When in Belgium, when I was sixteen, I went to give a talk (I was an exchange student) in French to the local Rotary club. It also happened to be my birthday. They found out and of course, sang me happy birthday before I spoke.
In my little speech, I thanked them for wishing me a happy birthday and wanted to say that after a year abroad, I felt older and more mature. I used the incorrect word, telling them instead I was pregnant (and more mature.)
