Class presentation gone wrong

Date: 10/28/2018

In broadcasting class we were given this assignment to lip sync to any song we wanted. I thought it would be easy so I didn’t prepare. On the day of the assignment I saw some other good lip syncing from my classmates. As I watched, I was hungry so I got out this mini meal even though lunch was half an hour ago. I got yogurt and this pink drink in a clear plastic cup. I don’t know what the flavor was. I think I scooped the yogurt on a napkin on the table. When everything was ready, I thought “watch, it’ll be my turn next and I won’t be able to eat this.” Sure enough, I was right. My ex said something to me. And it was weird because he sat right next to me which is where my guy friend sits in real life. I got up and was worried about the food. I hope it didn’t spill or that the guy sitting next to me wouldn’t spill it. Also I took forever to get up and go to the front of the room that the song was already 30 seconds into it. That threw me off. And suddenly I forgot the lyrics to the Taylor swift song I was lip syncing to. I think the song was “You belong with me” but I don’t remember. My hair was down so I had to keep wiping it out of my face. I tried to dance but I hadn’t made any choreography. This one part I made myself look like I was crying and being over dramatic to match the Taylor swift lyrics. After that I didn’t know what to do. So I jumped in the air like an idiot. Now that I remember that, it feels parallel to this one time in third grade where we had to dance to a random song the gym teacher picked and my hair was in my face so I jumped around trying to get it out. When I finished I went to my seat and everyone was quiet which I didn’t pay attention to in the dream. My ex said it wasn’t mopey enough for Taylor swift but that otherwise it was fine.
