why so serious?

Miv, a friend of mine stated: 'if you're taking this seriously, you should picture you guys being an item'
I was... shocked. What does she mean... by... serious... ?
To be true, I avoid taking anything in my life seriously. Gives me shivers. Jinx. Whatever you may name them. I don't know, I'm a coward when it came to the word 'serious'. Kept hiding from it.
And apparently, the friend who suggest me to get serious with my choices of life, tends to break down every single month. Bleeding openly of her targets which were not fulfilled.
I had my break down. I got bleed. I got scars. At least, by not taking things seriously, I tend to forget those things. Covering it up with a smile, a laughter, another spoken dreams.
This is how I handle my life. Keeping it on the edge of sanity. Handling things with the best way I know, by taking them lightly.
So, Why so serious? Come to me again?
