Laughter is the great equalizer, it's a common bond builder, and separation doesn't exist when you are all in joy laughing together. This builds team and social moral greatly.
Now here's a thought…Embarrassment is a personal folly. Never be concerned about embarrassment as it is purely a personal reaction to stimuli of the environment.
Take for example any embarrassing moment you may find yourself in. It's only you who are concerned about you; everyone
else is thinking "wow I would be so embarrassed if that was me". They are concerned solely about themselves and how they would be
affected by being in that situation. So their focus is on themselves not you.
Remember the great words of Dr Zeus, "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those that mind - don't matter, and those that matter - don't mind"
Nervousness comes about because in tension you stop breathing fully, taking 3 slow deep breathes in any nervous or embarrassing situation reduces the emotion greatly.
So take a deep breath and laugh it off, because at the end of the day, it will make a great story!
