embarrassment

thought i would share one of my embarrassment moments with you. it all happened on the first day of uni... and i was going to my lecture for graph theory... its at a new place which I never been before. its sort of off campus, like you have to cross the bridge to get there. but anyway... on with the story...

instead of walking across the bridge, I walked up the stairs on the side of the building, because I was already on that side of the road right... cos if i was at campus, I would just cross the bridge from on the david caro building. anyway, I walked up the stairs thinking I was at level 1 of the building. You would think that cos it didnt seem I walked up a lot of stairs. And I remembered that my lecture theatre was on level 2 of the same building. I walked around... exploring, still thinking it was level 1. I thought I would be smart for once and take the lift instead of walking up the stairs again cos I'm such a lazy bugger.

So I waited for the lift. I went in, and there were 2 people already in there. And I pressed the number '2' and the light appeared. And I was like... good, I don't have to walk up the stairs!! Once i pressed it, I closed the door on the lift, the lighting on the level 2 suddenly disappeared. At that moment I thought to myself... SH*T, was I already on level 2?? couldn't be, cos I looked around already.' when it arrived at level 3, i saw the number flash at 3. So I DID get on at level 2, and I was already at level 2. I was so embarrassed! cos there were people in the lift. and they saw me press number 2. and clearly I was in lvl 2 already. Anyway, I stayed in the lift, and went back down to the level I got onto the lift.

Who is that stupid that you wouldn't take a peak around and look for signs to see what level you were on? I guess... ME!! I'm that stupid! *sigh* luckily no one else saw me got onto the lift besides those two people that were already in the lift. Thank-goodness they weren't students either, they were just construction workers, so I probably won't see them again!!

Thats my story. i'll check in again another time.
