Introducing our new reporter...

Brittany

Hi, my name is Brittany, but people just call me Brit. I live in Missouri, in the St. Louis area. I am 16 years old. I enjoy playing sports, just about anything. Preferably gymnastics, dancing, and cheerleading. I am very well-rounded, so I can help anyone in just about any area. I love being a girl and doing "chick" stuff (make-up, fashion, boys, the whole nine yards). I like to give advice, on any topic, but I love to give dating advice. Mostly, I just love being a teenager.

I am going to be writing articles on things that you want to talk about. You can write to me care of Cool Nurse. Please send me your stories and I will chose the ones that best fit the topic of the week. You can submit poems, drawings, or photos. E-mail your story to coolnurse@coolnurse.com

My first topic is going to be about your Most Embarrassing Moment, we have all had them. Let's compare and see who really had the most embarrassing. I am also looking for your Worse Date stories, so send them in and we will pick out a bunch and post them on this page. Thanks!

Embarrassing Moments by Brit...

We've all experienced it. Whether we've laughed until we've cried, or turned bright red. You just can't go through life without having experienced an embarrassing moment. I'm sure all the girls have laughed at the Why Me? column they feature in Teen Magazine.

Real life teens send in their most embarrassing stories, and Teen publishes them. Well, for a certain girl and even boy, that moment may have been life wrecking or mortifying. But we just sit back and laugh so hard at something that was humiliating for them. Eventually, we'll all look back on these moments and laugh. Some of us may even laugh at them the moment they happen.

These embarrassing moments will forever flourish in our memories. They're the type of things you never forget, kind of like your best friend, or your first kiss. You may have fallen up the steps at school or had a booker hanging out of your nose while you were talking to your crush. It always seems that when it happens you are the talk of the town, but are somehow forgotten when someone else does something to embarrass themselves. A life saver is what I would call that person. You are suddenly the person everyone knows, but to you, you are the person everyone makes fun of. You are mysteriously saved, and at least one person will always remember what happened, YOU!

As if it's not bad enough to have experienced something embarrassing. Having a really bad date can top the list. Your date might have spilled his soda on your dress. There's nothing like walking around town the rest of the night with a huge brown spot on your brand new dress.

My Bad Date, not, but Embarrassing Moment:

I have yet to have a bad date. It hasn't happened yet. But I do have some embarrassing moments. I remember when I started dating my boyfriend, we weren't quite as close as we are now, so we felt kind of awkward around each other. We were going to a carnival one night. It was one of the carnivals where the whole school is there. He had just parked his car and we began walking. I was wearing these really cute platform sandals, they were kind of uncomfortable. We were getting closer to the carnival and my boyfriend met up with one of his friends. The next thing I know I'm sitting on the sidewalk, scraping rocks off of my legs. I had tripped over a dip in the sidewalk. To make things worse, I had just made a great impression on one of his friends. "Yea, Hi, I'm his klutzy girlfriend." I guess we all need humor in our lives though. ~Brit~

Here are some of the Most Embarrassing Moments that were already sent to Cool Nurse:

My embarrassing moment was when I was in math class and everyone saw that I stuffed my bra because the tissues I used were coming out when I was called to go write some answers on the blackboard. That was really embarrassing! - Annie in Denver.

My boyfriend just got on the net and his own e-mail address. He gave it to me, but I misspelled his addy.... WOW! HUGE mistake. The letter was really mushy saying "I love you and you're the only one for me." Wow, was I surprised when "Laura B." e-mailed me back saying that she loved me too. Apparently, I had e-mailed a girl my love letter... and my phone number. - Kelly, in Delaware

Okay, this is really embarrassing, but here goes... My friend was having a pool party, we have them a lot in Florida. There were about 15 guys there and about 17 girls. I was having my period and was using tampons. We decided to have lunch, so I put shorts on over my bathing suit after I changed my tampon. This guy I really had a crush on was at the party and while he was talking to me and he said "Hey, you have a string hanging out of your shorts." Ugh!!! I was in such a rush that I didn't notice or check it first! - Jen in Orlando, Florida

So, send more! Thanks!
