    I feel like eating a sandwich.

    No really, I usually don't get my heart set on stuff. On the rare occasion that I do, it usually DOES fall through. And I usually am pretty depressed about it.

    I do what I normally do, either get mad and vent my anger at something or find the person responsible for my falure (if it's not me) then give him a piece of my fist.

    I pout in my head and feel extremely upset and hate myself for about 10-20 minutes, then I just get over it.

    I brood for while but eventually get over it, though it will in some way haunt me always.

    Also hanging out at an IHOP works also. Best health club ever.

    For me, I end up sulking at it. Although I do try to regain my composure and then eventually retry...but I often put my heart into a lot of things and half the times end up failing...but eh, I may have to rethink the way I approach things sometimes.

    Some things are simple to deal with, others weigh more heavily on one's mind. But in the end, some tough experiences can be good provided they teach us something.
