[usr] Have you ever prepare for something for a long period of time. And it still not turn out how you wanted it to. [sys] Yeah I guess that happens every once in a while.  Something you went through recently? [usr] A track meet I had been training for, for bascially my entire life. [qst] ask me for further details [bhv] I'm in a negative mood, please comfort me.
Oh that's too bad.  I'm assuming you didn't win?
I had trained hard all year for this one meet ( NCAA championship) I knew that no matter what happened on that day. If someone beat me they were just better and that I had done everything I could have.
