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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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?

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!

Why so many YDIs? College sucks sometimes. Staying up until 4am studying then going to a 7am class is murder.

That's when you play nice with the cute nerd in your class and 'study,' and then borrow their notes. ;)

It's okay you're a cute sleepy kitty, cuteness factor overrules in this case. :)

In life, she is lucky she is so damn cute. Cause she is the MOST talkative cat ever. Never shuts up. I carry on whole conversations with her, yet the other has no idea what's said.

In the future, recording things might be useful.

I feel your pain. Even when I'm not tired I have a hard time reading my notes in certain classes because the teachers go so damn fast. I had 2 tests, a 666 page book ( I'm not making that up) to read and write a paper on, and another analytical paper on the GDP of Italy and the US. I got no sleep this week whatsoever. When I was done with it all and had no other homework I freaked out because I didn't know how to handle the free time. Good luck OP. College is pure hell. I can't wait to be done this May. The only good thing about it is you're more likely to get a better paying job when you're done. Other than that it's so not worth it to go.
