| [slm] Okay I was totally inspired by sr. Trustworthy...and I think we should have a thread on embarrassing moments. I know we've all had them...don't be shy now :) Here's one (and I have plenty more): So this was in university, I was going insane with the work load of Hell Week (the week of midterms+term papers). And during this time, I bumped into a friend of mine on campus. So she says, "Sarah, Sarah...wait up. I want to introduce you to a friend of mine. Sarah this is Anastasia. Anastasia this is Sarah.." I look at the friend, stick my hand out and say... "Hi, I'm Anastasia." HAHAHAHAHAHA. The poor girl tried to hold it, but she just started laughing and goes "Okay then, I guess that would make me Sarah." So embarrassing :( Wasalaam. |

| [slm] I thought we had a thread on this a long time ago? ??? Once I remember I went to a fast food drive thru. I paid them and drove off without getting the food I ordered. I drove back and went in. There were about 10 employees there and they looked at me and one said, oh your the guy that did the drive by. :D |

| [slm] What's this "Embarrassing" you talk about? 'tis really alien to me. Is it something related to sushi ??? :P Well on a real note, At the MCA there are a whole bunch of hallways. I was walking fast down one, one day, and when I reached an intersection almost barged into a bunch of sisters. They emmited these squeals and these alien sounds that they typically emit. Heh atleast it's not as bad as one bro I know who actually did barge into one. Or rather I suspect he did. I was right behind the guy and then next thing I know he was walking away fast past a doorway, and at the doorway there was this Sister open mouthed in shock, and a few others giggling. I was like ??? Whats goin on. Sabri's had more embarassing experiences though [] |

| [slm] Okay...you're right...I just had deja vu, we've done this before. But it's fun anyway. Here's one that happened yesterday: My cellphone rings, and the name of the person who is calling me comes up. Good friend. So I answer the phone screaming. "OMG OMG OMG" or something. Well turns out it was my friend's father, wanting to speak to my dad. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EMBARRASSING. Wasalaam. |

| [slm] But Muslimah, the concept of pink for girls and blue for boys does not hold true for desi's. I took my daughter to India last year, she was 10 months old at the time. There I was sitting on the porch swing, with my little girl (who was incidentally dressed head to toe in pink), the child was wearing a dress btw. Along comes a neighbour and tells me, 'you have a beautfiul baby [i]boy[/i] :o What's [i]his[/i] name...??? To which I reply (with a straight face), Fatima Az-Zohra.... The neighbour told me to go and get Fatima's ears pierced so people would know she was a girl!!! Tis a desi quirk. ;) Wassalaam |

| [slm] brothers and sisters, this is ONE of my MANY embarrassing moments; at school yrs ago i was walking in the middle of the school basketball courts with my two friends during lunchtime, so the whole school was witness next thing u know, my two friends start squealing (as the brother pointed out females do ;)) and i ask 'what, what??' they replied: 'u have this HUGE bird dropping on the back of your hijab' i ran to the sick bay and took off my hijab in the privacy of the room...true enough a huge green/white gunk was on the back of my hijab i washed it off and at the end of lunch went back to class i was sooo embarrassed! |

| [slm] This WOULD have been the most embarrassing moment of my recent years if it weren't for something--- I think it was a gift from Allah, that stopped me. The president of the board that runs my work was there, and I was coming down the stairs and glanced outside and saw his new car parked out there. I was ABOUT to say to my friend-from a distance so would have been pretty loud "Hey, so-and-so (his last name with no Mr or anything) got a new C5". I got to the bottom of tha stairs and there he was. I don't know what it was that stopped me from saying it, but I always thank Allah for not having put me through that! However I have plenty of other embarrassing moments on a daily basis, like the time my really chique neighbor stopped to chat while I was basically wiping off my whole car, which was very dirty, with like 4 or 5 peices of kleenex. ::) Next time she saw me I was cleaning the trash from inside my car (it gets pretty messy because of Abdullah) Ok I think I've said enough |
