with a red bump the size of a taillight on my nose.Since i worried constantly about my appearance anyway,acne outbreaks could turn me into a crying,screaming maniac.Plastering on a layer of(at the time)orange-colored Clearasil,which didnt fool anybody,I would slink into school,hoping that the boy i had a crush on would be absent that day.within the last few years,howerer,treatments for acne have improved.Now,skin doctors prescribe special drugs that clear up small pimples almost immediately.An acne attack could shatter whatever amount of self-esteem I had managed to build up.,2/10,in addition to fighting acne,I felt compelled to fight my family.As a teenager,I needed to be independant.At that time,the most important thing in life was to be close to my friends and to try out new,more adult experience.Unfortunately,my family seemed to get in the way.My little brother,for instance,turned into my enemy.we are close now,though.In fact,Eddie recently painted my new apartment for me.Eddie used to barge into my room,listen to my phone conversations,and read my secret letters.I would threaten to tie him up and leave him in a garbage dumpster.He would scream,my mother would yell,and all hell would break loose.,3/10,sulking is one way to deal with disappointment.This attitude“why does everything always happen to me”is common because it is ease to adopt,but it is not productive.Everyone has had the experience of meeting people who specialize in feeling sorry for themselves.A sulky manner will often discourage other from wanting to lend support,and it prevent the sulker from making positive moves toward self-help.It becomes easier just to sit back and sulk.Unfortunately,feeling sorry for oneself does nothing to lessen the pain of disappointment.It may,in fact,increase the pain.It certainly does not make future disappointment easier to bear.,4/10,support,A positive way to handle disappointment is to try to understand the reasons behind the disappointment.An analysis of the cause of disappointment can have an excellent chance of producing desirable results.Often understanding alone can help alleviate the pain of disappointment and can help prevent future disappointments.also,it is wise to try to remember that would would be ideal is not necessarily what is reasonable to expect in any given situation.The ability to look disappointment squarely in the face and then go on from there is the first step on the road back.,5/10,good support,the positive way to react to disappointment is to use it as a chance for growth.This isnt easy,but it is the only useful way to deal with an inevitable part of life.Helen,the woman who was not promoted,could have handled her disappointment by looking at other options.If her boss doesnt recognize her talent and hard work,perhaps she would transfer to another department.or she could ask the boss how to improve her performance so that she would be a shoo-in for the next promotion.Jamal,the boy who didnt get into college of his choice,should look into other schools.Going to another college may encourage him to be his own person,step out of his brothers shadow,and realize that being turned down by one college isnt a final judgment on his ability or potential.Rather than escape into drugs,Carla could improve her basketball skills for a year or pick up another sport,.,6/10,coherence,Television makers viewers passive.Children who have an electronic baby-sitter spend most of their waking hours in a semiconscious state.Older viewers watch tennis matches and basketball games with none of the excitement of being in the stands.even if children are watching Sesame Street or Barney&Friends,they are being educated passively.The child actors are going on nature walks,building crafts projects,playing with animals,and participating in games,but the little viewers are simply watching.Older viewers watch guests discuss issues with Oprah Winfrey,but no one will turn to the home viewers to ask their opinion.,7/10,television discourages communication.Families watching tv do very little talking except for brief exchange during commercials.If Uncle Bernie or the next-door neighbors drop in for a visit,the most comfortable activity for everyone may be not conversation but watching ESPN.The family may not even watching the same set;instead,in some households,all the family members head for their own rooms to watch their own sets.At dinner,plates are plopped on the coffee table in front of the set,and meal is wolfed down during NBC Nightly News.During commercials,the only communication a family has all night may consist of questions like Do we have any popcorn?and Where is the tv guide?,8/10,sentence skills,Revenge is one of those things that everyone enjoy.People dont like to talk about it,though.Just the same,there is nothing more attempting,more satisfying,or with the reward of a bit of revenge.The purpose is not to harm your victims.But to let them know that you are upset about something they are doing.Careful plotting can provide you with relief from bothersom coworkers,gossiping friends,or nagging family members.,.Later if you feel guilty about your actions you can call each person anonymously and tell them how the get the car running.,9/10,10/10,
