Today, I was denied acceptance to the University of Georgia. I was down all day so I decided to go to a party my friend was throwing. Thinking it would cheer me up, as soon as I arrive, all I see is colleges on shirts, hats, and sweatshirts, most being UGA. It was a college acceptance party. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was walking with a friend to tell him how excited I was for college and even motivating him to apply for the same school, until I found out later that I got rejected. FML
Today, I was accepted to the college of my dreams. Then I checked the address. Turns out, the letter was meant for my neighbor. I was actually denied. FML
Today, I found out I wasn't cool enough to be invited to a college party that happened last night. The one in charge of inviting people was my girlfriend of two years. FML
Today, I went to my first university party already a little drunk. I perched on the end of a table to cool off from the dancing and the whole table tipped over and dumped me onto the floor. I was promptly laughed out of the room. FML
Today, I got 3 different rejection letters mailed to me from the same college. FML
Today, I got invited to a big upperclassmen party that underclassmen don't normally get invited to. I was feeling really good when I got there and saw that the girl I'm in love with was there. They stole my pants and gave me a swirly. Her reaction was to post pictures on Facebook. FML
Today, I pulled up to a party with my friends. I never partied in high school and college due to being bullied, so I was excited for my first party. It turned out to be a college house party, I'm a little older by 3 years but it’s no big deal. They mistook me for a freshman and I was bullied. FML
Today, I was excited because I was going to get my college decisions back. I put all of the letters in order of my preference. Didn't get into my first choice. Denied from my second choice. Rejected from my third choice. Wait listed on my back-up. Accepted for a job at Target. FML
Today, I got a large envelope from a college I applied to earlier. My mom, expecting big news, made my family gather round as I opened it. It ended up being a letter of rejection from not just that school, but all three campuses of the state college. FML
Today, I got into my dream university. I also got turned down for the scholarship and the loan that would enable me to actually go. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

There are other colleges and chances. Did you at least get to enjoy the party anyway? In your situation, I'd make the best of it.

@ Idiots crap-talking UGA: If your GPA is below a 3.7 you can pretty much forget being accepted; everybody applies and the standards are much higher than you think. Even with with a 3.9 or a 4.0, it's still a gamble to get in. I just happened to win out on this one. It doesn't matter, though, because I ended up attending GCSU, which I'm happy with.

You deserve it. You should have applied to Georgia Tech instead. So much better

Don't worry about not getting into U(sic)GA. I am sure you'll get into a much better school ! Even if everyone is talking about the grades you need to get in , no one talks about what you get out of it. Be happy you can go somewhere that won't destroy your logic and thinking capabilities ! GO TECH !!
