Holidays can be stressful. Never fear, I've got a story to make
you laugh.
There are many ways to make a great first
impression. For example, look people in the eye when you speak to them and
stand up straight. This week, I made the WORST first impression of my
life. This is saying something because you know me, if anything can go wrong,
it will.
Lemme give you the details, I had an
interview for my masters program as I graduate with my bachelor's next spring.
The minute I walked in the door, I tripped over the rug. There was nothing
graceful about my fall. It was one of those falls where you face plant.
After making a remarkable entrance, I
decided to whip out my hand sanitizer. Usually I can handle this task with zero
issues but today I was so nervous, I squeezed the bottle and it erupted like
the Old Faithful geyser at Yellowstone. Even crazier, it went in my eye. Lemme
tell you, hand sanitizer in your eye is horrid. At this time, I have a rug burn
on my forehead from the fall and I'm squinting like a pirate due to the
sanitizer.
The lady who interviewed me was so kind, I
think she was mesmerized by all my mishaps. We carried on with the interview. I
had no idea what I said to her questions. I was trying to survive. Plus, I was entranced
by this massive sticky fly trap near the door. This trap had hundreds of dried flies.
Looking back, I should have known to stay away from the fly trap. Oh no, I was
nervous and me and nervousness are not a great combination. Upon standing up to
exit the building, my hair got caught in her massive sticky fly trap.
All I could do at this point was laugh
hard. The dear lady followed suit. She laughed so hard her lungs started to
burn and she coughed. Don't you just hate those days where everything goes wrong?
