Most embarrassing/crazy story you are a part of: 
I don't really get embarrassed. and there are lot of crazy stories but one quick one that I can't really believed I lived trough is: I was on a canoe trip with my brother and  a bunch of our friends, the last day we had heard it was supposed to rain so we packed up early an started paddling out. There was 3 of us in our canoe my brother and I were paddling and one of our friends was along for the ride in the middle. When we are about half way across the lake it starts to pour rain. My brother then calls out to me and asks me to turn around. When I do I see that our friend in the middle has all of her hair standing on end as if she had just rubbed a balloon on it. He then say PADDLE!!! I am still in awe that lightening did not hit our boat that day with the amount of static electricity that was in the air.
