This happened at work a few years ago. I was on a lift, and a man got on that I didn’t know. He asked, “How are you?” I answered, “Pretty good.” Then he asked, “What’s new?” and I said, “Nothing much.” Finally, he turned and said, “Do you mind?” He was on his cellphone! Fortunately, the door opened and I got off.

I love singing. One time, a few years ago, I was singing in the shower when my sister came into the bathroom and recorded me! Later, we were driving, and my sister put on some music. Suddenly, she started to laugh. It was me! I was really embarrassed (尴尬的) and turned bright red.

When I was in middle school, I bought this cool new sweater. I wore it to a school dance the next evening, and everyone laughed at me when I came in. The sweater was inside out! So I went into the restroom to change and came back out. Unfortunately, it was now on backwards!

My friend’s parents had a birthday party for her at their new house last year. They had these glass doors that went out to the backyard. We were all outside, and I had to use the restroom. So I was running to the house and then —BAM! I was really confused (糊涂的) for a minute. I thought the glass doors were open, but they were closed! To my surprise, I wasn’t hurt at all.
