Embarrassment

What ends up in my junk box...
Okay, I was going to begin this one with a lengthy preamble, but I think I should begin with a long direct quote: Claim of donation fund God Affair donation Good day to you my beloved in the Lord, How is everything going with you and your family? This message might come to you as a surprise, However, It all just my urgent needs for a partner, That made me contact you for this urgent transaction for the Work of God Almighty, My name is Brenda Jeffrey from United States of America, I'm a widow suffering from Breast Cancer and Stroke, which denied me a child as a result, I may not last till next two months according to my doctor report, I'm married to late Pastor William Jeffrey, and we were married for many years without any child before his death, I'm 72 years old woman and I have some funds which I inherited from my late husband the sum of (10.5 Million dollars) which I needed a very honest and God fearing person who will claim the funds from the Bank and use the funds for work of God Affair donation in the house of God Almighty, like propagating the good news of God and to endeavor God worshiping place and help less-privileged I found your profile and I decided to contact you for the donation work of God Affair, Please if you know that you cannot afford to carry out this project by all means in the name of our Lord God as a believer in Christ Jesus please do not respond back to this email, According to my doctor report, I don't need any telephone communication in this regards because of my health condition, The reason why taking this bold decision is because my husband's relatives are not Christians and I don't want my family hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers, I don't want a situation where this Fund will be used in an ungodly manner, I am not afraid of death hence I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord Almighty, Exodus! 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace, I will like you to understand that my contact with you is a divine direction from God Almighty after all my fasting and prayers. God opened my eyes to the book of Ecclesiastes 6,verses 1 & 2.Read this scripture and you will understand that there are many people in this world that God gave the grace to acquire wealth yet God did not give them the grace to enjoy the wealth, I happened to fall into the same category now it is the wish of God When God revealed to me to use my wealth to do his work, I understood that God was testing me like He tested Abraham and other men of God, Abraham needed a child and God asked him to use his only son Isaac for sacrifice, Abraham was faithful and obeyed the Lord Jesus Christ And God made him the father of many nations.

The Alcoholic who Cried Wolf
My name is Kelly and I’m… well I’m not really an alcoholic but I’m here so. There I was sitting in the middle of AA and thinking that I didn’t have a problem. I guess it didn’t sink in yet that if you’re in a mental home, regardless of how you ended up there, you probably have something that you need to work on.

Exposing My Dictionary Search History
I'm sure most writers out there know the Dictionary app. It's a helpful tool with plenty of resources, including a Thesaurus. Recently, I've seen a lot of Dictionary.com slander(/j), especially when it comes to new writers exploring this avenue of advice.

Candice
Candice. When people ask you awkward questions, like, ‘what’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?’, I always know the exact answer I want to give. But I can’t tell it. For one, I’m extremely introverted unless I’ve had at least a couple of red wines. Secondly, I get very embarrassed very easily. And thirdly, it would alter the way that a lot of people see me, who think they know me, very much.

I Got Brutally Knocked Out—And It Was The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me. Second Place in Coming of Age Challenge. Second Place in Identity Challenge. Top Story - September 2021.
When I was twenty years old, I got brutally knocked out in front of my friends and family. Let me take you back to the worst night of my life. The year was June 2016, and I was in the Air Force. I was working an eight-to-five job as a storeman, but my real passion was mixed-martial-arts. I had spent most of my teenage years in a grungy fight gym learning The Way of the Fist, and by the time my twenties rolled around, I was already an accomplished fighter with a record of three wins and no losses. I was an undefeated rising star poised to take the pugilistic world by storm. My confidence was at an all-time high.

Funny story
Today I am going to share a funny story of the time when Josh and I were chased by our neighbourhood dog, Bruno. My best friend Josh and I grew up in a little suburb in Melbourne. We were like two peas in a pod, he was my yin to my yang. Where he was, I was and where I was he was. All our childhood memories were shared together. They were filled with so much warmth, they connected our hearts together. Some memories made us cry, while others made us smile and laugh.

Orange Juice
When I was about 13 or 14 I can't quite remember, My best friend and I lived pretty close together. For the sake of the story we'll call my best friend Freya. Freya and I were shy quiet kids. We hung out with the odd balls, and goofy kids. We didn't quite fit in anywhere else except with each other. It made for a good small group of people and most of us are still friends to this day.

It took little to be more than a robbery
It was one night, I was at a friend's house and the interaction was so good, there was no desire to go home, it got late and the other friends decided to sleep but I couldn't, at the time I lived with my mother and my stepfather and had not fired that he would spend the night away from home.

To The Person I lost My Virginity to...
Hey! I hope that you are doing well. You know it's been like a week since you stopped talking to me. I really don't know why is that because I remember you saying that you will not stop talking to me. Please help me understand is it because you got scared or that you just simply got bored. I thought that you were a good person...

Playdoh Bikini FAIL
Let me tell you the story of when my two besties (Jessica and Chelsea) and I had a sleepover that went embarrassing for Jessica! But, of course, it started like every other sleepover. First, it was convincing my friend Jessica's mom to take us to the store for snacks. We got chips, chocolate, gummies, and of course Slurpee's! Then to our local Blockbuster (note this is 1998) to rent a movie. I wish I could tell you what we rented, but other points of this night are forever stuck in my mind. When we got back to Jessica's house, it was a little too early to start a movie. So, we decided to play truth or dare. No sleepover is legit if you don't play truth or dare. We dared each other to kiss Jessica's younger brother, tell the truth about your current crush, tell a dirty secret, etc. You know moral truth or dare protocols. After a few rounds and some good laughs, we decided to move on. Putting on the latest Back Street Boy cd, we danced around and sang (poorly, I might add). Then our tummy's started to rumble. We left Jessica's room and asked her mom if she could order a pizza for us? I know we could have eaten the junk, but that was for the movies and a snack at 2 am. Jessica's mom said ok and ordered us the pizza. It would be about 30 minutes to arrive. Now what? That's when Chelsea noticed on the kitchen table Jessica's little brother's playdoh set. She suggested we play with the playdoh. So we did.

Can you keep a Secret?
I start my day with wonder in my mind and a sensation of worrying. Will someone blow my cover? Will I have to pretend I’m someone who I am not? Will I have to lie ? Will I have to think of a way out of being accused that I am a homosexual! Starting off with the choice of clothing tells a lot about an individual. My ideal outfit everyday consists of 501 Levi jeans, White t-shirt , Black windbreaker, and Black low cut vans with white crew Nike socks. Although based on what is considered gay, I would love to wear some distressed light blue jeans with a black t-shirt to portray my feminine side. Knowing that I can’t let that side of myself be known willingly I hold back hurting myself deep inside. Going with the grain can be a struggle as if I did not choose to hide my sexuality all through out elementary school, junior high , and highschool here I am dressing as normal as can be to distract any attention brought to me. I quickly get myself together and head out the door to a family gathering.
