Ok ok so we all have those bad days, bad moments, etc in relation to this WOL. I know we have sunshine moments thread and other things, but I think there should be a thread to get out your frustrations, maybe things didn't go the way you wanted to on a dinner out or etc... In fact, perhaps the start of this tread was fueled by my need for a venting moment...

I'm in college right now and I'm taking 3 classes. One of which is Introduction to Modern Symbolic Logic. I took a test last week and a quiz and I got them back tonight in this evening's class. I was surprised!!! The test was EXTREMELY hard and so was the quiz but I got 88% on the exam and 100% on the quiz!!!! YAYY well anyways.. the class was long and arduous but I got through it. So I JUST walk in the door, all tired and brain dead and guess what? My stepdad asks me to go to friggin BASKIN & ROBBINS and get him some ice cream!!!! WTF!!! I can't even have the stuff, I hadn't eaten dinner I was friggin starving and I LOVE ICE CREAM. God I hate him, I had to drive all the way up to the ice cream store, look at all the ice cream, have people look at me probably thinking "she's fat why is she getting ice cream" and if I said that it was for someone else they would be like "yeah right tub-o-lard" so I went and got him his friggin ice cream.. is that the payment I get for my good grades and faithfullness to the diet????

briannajoy, you could look at it this way ...

Most of the people getting ice cream are doing it because they have a compulsion to eat sugar that they are not even aware of. It will eventually make them very sick.

However, you don't. You are ENLIGHTENED! You know you don't need it and you know why. You also did fantastically on a test and a quiz.

Now, is that something to feel smug about or what?

Good Job on the grades and the self discipline over the ice cream! I tool Symbolic Logic last semester and its not an easy course, think of it this way though it helps you in writing papers! I loved the derivations and of course the truth trees!

Just remember you'll have food tests like that all the time. I unfortunately failed one on the weekend, I volunteer with an emotionally disturbed young man and it was his birthday on Saturday, I did wonderfully through the meal, all the way till the desert, then they brought out DQ Ice Cream cake - well I was done for - I resisted for a while then finally gave in when he gave me those cow eyes, pleading with me to have a peice!

Congrats again!!
