How do you behave under the spells of different moods?

Solution
When good things keep happening, we are happy. If we don’t get an easy question paper or the expected questions don’t appear we feel quite upset. If a close friend becomes angry, instead of analyzing what caused it, we feel dejected. When centum is the goal, even 99% of marks disappoint us.
