It is true what they say about memories "They Are Unforgettable". Some memories leaves us smiling with our heart fluttering while others makes us cringe or embarrassed what we would never wish to relive such memories again.

I have had some embarrassing moments that the mere thought of writing them out is making me more embarrassed. I thought of which to write amongst them,some were cringe worthy and some got me so embarrassed.

One memory that got so embarrassed was a time when I attended a party some years back. Prior to that time, I always love rocking heels. Despite being tall, I still love wearing them.

Despite some people's displeasure about me not contented with my tall height, I still love rocking heels because it gives me a kind of feeling when I walk, I can't really put my finger to it but I knew it made me feel good. Now when I said I wear heels, I didn't mean those ones with "pencil mouth". I only wear wedges because I walk comfortably in them.

Putting on wedges has been working out for me and I kept rocking it. But when you wear people saying "leave your comfort zone, leave your comfort zone", just know that it doesn't always apply to every aspect of your life.

I visited one of my aunts one day and while at her place, I saw a beautiful pairs of stilettos. It has an animal print color and I fell in love with. I have always wanted a shoe with that animal print and I didn't mind that it has a "pencil mouth", in fact the length of inches on this shoe was long but I didn't let that bother me as I begged my aunt to give me the shoe.

She laughed and told me to take it if would fit me. I tried it on and it was a perfect fit so she asked me to take them. I was so happy and I couldn't wait to rock it to a party because it looked like the ones you wear to a party.

So like you guessed, it didn't take long before I had a wedding party to attend. I had my dress made and was looking forward to attending.

On the day of the party, I was dressed with my light makeup and all and wore my high heel shoe. Was I not supposed to wear some flats and take the shoes along with me so I could wear them at the party? No, I thought of how I didn't want to carry any extra "load". I mean, I do hear heels(wedges) before,so how hard could it be? Or so I thought.

I forgot that while those who wears them rocked it effortlessly, one of the factors amongst others that contributed to that was the roads in which they walked on.

From my house, I was lucky enough to get a bike to the bus stop and from the bus stop, I boarded a bus to the bus stop of the venue. All eyes were on me in the bus but I didn't care, I was wearing my earpods and was oblivious to whatever anyone was saying.

When I got to the junction of the venue, I could see the venue not too far from me which made it a walkable distance. Now comes the problem, the road was very "rocky" or should I call it "stony" 😂😂😂 and I thought of removing my heels and walking barefooted but then people were all around and I didn't want to spoil my fine girl, so I started strutting forward like I own the street. "At least Aunty look at where you are going", I didn't o as I tried to walk confidently and before I knew it "gbuuuussshhhhh", I fell almost twisting my ankle and had a slight bruise on my arm.

Suddenly, sounds of laughter erupted from one corner and I saw some group of guys laughing. I was so embarrassed that I don't know if I was to enter the into the ground or just have a power to vanish.

"Heii, aunty sorry o" was thrown my way, while some older women started talking about young ladies and their problems with "slaying".

I just took my heels in my hand and walked away from them with the remaining shred of dignity I had. I only wore the shoes back when I got to the venue. The party was so fun but I couldn't forget what happened and how embarrassed I was.

I never planned on staying for too long but because of what happened, I stayed in the venue till night so that it would be already be a bit dark by the time I am to leave and that way most of the shops would have closes and no one would recognize me as the girl who fell.

It was a good thing this Brother Bernard was not a trend then because that would have pained me more.

I learned my lesson after that day and I only wear the shoe at the venue of any party I was attending before once fallen....

Thank you all for reading.

To be honest, I marvel at how you ladies manage to walk in stilettoes. I admire how they look.

Thank you for having me.

Embarrassing events always embarrass us anew. A very big part of thinking in life is to overcome that time.

It sure does. I am glad I can laugh about it now.

I appreciate your time here.

Leave father Bernard aside, you were lucky those guys were not ticktokers if not your video would be trending on ticktok and FB ☺️☺️

But sorry about the fall

That would have been the worst. I don't even know what I would do if such happens.

Thank you for coming around.

My pleasure 😊

AH! A whole fine girl on the ground. hehe
I would have begged the ground to swallow me whole.

😂😂😂😂 imagine being caught on camera and posted online. I don't even want to imagine it.

The topography of the ground on which the shoe is to be used is very important. I have seen many people that were dealt with by the high heels. It can be embarrassing. At least you learned your lesson against another time.

#dreemerforlife

I sure did learned my lessons.

Thank you for your time here.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I couldn't stop laughing hard. OMG...I could understand how embarrassed you were on that day. In my mind, I was like, "you should have wore a flat shoe or sandals to the place and put the shoe on when you get to the venue. I hate shoes with such mouth. I only go for heels that has square shape that would be flat on the ground when I walk and not those pencil mouth one.

In fact, it's good to rock shoes like this on a smooth ground and not those rocky or sloppy ground, else be prepared to fall except you are one that can carry yourself with it.

As in, it wasn't funny that day o and I learned my lessons. Thank you for coming around.
