Freshman year of college is a time of personal growth, new adventures and some of the most embarrassing moments of your life. The Daily Reveille asked freshmen about their most fail-worthy moments of the past school year:
Madison Bologna, civil engineering
I was in my physics class and it was the day before formal, and I was really excited to be done with classes for the day, so I was the first one out. I was walking and my ankle rolled and I fell into this little pothole and cut up my knee. My whole physics class saw me, Everyone in the school saw me, it felt like, because it’s a highly-trafficked area. When I was on the ground, I looked up and there was a car waiting to turn into the parking lot and it had to wait for me to get up off the ground, so he saw me fall … so I had to quickly get up and it was really embarrassing. And my knee was all bloody and gross.

The most embarrassing moment of my freshman year was the first time I ever went out in college. Me and all my friends were walking to our sorority house and I started running on the gravel road, and I tripped and fell on all fours in front of an entire fraternity pledge class. I still have a scar to this day.

When I was coming to LSU in August — I’m originally from Los Angeles — we were on the plane at LAX. the plane was about to take of, like, the wheels hadn’t even lifted off yet. For some weird reason I just started vomiting on myself and the people next to me. It got so bad that they had to ask the people in the back of the plane to [move] so I could lay down for the entire flight and deal with whatever sickness I had. I spent a 3-4 hour plane ride in the back of a plane just vomiting. I didn’t even make it to college. My mom told me, “Aw, honey. it’s your first ever college sick story and it’s not even for a fun reason.”
