This Story Bugs Me!

I was thinking all day about what has embarrassed me but to me embarrassing is something that you are ashamed of and, personally, I have nothing I am really ashamed of. A lot of what has embarrassed me in the moment, I now found funny. Well now that I think about it, I just raised a suppressed memory of mine but that is something I will never ever share and will continue to suppress :’). But honestly, excluding that one instance, if someone created an entire movie based on all my embarrassing moments that happened, I would be fine. I guess I process embarrassment like this because I am a pretty weird person. Thus, if I was immensely embarrassed by everything I did and held onto that, I would drive myself crazy/wouldn’t be able to exist cause I do A LOT of embarrassing things. Buuut enough prefacing, I will now share my embarrassing story!

Last summer, I was with my host sister and her mom in Japan and we were riding our bikes back from a day of surfing at the beach. When a bug flew at me. Now the things about the bugs in Japan is that they are H-U-G-E! They don’t have normal little tree bug beetles or normal sized ugly butterflies, instead they have gigantic beetles where you can make out every little detail of their bodies-- which minds you fly-- and butterflies that are literally the size of your face and can hear the flapping of their ugly wings. And when they hit a window or a door, you can LITCHERALLY hear them do so. SKJBDJKBDO just thinking about it gives me the heepy-jeepies. Anyways, this nasty, ugly, fat bug flew into my face and was trying to crawl on my face while I was riding and I flipped. I lost all consciousness of my surroundings and what was happening and my only goal was getting that ugly creature off of my face. So instinctively, I put my hands to my face and pull the nasty thing off of my face. As I did so, I was screaming my lungs out and my bike drove off the sidewalk and was in the street with a car quickly approaching me. So after I got the bug off my face I started screaming even louder because I was about to slam into a moving car as my host sister and host mom was screaming my name but luckily I was able to move fast enough to pull my bike to the curb, narrowly escaping getting hit. After the experience I was shaking and my host fam was saying “oh my gosh you good?” but meant more like “oh my gosh you are crazy!”.

Moments before disaster

Soooo yeah, that is my embarrassing story, I hope you guys enjoyed :D, I leave you guys with some pics of my little adventures from this week. K, ttyl mes amies!

My niblings created a cute little sign for when I cam to visit them saying happy birthday <3

Aboni's friend sent us bubble tea and many of my friends were so sweet and made my birthday awesome even when it is remote :)))

This tree in our yard was struck like a year or two ago and now it is beginning to break down and in a recent wind storm branches started falling off (now my fam and I are concerned that it will fall on our house)

Found a thicc white tail as we were driving home

My nephew wanted to wear my backpack and he looked so cute, I love kids with bookbags on-- it is my weakness (that and footies)

Bruhhh, I started this show Monday and finished it yesterday (it was only 13 episodes) but it was so good. It is definitely a under-rated show. As you watch the show, you are focused on the plot that is seemingly about fulfilling missions and ending oppression by whatever means necessary be it through coercion or killing. But throughout you become more and more desensitized to the death and heinous tactics that the main character uses, but by the end you realize that the main "plot" of the show was a loss of humanity as you become more and more desensitized by death and people's feelings much like the main character does. It is so beautifully made and left me so shook by the end: 9/10 for me!

Alsooo, I started a new anime today and I am literally simping for this man (the black haired man) so hard and I only have 2 episodes worth of knowledge of him
