sentence correct?

Hi

Is below sentence correct?

I can't see her in straight way so I hope she doesn't come in the party held the house on this Friday.
However if she come the party with her friends I don't have any idea how long I can keep my bad feeling in silence at the party. I might be angry and shout her fault to her, knowing all guests the behaviour.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Mister Micawber

Thank you for the sentence correctly.

I might get angry at her, and everyone will notice.

Now I know the above one is right.
But

"I might be angry at her,........"

Can't I say like that?
I think that one might be also possible, but if not, what is my misunderstanding?

Thank you

You have to get angry before you can be angry, that is all.

Dear MM

Thank you for that, but still arousing my question.

I have learnt like that " I am angry at him"

so if I add auxiliary verb to emphasis, that will come "auxiliary verb + main verb".

Am I wrong that I am angry..... and I might be angry...."?

Thank you

First, I need to re-post my original correction, mbouti; I just noticed that the lines became scrambled somehow. It should read:

Dear MM

Thank you for the below sentence.

I might get angry at her when I see her.
I might be angry at her if she does something stupid.
I am angry at her; she stole my pancakes.
I get angry at her every time that she steals my pancakes.

my question is what is different when I use get or be?

It seems to like "get" flowed

Get ( = become) is an activity.
Be is a condition.

Therefore, you must 'get' cold/angry/hungry/tired before you 'are' cold/angry/hungry/tired.

I got angry at 3 pm, and was angry until 4 pm.
I get dressed at 6 am and I am dressed all day long.
I get cold if I don't put on my pajamas, and I am cold all night.

Dear MM

Thank you the excellent examples.
I am now fully understood the difference.

so I can say

"I might get angry at her, and everyone will notic."

I might get angry at her, so I was angry at her all the day.


Thank you
