After going to a formal pledge line the night before, I stumbled into the dorms still in my black dress, high heels and make-up, reeking of alcohol, at 6:30 in the morning...right before my desk shift. It was...awful. In college, I was an RA in the dorms.

Where's the shame in that? The only time it truly qualifies is when you are truly ashamed of not only your appearance, but also your deeds (or misdeeds) of the night before. For example, I once made the Walk of Shame back to my house from a freshman dorm sporting my Ace Ventura costume from the night before. As I passed by the campus center where they were holding a prospective student open house, I felt shame not only for my outfit, but for the act I had just come from performing. We're our own harshest critics, and even though no one can see that shame, that's what truly makes the walk shameful!

They're just a part of life. I’m not really embarrassed by them, since I don’t think anyone really pays that much attention to what you were wearing the night before. They’re just a part of life.

I smelled of smoke and liquor and my makeup was smeared under my eyes. But who would have thought that the man running for president would be at the diner my friends and I went to that morning?
