My Most Embarrassing Moment
Most Embarrassing Moment

I was in 5th grade at Quail Valley Elementary (QVE). Our class was writing reports on animals. I was a stutterer, and had been since I was 3 or 4 years old. I had picked "Sharks" to report on. I knew I would have to read my paper aloud to the class when I turned the paper in to my teacher, Ms. R. Knowing that, I tried to make my paper as short as possible. Ms. R was a new teacher at QVE. Our principal was disabled, and couldn't walk, but she had no problem getting to each new teacher class and checking on the teacher. The principal would roll around to each class with one of the school's new teachers and just sit there on her wheels and watch the class. I had finished my Sharks report and we were sharing our reports. When it comes to my turn, I get up in front of the class, smack on my charm smile, and begin stuttering. Our principal rolls in and starts watching me. I can tell she is about to throw up from watching me stomp my feet and roll my head. Poor Ms. R. What will the Principal think of her now? One of her students can't even read. Unfortunately, my teacher didn't let me sit down. I had to sit there for 30 minutes and [try to] read my paper. I think finally she let me stop, the entire class was probably swimming in my tears by then. That was the most embarassing moment of my life thus

    In fifth grade my teacher gave the class a writing assignment. I don’t remember what it was about but I do remember that I was very good at it. He gave us some time to do this and after we were done writing he asked some of us to come up and read what we wrote to the class. I ended up raising my hand, despite of how shy and nervous I was talking in front of my classmates. I…

    In elementary, I got through assignments by making my projects read like a boring fact book. This way was awesome for a high grade, not so great for writing interesting stories. The first report that I remember writing was in second grade. We had to do a project for history class about a president, complete with a two page report. We had three weeks to complete the project. I chose Thomas Jefferson as my topic. I had my poster made, with a lot of pictures and captions, done within one week of getting the project. My mom took me to the library to do some research on Thomas Jefferson. I found so much stuff. Then I sat down to write. I could not think of anything to put on the paper. The due date got closer and closer. I still had no report to turn in. Finally on the eve of the due date, I sat down and forced myself to begin writing. The day had arrived; I was presenting my project. Our teacher, Mrs. Mullins, called us up alphabetically. My last name is Hensarling, so I had to wait for a while. Finally, after what seemed like forever, it was my turn to present my project. I went to the front of the class and began presenting. Soon I was done. I turned in my poster and report on Thomas Jefferson. A few days later, Mrs. Mullins handed us our grades. I looked at mine and I got a “B”. I had never made less than an “A” before. I took it home and showed my mom. She said, “Oh,…

    Now as I reflect back on what was the negative thing that I can remember about my experience would be during my second grade. The teacher was not very nice and she didn’t believe in extra bathroom breaks. I had asked her during our reading time could I go to the washroom, she told me that no one was allowed to leave her class during reading time because that was the most important part of the day. When she called on me to read I was not prepared because I had not been focusing on the book, and she knew that I was not a very good reader, and I really needed to go to the washroom, well because I could not hold my urine, I ended up going in my pants. That made her mad, and she made me read anyway. I was so embarrassed.…

    Sixth grade, the first year in the new middle school building. It was about the third week into school and a teacher came up to me and asked me to watch over this kid named Justin. (He was different from everyone else, he had a birth-defect.) I said sure, why not, he seems to be nice. He only had one friend, and that one friend I wouldn't say was a good one. Later that week I was called into the disciplinarian's office, her name was Mrs. Landry. She was the seventh grade Social Studies teacher. So wanted me to tell her everything that happened, I didn't what to tell her,…

    I remember this for the reason that it was possibly the most horrific event that came out of my shyness. My friend and I, now 8th graders got to sit on the back of the bus. However, some people on the bus did very horrific activities. One day, a person brought cigarettes onto the back of the bus. I really wanted to alert the principal at the time, but once again, I was too petrified of the repercussions. Instead about a week later, my friend had to do so, which ruined our credibility a great…

    For 3 years I was required to take take speech therapy during the school days because of my speech impediment. At the time I had no clue that only certain students, like me, were required to take this class. I just thought it was a class to sound out funny words and eat snacks, not knowing that I had a speech impediment. While in this class the teacher would make fridays ‘board game day’ and on this day she would pick a leader to instruct the group of how to play. Being the shy child that I was, I resented this day because I was almost always the leader. As the years went on and the end of my time in this class came to a near, I had begun to break out of my shell. On the very last day of this class I was yet again voted as the leader but this time was different because I wanted to lead and let my voice be heard.…

    I raced over by the teachers who were standing in a circle chatting about the activities planned. I ran up to my teacher and blurted out, “Mrs. Bone! I don’t feel good, I think I’m going to…” Without being able to finish my sentence, I was throwing up into my hat. All over. Kids laughed, teachers were shaken and I was disappointed in myself for not keeping my promise of not getting my hat dirty.…
