High school survival guide # 10- Navigating your way out of awkwardness

High school survival guide # 10- Navigating your way out of awkwardness

Before you actually read all of these stuff I wrote, note that this will actually not help you within the mildest range because I will write my experiences and just rant about it.

Its actually a kind of personal blog of mine that will tell you of the many awkward experiences I have encountered but I will only provide my top 5, and mind you this was not as easy as it looked. Also I will be counting down so the most hilariously awkward will be at the end.

DONOT SAY I DIDN’T WARN YOU…….

Ergo, let the list begin!!

Number 5- Family events
Okay, admit it or not we all have encountered awkward family events, where all of the family, and I mean all of them raging from aunts to cousins, come over. And whether you like it or not itll be awkward unless your family is Brad Pitt’s.

Hence my story goes like this:

My fifth birthday was “celebrated” with the rest of my family, knowing my family there really judge mental, and when I was a kid I was really really fat, (p.s I still am, if youre wondering) ergo they’d judge me, NON STOP.

But on my actual BIRTHDAY, my cousins took it too far. I got into a fight with them and that caused A LOT of tension and drama.

 My aunt who came home from California, forced me to apologize to my cousins, and when I didn’t budge, she grabbed my hand and dragged me. DRAGGED ME. so it was kind of awkward to get dragged on your birthday.

Number 4- Mordecais + Ex crushes+ Awkward lunch= AWKWARD LEVEL 900000000000000000

Let me give you an over view on this, (a) Mordecai is a name to describe a person, who we really dislike, (b) The ex crush who will be starring in this awkward moment is my recent ex crush from 6^th grade, Who with no shame, asked to my face if I liked him, and me being a sixth grader I didn’t know what to say. (c) The day that this event happened was my friend’s birthday and we celebrated it with LUNCH!

Hence, it goes like this:

Like a for mentioned, it was my friends birthday and she invited me, Jelly, A mordecai and some others. Me, mordecai and Jelly had a very coincidental and bad history, so when it came to lunch it sort of went like this:

Mordecai: Oh jelly, it looked like you got paler (which here in our country is a good thing)

Jelly: Oh. Probably not. Maybe it’s the lighting.
Mordecai: Nonesene! Oh kylie you got tanner (Which here in our country is a BAD thing)
Me: oh thanks (note the sarcasm)
Mordecai: I was joking, actually you got paler.

That actually was annoying and awkward because I still feel like I have to be invisible around mordecai.

And when we were about to leave the restaurant, My ex crush showed up! Lets name him FireFox. Hence I was quite a mixture of emotions you see, of hatred, anger, surprise and a little bit of adoration.

Here’s a glimpse of what happened

FireFox: oh hey kylie, you done with the table *genuinely smile*
Me:Oh yeah sure *smiles  awkwardly*
Firefox: Oh thanks.

DEAD SILENCE

Number 3- 7^th graders

So last Friday, I was at a student council meeting and it was my first time meeting the people on the student council, because im still new.

Long story short, I was stuck beside the 7^th grade representative, he’s what you’d call that kid who never talks, He’s a little nerdy, lets name him AppleBottoms.

As I was getting my papers from the principal, I decided to actually talk to him, cause he seemed nice. But then, it got all freaky.

I said “Its actually scary to get this much responsibility right?” And you know what he did?! He stared at me like ive committed a crime! For christ’s sake! DON’T STARE AT SOME ONE LIKE SHE’S A MURDERER, WHEN SHE’S JUST BEING FRIENDLY.

Of course, I had to get away from him because of this and seriously it still bothered me somehow.

Number 2- Kafir accusations

Btw kafir means Infidel in Arabic (which I learned in an abundance of katherines by John green) and I have this friend who I always call either Kafir Or undecided, cause it just suited him.

His name popped up into a conversation me and my teacher were having and it went something like this

Me: What about my friend, Rrrrrico (aka undecided or kafir) is he doing well in math.  

teacher: yeah he’s doing good. why’d you ask? You like him?

me: omg sir, no of course not. He’s kind of still trying to figure himself out.

teacher: I don’t believe you

me: ask him for yourself.

Then later on, I saw kafir, talking to my teacher, and I waved at him and my teacher pointed at me, and I raised two thumbs up and shouted “HE’S UNDECIDED SIR! HE DOESN’T KNOW YET” and strutted down to choir practice.

Only to discover later that when i said that, my teacher asked kafir if he was my ex boyfriend, and I have not been ever more terrified in my entire life, this was truly one of the most awkward schemes of my life that backfired, HARD.

AND NOW HE THINKS I HAVE A HISTORY WITH KAFIR! FOR ALL OF THE BOYS HE CHOOSED KAFIR!

Oh and point of information, this scene happened on the same day, when number 4 happened. it was just a day of bawling awkwardness to be honest.

Number 1- Fitting room mayhem

DUN, DUN, DUN!! THIS IS THE MOST HILARIOUSLY AWKWARD SITUATION  IVE BEEN IN WHICH PROVES THAT IM NOT A SOCIALLY ATTRACTIVE PERSON.

Before you read it, you should know that one habit of my friends are deserting me and running. And just ditching me for no reason at all. Just to mess with me.

So this scene happened in 6^th grade, everyday me and my friends would go to this shop after class, right across from our school to look at accessories and clothes like the typical teen (I know strange right? Where did that vanish into?? )

Anyway one day when I was  looking at some stuff across the fitting room, which were 2 large cubicles, when out of nowhere, they just disappeared.

I thought they’d hide in the fitting room, the ladies of course, so I decided to pull the fitting room curtain and then BOOM-

They weren’t there, but NOOOOOO instead some one else was there, a stranger, naked, fitting clothes on. I Figured out that they were hiding behind some rack of clothes which Infuriated me.

The woman screamed of course and security and the manager came to escort me/us out and they said and I quote “This is not a playground kid.”

I was beyond embarrassed and super ashamed and it all felt kind of awkward. So hopefully you can navigate your way through awkwardness now that youve completed the first step: Listen to other stories! 

-*-

Aaaaaaaaaanddddddddd CUT!

Sorry if it was a crapy survival guide, but atleast you’d feel good about yourself now! They say the pain of others can inflict joy to other people

Here are some random pictures from my fandoms!
