About National Awkward Moments Day
National Awkward Moments Day is celebrated on March 18th of every year. It's a day to celebrate the awkward and embarrassing moments that are part of our life which happens to everyone.
Awkwardness or embarrassment is defined as an emotional state of intense discomfort with oneself. And if you feel it's just you - it's not, we can resonate with this day. Though most memories of our awkward moments can visit us at any time, March 18th is a great day to revel in them and accept nobody is perfect.
So treat March 18th as a super fun day to celebrate our lack of perfect and to reflect on the fun in life!
