Some of people´s most embarassing moments are when they fall in front of others

As the school year comes to end, it's only right to take a look back and reflect on what has happened over the course of eight months.

Yes, Sacred Heart has hosted an array of events, including; a dedication ceremony and a successful woman's image conference. But how was the year for the people who make up the university, the students?

Chances are every student at Sacred Heart dealt with the ups and downs of college. The new people you meet, parties, making deans list on one hand. "All nighters", the professors who seemed to make no sense at all, and getting none of the classes you wanted on the other.

Everyone has experienced these in one way or another. Another thing that every student can relate to is the most embarrassing moment.

So as we reflect on this past school year, why not reflect on SHU student's most embarrassing moment of the 2004-2005 school year.

"My most embarrassing moment at school this year was one Saturday morning my friends and I were walking down the hill to go to FLIK for breakfast. There was a huge tour group at the top of the hill, so my friends and I walked in the road to go around them. After we passed them we went to get back on the curb and as I stepped up my foot slipped and I totally fell in front of the entire tour group. It was quite embarrassing," Diana Smith, junior, Elmont, NY.

Losing ones balance seemed to be everyone's problem at some time or another.

"It was raining, not pouring and the people in the car were letting me go before they drove past on the cross walk. I was trying to hurry and I lost my flip flop in the cross walk. I had to go back and retrieve while the people in the car just stared at me. I could feel myself getting red," Lauren Williams, junior, Monroe.

Luckily for Williams she wasn't the only person to experience the wrath of the elements.

"This is pretty embarrassing. It was snowy out. As I was walking into the building I started to slip on the ice. There were a bunch of people outside too that saw everything. But luckily I didn't fall down completely," Kristin Lewis, junior, Trumbull.

No matter how long you have been going to a certain school there is always a hint of first day jitters. No one wants to be late for the first day of classes, or worse go to the wrong class.
