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

Today, I received an award from my school rewarding me for my honor roll and my cheerleading. When I brought the certificate home my mom congratulated me and hugged me. I worked really hard for this and all my dad had to say was, "Try this flavor of Doritos." FML

Today, my math teacher raged at a student for eating an apple in class. As he yelled at the student, he slapped the apple out of his hand and right into my face. Everyone laughed, including the teacher. FML

Today, our landlord came over to chop down our cherished apple tree. While doing so, he ate one of the apples, concurring that they really did taste excellent. FML

Today, I asked my dad for help on some homework I didn't fully understand. He walked away and came back with a huge bowl of grapes and said, "Here's your brain food." Then he left. FML

Today, I was eating an apple in class. When I went to take a big bite, my teeth went right through the apple, causing me to scrape the apple right up my face. My nose then started to bleed. I'm now known as the girl who punched herself in the face with an apple. FML

Is that their way of joking about you becoming a teacher?

Whatever. At least they gave you something. Mine gave me nothing for my college graduation this weekend, but you don't see me writing FMLs about it.

I agree with #180, stop bitching. More then most people in this world couldn't afford to even send you to college. Go try living in a third world country.

A computer is the kind of gift you get before college . . . so now that you have a diploma go get a good job and buy your own overpriced computer.

@172: I think it was their attempt at humor.

SERIOUSLY PEOPLE. Chill the **** out. It's tradition to get a present when you've accomplished something or passed some sort of milestone in your life. It doesn't have to be expensive, just thoughtful. In what way is an apple thoughtful? I, myself, would prefer a nice home made card or a letter over an apple.

154 Soooooo many? Really? I'd like to live in your area. And do you really need a gift from your parents after they raised you and supported you for 18 years? OP: Quit being a baby and use that degree to get a job so you can buy yourself a gift.

Some of you people are heartless. OP's not talking about starving kids in africa, or third world countries, or someone just losing their parents, are they? Nope! Shot, it's nice to get a little gift for graduating. Those people who say YDI probably got nothing themselves. But then again.... wait awhile... you probably will get something good later

When I graduated (after working all thru college to help pay my way) I got a 19 dollar digital watch. When my kid sister graduated, she got a car. No biggie though.
