That Awkward Moment When: Mermaid Edtion!

[Mermaid_Sarina]

OWN IT! BE the Mermaid! How wonderful is it that people recognize you that way? Just think, years from now, people will always remember that Mermaid Girl from university! It's as close to being immortal as we can get!

Haha! Thanks Pearlie! <3 I'm not usually well known so its a little bit of a shock to the system! But I appreciate the encouragement!

[Mermaid_Sarina]

I agree. Kinda cool to be recognised! Definitely need to do a photoshoot or swim at the uni sometime.

Yeah! Thats my plan! I'm trying to think of where I could go, or just start using the uni pool!

TAMW one regrets eating that big bowl of yogurt and strawberries, the night before...
TAMW one considers going to the pool except being held back by the previous night's dessert, and the clouds of silent but deadlies hanging about in the air.
TAMW one checks the yogurt and it does not say, "Lactose Free"

3 tubs of yogurt to go...

[Shimmer Mermaid]

Tamw you're playing "quick story" (you take turns telling a true story with the least amount of words possible. It must fall under a predetermined category) and the category was "my love story"
And you end up saying "I pushed him into an art table when I was 15 and now I'm pregnant...."

[PearlieMae]

Jaffa! I love the love story!

Re: yogurt. Change your name to Mermaid Bubbles. Problem solved.

Haha! Nah. Only one Jaffa in this universe!

I agree, Jaffa! :-)

TAMW you spend around 30 minutes with your friend whining, about pools, because walking in you saw a "No Mermaid Tails" sign. We both agreed that just because some people are stupid and don't understand the hazard of leaving your kid alone with their legs stuck together, doesn't mean they should ruin it for the rest of us. Honestly? Why can't people just take a little while, and make sure their kid CAN swim in a tail, before sending them out to play in the deep end ALONE. (Ugh see here I go ranting again! XD )

Requested by Sakutama:
TAMW, you shimmy and wriggle your giant fluke off the pool floor to get into position for a bubble ring, only to have water rush up your nose because you forgot your nose plug.

[Shimmer Mermaid]

I saw your video on instagram! It was adorable, but I'm sorry about the water in your nose!

Haha thanks. Yeah after the initial "ow I got water up my nose" we had to search for the sinus savers because they fell in the pool and they're clear. -.-'

That awkward moment when::

I'm goofing off in the pool with my boyfriend, and he flips me upside down in the water while we are rough housing--and I dont expect it and get a sinus full of pool water and surface like a whale exhaling XD He felt so bad and said he thought I would just block the water since I'm a mermaid and all.
(for the record--I'm AWFUL at keeping water out of my nose).

Don't worry. I'm fine, and I got my revenge on him later

TAMW managers at work take turns sending the entire company little bios about themselves, and the last two managers have admitted an obsession with mermaids, one of them even saying "I live vicariously through mermaids and mermaid performers..." Little do they know....


Hehehehehe.

TAMW when your parent walks in on a pink and purple mermaid in the tub practically screaming along to Miss Jackson because she didn't think they would be home that early... >.<

MISSJACKSON MISSJACKSON MISSJACKSON AREYOUNASTEH!? (yep. I still cringe when I think about it.)

Celeste, you have to casually drop a mermaid photo of yourself on their desks. You must.

And Anna, I feel you so hard on that. Although for me, it's usually me sitting on my bed in my tail writing while listening to rather violent music. Sometimes writing a death scene.

[Mary Marine]

That awkward moment when you're at the pool in just a monofin and a kid asks you if you're a mermaid then why do you have legs...

Internally: OH MY GOD KAREN YOU JUST CAN'T ASK SOMEONE WHY THEY HAVE LEGS

[MermaidSasha]

TAMW you are swimming with your mer-sister in her apartment's pool and suddenly like 10 kids show up and begin to ask you both if you're real mermaids and then spend the next two hours calling you "mermaid" to get your attention. And following you around the entire time O.o

There were some non believers at first but we convinced them by the end of a three hour swim xD

[dfeifer]

...you are probably the only person that has watched this commercial and wondered what this suit is like in the water..

I'd love to try it and terrify random people.
