laughing. MEGA cringe!

Solo shame

My class was singing in music, and I was getting really into it cause it was my fave song by Jessie J. I was so caught up that I didn’t realize that everyone else had stopped – and all that was left was me wailing my heart out! Mega-cringe!

Shaming somersault!

I was running around the playground when I heard the school bell ring, so I charged over to line up. Suddenly I slipped on the wet ground and landed on my bum – in front of my entire class! Cringe or what?!

Finale fail

I was playing the lead role in my school’s play, and we’d made it to the finale when I had to sing a last song. Everything was going fine, until suddenly I tripped over my microphone’s wire! I fell flat on my face in front of the entire audience – sooooo embarrassing!

X-tremely embarrassing

I was playing X Factor with my cousin one night. It was my turn to sing, but just as I opened my mouth, a fly flew in and I choked! My cousin could NOT stop laughing!

Slap shame

I was swimming with my BFF when she said that she could lift me in the deep end, but then she let go of me. I can’t swim so I began to panic and started waving my arms about, and then I accidentally smacked a man across the face! Total cringe!
