One of my most embarrassing moments happened during a presentation in college. I was so nervous that I accidentally mixed up my notes with a friend’s, who had a totally different topic. When I started presenting, I realized I was sharing details about how to train a dog instead of discussing my research on environmental sustainability! The entire class burst into laughter, and I turned bright red. To make it worse, I had to quickly pivot and somehow connect it all back to my topic. It ended up becoming a humorous moment, and I learned to always double-check my materials before speaking!
