So you guys know how all my classes are online now? Well it finally happened- I did that cliché, dumb online classes thing where I left my mic on without realizing it and said something kind of embarrassing in the background 🙃
I don’t care that much since it’s my last semester and I’ll probably (hopefully) never see any of these people again after this semester but I’m still going to be extremely careful from now on. Life goes on I guess? Aren’t online classes just super great though?
On a lighter note one of my professors told me my write-up this week was “quite good” which I know doesn’t sound like a big deal but it kind of is. He is super nice and sweet but he’s also a very strict marker and I’ve had him for multiple courses and I’m pretty sure this is the first time he’s said this about something I wrote! I’m like genuinely happy and now I want to work even harder on next weeks!
Hope you enjoyed that recap of how my day went- it was weird to say the least.

It happens, I remember a similar incident that happened to me. A few years later it was brought up at a party and ended up being a great ice breaker. Stay humble, we’re only human.
Yeah it definitely happens- hopefully I’ll be able to laugh about this at some point!
Thankfully, it hasn’t happened to me. One of my course mates mistakenly exposed herself during an online class
Oh no that’s terrible but these things do happen. Glad you haven’t had such an incident!
Once in class I left open mic and saying sth about teacher and once I left cam on mistakenly that’s all so embarrassing 😂😂 when ever it hit a big wave of regret and shame 😥 post relatable!
Welcome to the club! 🙈
Lol 😂😂
Ah yes, in online class is definitely something that I wouldn’t say that the majority of us students had enough time to prepare for. Before the lockdown I had already taken 3 online classes and feel that really helped me, although I along with many other students didn’t expect to take all classes online within the next few semesters.
I’m glad you had some practice. It’s really difficult for the first time. I did online classes the first time last semester and it was a bit tricky.
I was laughing while reading this because it reminded me of my own online class blunder. With me embarrassment doesn’t even come close to describing how mortifying the whole experience was that day…🤭🤦🏾♀️😔🤣🤣
It can really be super embarrassing lolll!
😄
😊
A friend of mine was talking to me about a boy and our mics were on. The whole class heard the conversation but luckily they don’t know who the guy is😩😂
Oh no I’m so glad they don’t know who the guy is!!
Me too😩
My nightmare!
Most peoples I think!
Hahaha, I could imagine what you went through
It was so embarrassing lol!
I can relate :p
Also, you can also check out my blog if you wish 🙂
Thanks!
Ever since I started working remotely, I’ve been extra careful when I’m a meeting or close to entering one. A colleague once jumped on a group call without his shirt on and everyone could see 😵
The expression on everyone’s face was enough to scare me for a lifetime 🤣
Lolll be VERY careful haha!!
I have tourettes where I tic when I’m excited nervous… I make loud hiccup sounding noises, just 1 now and again. I was in a lecture of 400 people and the lecturer kept asking if there was a bird in the room….everyone was looking at me an laughing. Luckily I was confident enough to take it. This happened every lecture for a month!
Oh no that’s awful lol glad you didn’t let it bug you!
Wait, so what did you say that was so embarrassing? I need to know LOL
Lol I’m going to keep my silly mouth shut about that!!
You sound interesting…
Thanks…
I once left the mic on in a office zoom meeting and started chatting with my college friend about how silly my office people were 🥵🥵🥵🥵
OH NO!!! If it makes you feel better you are definitely not alone!
Well, fortunately or perhaps unfortunately..I have never had online classes. Sound interesting.
Congrats on that write up and all the best in the upcoming one!
Thank you so much and yes fortunately I think- online classes can be a bit tricky sometimes.
In my university, I was praying prank on my classmate by hiding her note book when she was not paying attention. I was careful to not let my friend notice but forgot we also have a professor in the class. He caught me up and said something funny about me and whole class was laughing at me by the end. Itz awkward but the prof was a good one…
Oh no that’s super awkward but if it makes you feel better most people forget about stuff like this so hopefully your classmates don’t remember.
Thank You @ PoojaG . It is awkward at that time but right now it is a sweet memory 🤗☺
Glad it’s a good memory now!
I haven’t had these sort of experience but I remember going mad over my family. There are kids crying in the background. People fighting I mean I used to be scared to unmute myself thank god online classes will end soon and your posts are so well 💕
If I lived with my parents that would definitely be me too lol!
Oh boy, that happened to me too. The most embarrassing part is that I sang!
Well I’m done with university. But the other day my daughter walked in on me having a virtual meeting and announced that she was going to take a poop. Fun times!
Well… that’s one way to get everyone’s attention!
Haha yeah buttrue😂❤️
Haha thanks 😊
Had my identity stolen entering an insecure chat room, and lost EVERYTHING. Here I am, already an educator, and far too old to be so naïve, but…TADA! So I guess it’s true, you’re never too old to learn! On the subject of emails and “reply to all” very few of us have NOT had to live through that. Chin up, this too shall pass! Hugs! 😉
Oh wow I’m so sorry to hear that. You’re right- we all make these mistakes we just have to move on with our lives.
Yay! She’s back!!! Great to hear/see you again! I have had mostly dogs barking in the background when I’m on a zoom parent meeting. Either that or children fighting. Let’s just say it “Mother of the Year!!!”
So nice to see you here again!!
Haha you really are doing a wonderful job- that’s quite normal for Zoom meetings!
