Freshman year of high school I was walking down the hallway with my freshman backpack on. I bent over to pick up a pencil and the weight of my backpack caused me to stumble and then faceplant. A couple of senior girls ran over to help me up but it was extremely embarassing.

When I was a freshman in high school I was just trying to walk down the stairs with my friend. The stairs at our high school are pretty slick with a thin strip of that black grippy stuff on them. I stepped down like 2 stairs slipped and fell on my butt down like 6 stairs! I ended up with a huge bruise on my thy for like a week!

Okay, so outside our school school there are a BILLION steps to get to the main entrance. They are a struggle I tell you! One day last year I was walking up them when I knew that this boy that had a crush on me (and I had a teeny tiny crush on him) was right behind me. I thought to myself ‘be cool Laura’ and straight away I tripped on the steps and face planted!! Probably the most embarrassing thing ever. Next lesson he was in my class and sent me a note saying ”did you enjoy your fall??? next time I’ll try and catch you ” I managed to laugh it off with him but we both know it was the funniest thing he’d ever seen! I didn’t hurt myself but man it was painful watching everyone’s expression when they saw the fall

For my eighth grade graduation, I was planning on wearing flats. I’m 5’7, so I usually don’t wear heels. My cousin, after some convincing, lent me her 4 inch heels, which were adorable, but they were ridiculously hard to walk in. Plus, she’s a foot size smaller than me, so they hurt like hell. I went to a Catholic school, so the ceremony was held in a church. When my name was called to receive my diploma, I walked up the stairs no problem, but on my way back down I lost my footing, slipped, and landed on my butt in front of roughly 200 teachers, classmates, family, and friends. My principal had to help me back on my feet. For all you clumsy girls out there, marble stairs+4 inch heels=NOT A GOOD COMBINATION!!!

I dislocated my knee cap in the school hallway. Thankfully it went back in place although i did scream. Funny no one noticed…. i guess i just never realized i had the power of invisibility.

I once fell up the stairs, left my file at the top then rolled all the way down them again and also fell to the floor during a fake hair pull in drama in front of my whole year. Let’s just say that I’m used to people laughing at me, I fall over so often!

My most embarrassing falling down story would have to be in my freshman year of high school. My school had a pep rally the day before we were set to leave for Thanksgiving break, hyping us all up for the Thanksgiving football game.

We were divided by grade–freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior–on the bleachers (thick, brown, heavy bleachers) in the gym. It was at the end of the rally that it happened. I was sitting towards the middle of the bleachers and as I was coming down, instead of just stepping onto the bleachers, walking down like stairs, I thought it would be better to step on the middle space between them. Needless to say, it was an epic fail. I got my foot stuck on the bleachers, tripped, and rolled down two or three flights of bleachers before I finally got to the bottom.

None of my fellow peers came to help me, only one teacher. Obviously, I was humiliated and I cried. I missed my bus and had to call my mom for a ride home. Thankfully, by the time we got back from break, everyone had forgotten about it. I had a sore rear end for a few days, but I was able to laugh about it later, which is the most important thing. Although I later became known as “the girl who fell down the bleachers.”

I am a freshman in college now and I still hate bleachers.

When I was about 14, I had a really embarassing fall. I was leaving my Religious Studies class and was messing around with some boys from my class. We were arguing and joking about something (I forget what) when we reached the stairs at the end of the corridor. Now keep in mind the bell had just gone, so every student from that floor of the building was going down those stairs, when one of my friends nudged me. Turning round to jokingly tell him off, I turned back way too fast and lost my footing. I then landed on my butt, and started to stair slide down that whole section of the stairs! By the time I picked my bag up, and assured the teacher who had helped me up I was fine, everyone had seen and my supposed “friends” were doin the worst job of keeping a straight face. But I was fine, well apart from my butt, that ached like mad!
