Rukavina- Assignment 21

 An obstacle I have faced is my inability to not laugh in serious situations. This may sound like a joke, but you try laughing when your mom is yelling at you. It’s not very fun. This also applies to any sad situation or anytime laughing probably isn’t the best reaction. I think I developed this habit when I was little and my older sister would start crying and yelling, and being the good sister I was, I found it hysterical. I mean watching my 15 year old sister throw a fit over where she could drive to was like SNL to my 5 year old self. Anyway, I believe that through her excess amount of teenage drama I conditioned myself to laugh when people get mad. I was able to overcome this challenge by practicing composing myself in serious situations. So I now, after 17 years, am able to maintain a mature stance, so the annoyed person does not turn to me when I start laughing at them.
