THAT AWKWARD MOMENT WHEN...
Some awkward moments my
friend and I randomly put together.
1. You're walking down a hallway and someone is walking up from the opposite direction in front of you. Do you stare straight ahead or do you look down and look at them once every 2 seconds 'till you pass them?
2. There's an empty seat
beside you on the bus and people are standing and the bus is packed but...no
one wants to take the seat.
3. Your teacher or professor
tells you a very personal story...serious TMI. How do you control the surprise
and shock from your face?
4. You‘re doing a bunch
of sit-ups at the gym and you accidentally fart. Oops.
5. Your walking and someone
is walking toward you and you both try to walk around each other but end up
stepping exactly to the same side.
6. You don't have your
glasses on and a few yards away is a friend of yours and you wave at them. When
you get closer you realize it's actually a complete stranger.
7. You're on the bus, walk
toward an empty seat, and someone else quickly gets there before you do. Yeah.
Gotta act like you weren't gonna sit there.
8. You come face to face with
a frenemy while out shopping or whatever.
9. A powerful gust
of wind causes your skirt and hijaab to fly around/billow.
10. You walk past a group of
Somali guys and they suddenly stop talking and watch you walk by. Da fuq
y'all looking at?
11. You‘re sitting in the
library and someone behind you asks you to watch their stuff for a few minutes.
You look up to say “sure“ but all that comes out is a squeak because you were
caught off guard by that someone‘s HANDSOME face.
12. You just
finished eating something "crumbly" like a cookie and when you
get up, a mini-shower of crumbs fall down from the folds of your hijaab.
13. You're at the sink of a
public washroom filling a water bottle and then take it into the stall with you
and non-Muslims are giving you that what-the-Hell-are-you-doing look.
14. You're waiting in a long
line for the cashier at Victoria‘s Secret and you suddenly notice that all the
other girls are carrying A or B sized bras while yours is...a lot bigger.
AWKS!
