Today, I rushed to the post office to mail an important document for the study abroad program that I'd applied for, which was due in a few days. Just as the envelope slipped out of my hand and into the mail box, I caught a glimpse of the upper right corner where there was supposed to be a stamp. FML

I know how you feel, I forgot a stamp with my student finance form and its really close to the deadline so i didn't have time for another form. I had to go to the post office and beg for my letter back, but they couldn't do that, thankfiully on the way home i saw the postman collecting all the letters and persuaded him to put a stamp on it.

Ignore the trolls. You're not dumb for making a simple mistake, especially since you were probably really stressed, in a situation like that, and stress can make it hard to remember things and concentrate. I hope you managed to get it there on time anyway.

So you wait for the next day for them to stick it back in your mailbox, then send it out again. =P If you didn't put a return address, or didn't leave enough time, then YDI. As a fellow member of EAP, I know that they give you plenty of time to get deadlines.

Send another copy of the document, and this time FedEx it! You'll be fine (but yeah - that sucks).
