Awkward Moments Day
Yes, there is a whole day dedicated to embracing your awkward moments in life- National Awkward Moments Day on March 18 every year.
So go ahead, trip over thin air, wave back at someone who wasn’t waving at you, or accidentally call your teacher 'Mom' because it’s your time to shine! Fun fact: This day encourages laughing at yourself because even the most confident people have their cringeworthy moments.
Awkward Moments that Connect Us All
- Remember the time when you waved 'back' at someone who wasn't waving at you?
- Or the time you bid Goodbye to someone and continued walking in the same direction as them?
- Or pulling on a door that's supposed to be pushed?
- Tripping on nothing in public and pretending it didn’t happen.
- Or, starting to talk at the same time as someone else and both of you awkwardly stopping for the other one to continue?
- Accidentally liking a post while stalking
- Getting the lyrics to a song wrong while singing out loud. (Confidence is not always the key)
- Or realizing your fly has been down for god knows how long?
Yes, we've all been there and while we continue living, there's no escape to being clumsy and encountering embarrassing moments so why not just let it be and enjoy regardless?
