i danced with atomic kitten

kerry-era kitten came to a school i taught at [lolly to the one down the road] - they played 5 songs [the single twice], did competions and joked aroung to great effect. i was on behaviour patrol at the back when they decided to get some teachers up on the stage - i was skipped to the front by natasha kitten - bubbly, flawless skin, looking the star of the group [the gawky one with the high forehead had the best voice by far]. I always thought i moved well but in my skool gear inc. propah shoes i knew i was doomed to fail. i knew i was there to be laffed at whatever and didnt make too much effort as to avoid too much embaressment - its the only time ive been scared on stage - i felt old, ugly, out of shape compared to the pop kittens who were nailing down those tortuous early-AK dance routines as i stumbled around - their songwriter was sneered at for dancing like a history teacher but no teacher 'gets down' these days - gotta maintain the distance to preserve what little respect there is. i got down from the stage - longest 4 minutes of my life - to mass laughter - i laughed along but i thought - this is it, i am not an eternal 18yr old. i became intensely self-conscious about how i looked and acted - was i trying to be something i wasn't, does it matter. i lost my confidence for a while - esp about clubbing. so i was oversensitive - but it happened that way. FINALLY - my question is - do you have a moment in your past where a small event made you question everything and you changed because of it ?
