I was just wondering what everybodies most nerve racking moments are....

I have been nervous all week... First I had to ask this guy out, and then I had an audition today and that really got the adrenaline pumping... :p
 
You know what I'm going to say, atari, so I'm not going to share it with TZ (no offense, you guys! ^_^).
 
Um there have been a lot...getting my heart broken twice and having two girls I liked stolen by the same guy, getting cut from the football team in middle school pissed me off everyday until the day I made the HS team then I finally let it go :p...then I lost this girl who I was convinced, at one point in time, was the love of my life, finally over her now. Recently...just having a lot of schoolwork...and um getting the nerve to tell this certain chick how much I liked her :rolleyes: ....but everything has, for once, been turning out ok I think. :)

In that case, I will not tell it about it eaither, it is a long story and that I don't have the time eaither.
 
I always used to feel really nervous at the beginning of a xc race, with everybody on the line right before the gun was shot.

When I liked a girl, any time I was around her I'd feel nervous.

^^ those were in high school, I don't care enough to be nervous any more
 
I'm always stewing in my nerves the moments before I have to do something like public speaking or perform in front of a crowd.
 
Definately the time I decided to tell a very special woman that I loved her. The thought of saying it had been bouncing around in my head for a couple of days, and I finally decided to let the cat out of the bag. As soon as I said it, I likely turned ghost-white, and I started chewing on my thumbnail (which I never do). I was like that until I got my response. Most nervous I've ever been! But it definately paid off. :)
 
Whenever my father talks to me, and when I have to be in front of an audience. I hate doing speeches. I once dropped my notecards during a speech....ugh!

A certain staff member at school on many afternoons bothers me with the same nonsense. Another situation, which has happened more recently, is my mother taking sides against me in debates.

lol. Yeah, first steps in all scenario's are nerve racking. In the case of changes in friendship they can make you a bag of nerves... okay, they make ne a bag of nerves anyway! :) I don't chew on my nails, but I will probably start fidgeting.... Nerves are horrible yet at the same time exhilarating - especially if things go the right way!

Performing on stage. Yeah that was nerve racking at first, but then you just get with it. One good thing about being lead vocals as well as both rhythm and lead, is you don't have time to get nervous. You're too busy listening to the drums/recalling the next verse/making sure you're keeping crowd eye contact (if there is a crowd ;) )/ preparing for the solo/reading yourself on the wah pedal/kicking in the delay/harmonizing.... you have to stay one step ahead so nerves just get left behind!

Geez. I'd get nervous doing all that OFFstage. :p
 
I'm just about tense all the time. That's why I don't gain any weight.
 
I get tense a lot when playing video games. You know what I mean: You're at a really hard part, you haven't saved for a while, and you really want to get past this. Happens with Final Fantasy a lot.
 
the good thing about nevous moments is in the end what you were nervous about usually turn out. :D :p
 
Every time I walk into my 3rd period intro math class. I get picked on so much in that class. :( Makes me wish I didn't suck at math. Too many lowlifes in that class. :rolleyes:
 
What really gets me nervous is when guys in their 30s to 50s continually ask me out at work. I mean I get shocked and flustered enough when guys my own age ask me out...it is a billion times worse when it is a guy who is old enough to be my father! Some of them honestly did not know I was only 17 (well 18 now... but that has only been for two days), but others didn't seem to care at all! They just say some really lame things like.... " So when do you turn 18 *wink**wink*?". What is really creepy is when these guys approach me when I am outside alone checking the box for the movies, or when I am taking out the trash. There have even been a couple to actually wait around and follow me to my car after work. This situation is always incredibally creepy and I don't know what I can do about it. :(

I also get nervous giving speeches, driving (I wish I could have a personal TAXI service so that I never had to drive again), and I always get neverous right before a major test no matter how hard I studied.

Here's a fun article I wrote on why Ruby and Jade from Sofia The First are good characters.
Okay hear me out, Isn't it kind of crazy how CN never thought about doing a Kids Next Door x Teen Titans OG crossover back in the 2000s? There's five members of Sector V, five titans, and they both have super cool HQs. I'm telling you guys, a TT and KND crossover would've been so epic!
