Embarrassing Moments

1. I was talking to my male colleague and he wasn’t looking in to my eyes. A thing I hate because it shows lack of concentration and respect. He takes a glimpse and then moves his eyes away. How rude! I looked at myself in my tiny mirror hidden between my stack of papers only to find a piece of “simsim” stuck in my lipstick at the edge of my lower lip. Since that day, I’ve been checking my looks on a bigger mirror positioned next to my pc screen.


2. I was shopping. I tried a blouse in a shop then moved to another. Only to be greeted with the Lebanese cute salesperson saying “moo minshani, bas minshan el 3alaam, ezrarik maftoo7”. For the first time in my life I felt “el arth eb tibla3ni”. Thank God he was polite.


3. A similar situation happened when shopping but this time it was a lady. She pointed at my skirt and told me that my side zipper was open. Thank God there was a button on top of the zipper.


4. I was resting in my office when a hateful colleague came asking for a document. I leaned to the side to get it for her, only to find myself on the ground. The chair couldn’t hold my side weight. What made the situation worse is that she stood frozen there without a single word or a hand. So I hated her more. My waist hurts whenever I remember this. But I guess I deserve what happened cause till this day “I promised myself not to mention this story but here I am doing it” I remember going to the head master of the school with my sister and aunt. He greeted us and fell on the floor thinking there was a chair behind him. I kept laughing and telling this story to whomever I met. So, now I believe that what goes around, comes around.


This is what came to my mind right now. But there are embarrassing situations that happened to friends like:

1. She was talking in a meeting in a room full of people and her friend was pointing at her mouth all the time she was talking. She had no idea what her friend meant. Only to know after the meeting that she had “taboola” stuck in her front teeth.

Never eat taboola without brushing your teeth afterwards!


2. She was walking in open air when it was windy. Hijab had fallen, head is covered with am6a only. I’ve seen that and it looks ugly. So, never wear am6a and hijab without the use of a pin or a sticker.



Note: I would like to thank Microsoft Office for inventing word spell check. Thank you! Thank you, Thank you!
