Out of my depthAs a schoolkid, I signed up for a public speaking contest purely as a ruse to meet girls. It haunts me still: in front of 300 people, I started to speak, dried up, stood there for what felt like half an hour staring at the floor and then slowly walked back to my seat. Oh, and the girl I liked laughed.
Have you ever been utterly, completely, devastatingly out of your depth?

dont do drugs (sometimes)i was running around completely hyper off this stuff i couldnt pronounce the name of (dodgy eh?) and about 4 cans of stella. When it suddenly occured to me that the only thing i wanted to do right then was to play battlefield 1942. So i ran up to my friends and shouted "LETS PLAY BATTLEFIELD" then my vision stabilised and i realised i had just shouted that to a bunch of uni students who then looked at me in utter ashtonishment and my mates where in the other direction which meant i had been booning around for 10 minutes right next to these uni students with my mates whatching from a-far in hysterics.
i was totally out of my depth.
