It really funny I can't stop laughing

It is actually a midnight here and sleep doesn't seem to come and I was chatting with my friend and here I am laughing at what happened to me last weekend. I was laughing so hard until I checked the time I see that it's 12:30 am. You know that moments when we try a little too hard to impress someone, and things just don’t go the way we expected. The kind of moments where, in hindsight, all you can do is laugh at yourself and hope no one has video footage of it. This one time, I tried so hard to impress my friend that I ended up embarrassing myself to the point where I’m still laughing about it, even when it’s past midnight and I’m lying in bed replaying the entire scene in my head while chatting with her.

It all started on that Saturday afternoon when my friend and I talking about me adding weight, how my perfect tiny waist is no longer tiny again and I told her I've been working out and it's true but not serious with it so we decided to work out together. I had recently downloaded some flat tommy and tiny waist workouts and I've watched a few YouTube videos and felt like I was already a pro without trying. My friend, on the other hand, was already pretty skilled. She always hit the gym with her man and is in a perfect shape and I think, well she could do tricks like it was nothing, and had that cool, effortless vibe about her. So, naturally, I thought, “Hey, I can totally impress her with some crazy moves.”

I mean, how hard could it be, right? I’d practiced a bit, watched the videos, and had the enthusiasm of a kid on Christmas morning. I was ready to show off my brand-new moves, so I rolled up to her, full of confidence, and said, “Watch this!” Big mistake. The universe heard me loud and clear, and it decided it was time for a lesson in humility.

We started with the simple mountain climber exercise, it was so easy that I think everything will be like that. We continue like that not until she did one move that I have never done before but I've watched people doing it, it looks pretty simple not until I took the first move and I suddenly can't feel my leg again, just the pain. I actually don't know what happened and I was shouting that my leg have been dislocated. My friend rushed to my side and that is when she discovered that it was just a cramp, she said it's a muscle pull.

For a moment, all I could hear was the silence and it was followed by the sound of my friend’s stifled laughter. She tried to hold it in, but it was no use—she lost it. And honestly, I couldn’t blame her. I was lying there, looking up at the sky, wondering how in the world I had just turned a simple “look at me” moment into a full-blown disaster.

I got up, trying to play it cool, but it was clear that I was now the “comic relief”. My friend, between bursts of laughter, asked if I was okay. I stood there, looking at her, don't know what to say to her at first but later with all the confidence I could muster said, “Yeah, totally fine. That was just... part of the trick.” Which, of course, made it even worse. She laughed even harder, and I couldn’t help but laugh along with her.

What’s funny now is that, every time I try to do anything remotely impressive around her, I think about that moment. And instead of cringing, I just laugh at myself—because honestly, if you can’t laugh at the times you mess up trying to impress someone, then what’s the point? Sure, I ended up looking ridiculous, but at least I gave her a good story to tell. And sometimes, that’s better than any trick you could pull off.

So, yeah, I learned two valuable lessons that day. One, don’t try to impress someone with skills you don’t actually have. And two, if you do end up failing miserably, make sure you laugh at yourself. Because, honestly, there’s no better way to handle it than to turn your own blunder into a joke. It might not have been the slickest moment of my life, but I’ll definitely be laughing about it for years to come and I think it has already started and I'm very sure she will still be laughing on her bed.

Thanks for checking on my blog and have a wonderful day
