Today, I got an email from my University informing me that I was invited to an exclusive dinner for 25 people. As I continued to read through the email, I discovered that I wasn't lucky or special, but that the dinner was for financially unstable students. They think I'm a charity case. FML

Free food is free food. This might involve free money for school as well. You aren't above anything.

What's wrong with being poor? I'm poor, I've been poor all my life. If I was offered a free meal and possible financial aid, I'd take advantage of it in a second!

Yea, wheres the fml? This is a good thing. If you are so ******* proud you can't accept your 'financial instability', then that is an fml, in the truest sense that it is not just a moment that is ******, but your whole, insignificant, life that is ******. Majorly ******. Like, way major.

"They think" ... so what? If the lotto people thought you won the lotto when you did not would you tell them to go stick it up their ass? What the hell is wrong with you? Take the food. Meet people. Get free help.

I agreed after you said "Free food is free food." In fact, I'd go just for the food...Lol!

I don't understand why this is a fml don't snubb it you probaly need it. oppertunities like that helped my sister pay for a college education and is helping me at the moment pay for college. go for it sometimes you just need to swollow your pride.

who cares if they think you are poor school is expensiveso take free money and food

*opportunities *swallow With grammar like that you'll be needing to swallow something else to pay for your college.

88- those weren't grammatical mistakes, they were spelling errors. im surprised you even know what a schol is.

Hey, at least you get free food, eh? I wouldn't mind being viewed as a broke bugger who can't support himself if I get free stuff out of it.

So? Students are meant to be poor unless they're living off their parents or working way too hard. It's not really embarrassing that they'd think that, and it's nothing to turn your nose up at if you are poor.

Your university is going to give you FREE FOOD and probably SCHOLARSHIP MONEY. How is this an FML at all??? I'll take your scholarship off your hands.... I'll be a "charity case".... You really are lucky to get selected for something like that. You should be more appreciative.
