Wow! I want to succeed, but I'm not sure how. Perhaps I should watch other successful people. Perhaps I should watch my friend Jody as she perseveres through the tumultuous waters of a beginning teacher. I admire her drive and tenacity, and most of all, her overarching optimism!
So, this is what you are threatening? Standing in the corner until I can be nice to my sister? Do you actually think it will work. Well, yes, you're right--at least for the moment. It will work for now, because I hate it so. Yes, it will make me calm down, but only for now--not forever.
