I was attending my last class of the semester at UNT. I was in a celebratory mood...ready for Christmas, ready for a week of no classes, ready for a break...

A girl sitting next to me interrupted my happy thoughts and said:

"Are you trying to lose weight?"
"No" (thought-...and why would you ask me this...rude)
"I was just wondering because your drink says, "Slenderize."

I was so embarassed. I had spent five minutes prior searching through the drinks at the cafeteria looking for Vitamin Water (my new favorite drink) and couldn't find it...so I grabbed the next best thing (Fuze)...and I wasn't going for the vitamins at that point, it was about the flavor. Who can resist Cran-rasberry? Little did I know this drink was full of a natural stimulant to get your metabolism jumping. My heart is still pounding though my skin. Sorry baby...truly an honest mistake.

Anyway...I felt like I had been caught smoking or drinking while being pregnant...like I should be wearing the Scarlet letter or something.

Okay, everyone in my class knows I am pregnant and for crying out loud...do pregnant women really think losing weight intentionally is even a possibility? Oh well....she was probably just trying to help...it was a little awkward though.
