The more you put yourself out there, the more you risk. But August was a grave and I clawed myself out of the comfort of earth so I may be washed by storms and deafened by thunder.

1d. In a classroom setting especially, when you're just trying your best. I don't understand professors these days. Where is the empathy?

1c. Being put on the spot or made to feel stupid for no reason. The uncomfortable air around what just happened, and the embarrassment.
