like dust in the wind

Ok, so I know embarrassment.

I have fallen in public, many many times, notably this past weekend in a very humiliating fashion. I have done a lot of stupid stuff.

But the point is, you never get used to it, and every time something like that happens, I still can't help but feel like an idiot.

Case and point.

I'm at the library right now, the only place I can really rely on for internet, trying to work a project.

As I was walking down the steps this evening, a strong gust of wind blew past me, through my hair, through the leaves, and lastly, through the stack of papers that were tossed all willy-nilly into my shoulder bag.

That's right. All my papers were tossed about, including my previous tests from advanced grammar which I'm using to study for finals. I had no choice but to go after them.

So, as all of the students in the downstairs lobby watched on, I chased my belongings across the front grassy area on the library, trying to coax my papers back to me.

I tried my best to hold my head up high as I walked through the double doors.

Eh, screw it.
