gumball face

You know those lovely encounters you have with people, the ones where you're going one way and they're going the opposite way. In your head you're thinking she's going to move, I mean I'm obviously walking here and she is totally going to move, not me I'm not moving. And she's thinking, she's going to move, there is no way she's going to make me move, she's for sure moving. Then surprise surprise neither of you move and you are within an awkward distance of each others faces. You both apologize and step in the same direction again. Then you think hmmm I'll go left this time, well guess what she goes the same way. You then both give a can we please just walk around each other/you're really bugging me laugh and somehow do manage to walk around each other.

Good, I'm glad you have all experienced that. Now do you want to know what makes it even worse? The other person is a dangerously attractive man and you look like a yellow gumball because you just got your wisdom teeth out. Guess what, no one even likes the yellow gumballs. Yup, welcome to my life. So the next time you run into this little awkward moment you can think of me and my face the size of a bowling ball and not feel so bad about your predicament. 

love, Sholanda.
