I have this weird habit that not many people know about. Its my defense mechanism. I tend to appear hard headed and even the most tragically affected events do not get to me. That is, on the outside. Inside, I become a child crying over a lost puppy.
The hard headed nature of mine comes with an uncanny ability to make fun of everything so that even the most traumatic of events can be changed into something funny. Take my knight for an example. The same knight with the shining armour who was supposed to take me along with him on his ride around the world accidently forgot to take me. When he left, (after crying over it for around 100 days) I managed to visualise the horse turn into an ass and him into an elf. Though the elf (especially the height) has no resemblance whatsoever to my knight, its MY imagination and I am allowed to conjure up anything and stretch my creativity to no limits.
This worked. The tears were gone. I laughed.
In life till now, this has always worked except just once. Picture this.. Standing in the middle of a hallway, I got into a huge heated argument with a guy. The argument turned into a big fight and I was very close to landing some punches. Then, my sense of humour took over and imagined us going on a date!!! I couldnt control myself and laughed out loud while the guy started crying..
To calm him down, I actually had to go on a date with him and pay for dinner as well.
