Today, I checked over my notes from yesterday's midterm review so I could study for the test on Monday. It seems I was so exhausted, I'd done nothing but scribble unintelligibly all over the first page. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was reviewing for a major nursing school exam I have this week. I panicked because none of the material seemed familiar, and figured that I must've missed something during class and now had to catch up. After 4 hours, I finally realized that I'd been studying from the wrong textbook. FML
Today, I was taking a test and thought I was doing great until I realized I was writing all my answers on the question paper, not the answer sheet. By the time I noticed, there were only five minutes left. FML
Today, I took a major test, worth half my grade, not realizing that there were questions on the back of the sheet. FML
Today, I just studied for 13.5 hours completely outlining a book for history. Thirty minutes before the test, I realized I had been reading the wrong book. FML
Today, I was in my psychology class taking the hardest test ever. After I spent most of the period trying to fill in the few answers that I knew, I looked up to see everyone with their notebooks on their desks. It was an open-note test. FML
Today, I got my results on a recent, important midterm. During the exam, I'd noticed my instructor had accidentally left an answers page in the test packet, so being honest, I didn't look at them. It turns out she did it on purpose to help us pass. I failed. FML
Today, I pulled an all-nighter to finish an essay. I submitted it one minute before the deadline. Later, I opened the file to double-check and realized I'd uploaded my rough draft, containing notes like “THIS PART MAKES NO SENSE, FIX LATER.” The professor then replied, “I agree with your assessments.” FML
Today, I found out that my entire class, me included, has to rewrite the painfully difficult midterm we wrote last week. All this because the Professor left the exams strewn across her desk. The cleaners thought it was trash and disposed of them. FML
Today, I got back my math test. Instead of taking the time to mark the mistakes, my professor just circled the bottom half of the page and wrote "OMG." FML
Today, I was taking an exam and I knew I was unprepared, so I wrote some cheat notes on my ankle. As I cross my legs to look at my notes, I realize I wore tall boots to class. I can't even cheat properly. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Maybe it's a bonus question on the test.

Call a friend that shares that class. I'm sure they will understand if you explain your issue and that you aren't being lazy. That's what friends are for!

This guy is gonna get a shit load of YDI's but truthfully who doesn't miss out on some notes once in a while? So before you vote think about what'd you'd do. This has happened to me too so FYL.

Aw c'mon. For me half the notes are hard to read (had to write fast), drawings or random scribbling at the end of one word that goes through the whole page.

Hey recklessjellybee, if you wouldn't be such a perverted bastard, you might have a chance to be successful in life.

At first glance, I thought your picture was supposed to be dirty.

That's all assuming OP even has a friend in their class. Of my 5 classes this semester I only have an acquaintance in one of them. She's not a friend but we can get notes from each other. The rest of my classes I'm on my own.

You don't try to become friends with people in your class? I make sure to make at least one friend in each of my classes so that we can study together or I can get notes if I miss a class.
MissHayleyJames 7
I don't try to become friends, period. I've got my best friend, another friend and my husband so it's all I need.

OP means illegibly scribbled. That is not the same as unintelligently scribbled. It seems OP unintelligently scribbled this FML as well.

Maybe you should get some notes from a person less exhausted.

You're have nice look. Not the kind of person I would date, but I would watch you in a **** video.

53, you have a creepy air. Not the kind of person I'd hang out with, but I would hide behind newspapers and strangers to avoid you.

Or 5 Hour Energy. I keep some in backpack whenever I'm about to doze off. Chuck it down just like a shot - and you'll perk right up. :)

Or...here's a crazy thought: a good night's sleep!
ohmandapants 17
^ a good night's sleep? Wait until you get to college...
ClassyCommando 13
Yeah, sure. I'm just trying to say that there are better alternatives to energy drinks.

Wtf "wait until you get into college" you're ******* 18. Granted that's old enough to be in college but the only reason you don't get a good nights sleep is because you are like every other college kid out there which was also me at 1 point. The reason is you rather go and hangout with people and do what 18 year old college kids do the get a good nights sleep. My point is that you can get a good nights sleep in college if you prioritize. But where's the fun in that.

True fact, especially in Quebec with the dumb "cote R" calculation in which you need to work your ass off for some great marks. Sleep isn't part of our lifes because of that...
emilyjgraham 34
Difference between America and the UK (not sure where else) - college in America is to get your degrees and it is generally harder than what the UK calls college, over here college (or sixth form if you stay in school) prepares you for what we call university. So I can understand the mix up between American college kids losing sleep because the assignments are so much bigger and more important than the UK college kids.
ThogTheCaveman 7
Yeah American colleges are different. Everything's a college, no matter how anybody else thinks of it. The only ones that anyone thinks of as universities dont call themselves universities.

78- you don't know what the hell you're talking about so shut up. I do not go out and party every night. I'm in my 2nd year of college. You don't live in Quebec. 81 is completely right. I lose sleep because I have so much work to do, it's suffocating. So please, don't talk out of your ass when you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.
ClassyCommando 13
So if the fact that you're in Quebec is so important that you need to remind 78 that he doesn't live there, why did you tell me to "Wait until I get to college" if I don't live there either?
Llama_Face89 34
96- depending on your major and dedication you will have the same lack of sleep anywhere you go to school.

Guess you might want to read your books to study. Not really a big deal.
