All of us have those moments where something is happening, but it is so terrifying. What about you?

I was in 3rd grade, minding my own business when we were called into a hard lockdown. It was not a drill. I was hiding under a desk for an hour. The reason why we were in lockdown? Someone robbed a bank and tried to get into our school. Thankfully, nobody got hurt.

Almost getting busted for possession when I went through Japanese customs. I had some OTC Benadryl. I had no idea that diphenhydramine was illegal. I was in a stereotypically small, hot room. Alone. For three hours. Thinking about spending 10 years in a foreign prison. It seems funny now. I mean, come on! Benadryl? But I was very very frightened.

I had to write an apology letter to, get this, the EMPEROR OF JAPAN. Thank god they let me write it in English, as my written Japanese was non-existent.

Wow, imagine writing to someone in power as an apology. Me? I've written to my governor many different times. For a project.

I was riding my bike alone in my neighborhood, a normal thing for me to do. So there is a new neighborhood being built that connects to mine, it a great place to bike because there is a sidewalk and the roads are really smooth. Some of the houses are done, but most of them are still being built. So I am riding through this neighborhood, and there are 3 guys working on a house, normal. I am an anxious person and make sure to always keep an eye out. I see that as soon as the guys, who are middle aged, adult men see me, one of them pulls out his phone and it really seems like he was taking pictures of me. The other two guys were looking at me in a weird way too. It was so terrifying because it is so gross and disturbing that adult men see young girls like that ( I'm non-binary, but I looked very feminine)
