Today, I ran 5 miles to catch the bus I take to university after missing my connection. When I got to the bus stop, I realized I had left my U-Pass on my desk at home. On top of the assignment that was due. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I almost missed the bus. I grabbed my backpack and ran out the door. It wasn't until after we got to school that I realized I was still in my slippers. FML
Today, after studying all night for an exam, I ran out to catch the bus. On my way to the bus, my hair got caught in a branch for some minutes. Thinking I'd missed the bus but thankfully didn't, I went on. A few minutes later I remembered that my exam had been postponed for 3 hours today. FML
Today, I was late for class and I had to run to catch my bus, which only stops near our house twice a day. I made it to the doors just as they closed, and the bus drove away… with my sweaty reflection staring back at me in the moving bus door window. FML
Today, I took the bus home after visiting a friend. Standing in front of my house, I realized that I had forgotten my keys. They were still in my car, which I had parked at my friend's place and forgotten. FML
Today, I forgot my library book on a bench then I got on a bus, so I got off at the next stop and walked back to get it. I arrived just in time to see some guy pick it up and hop on another bus. So now I'm not on the bus I needed, and I have to pay for the book. FML
Today, I was late for work so I ran to catch the bus. I made it. Unfortunately, the bus was actually out of service, and I just sprinted to a parked vehicle for no reason. FML
Today, I was mugged on my way to the bus stop. With no money or mobile, I started to panic about the exam I had, and ran the 3.5 miles to get to there. When I staggered up to the building only 20 minutes after the exam started, the university staff wouldn't let me sit it as I couldn't prove my identity. FML
Today, I had to take the train from my hometown to my university for a very important meeting concerning my foreign exchange program. When I finally arrived, I noticed a Post-it on the door: "Meeting cancelled, sick". I basically made a 9-hour day-trip for a half-an-hour walk. FML
Today, I missed my bus to school, so I took my bike. The bus that I missed ignored a stop sign on its way back, making me crash into it. FML
Today, I got the bus to work instead of walking so I could be there faster. However, I accidentally got on the wrong bus which let me off a mile and a half away from my workplace. Then, after another half-hour of trying to walk there, I found that it wasn't even open that day. FML

You forgot pretty much everything you need. Did you leave naked aswell? Is that the other part of the FML you decided to omit? Yes, I'm patronising you.

Uni is a bit different from highschool. The OP could probably turn the assignment in late, with a minor late penalty. But if I'm not wrong, usually if you turn it in by the same day, even if it wasn't during the course hour, there still shouldn't be any deduction.

I'm a TA at university, and I can't even accept assignments turned in late the same day. It's a hard rule, no exceptions. I accept emailed assignments though, but only if I get the email before the deadline. Actually, in a lot of science-y classes at my uni it's the same.

GreenDaemon21 Based on your comment, should we expect you to be the one to "bring home the bacon"? because it seems that with your lack of intelligence, you'll be lucky if McDonald's ever hires you.

GreenDaemon21, the seventies called, they said they want their catchphrase back. (PS: I'm quite liking these "time" jokes.)

Please learn how to spell and how to seem like an educated person, not like the high school dropout vibe I'm getting right now. Live and let learn, emphasis on live

That sucks, but you ran 5 miles to catch a bus?? That's some dedication.

After missing your connection... ..doesn't that mean that you had just gotten off one bus? Didn't you need your pass for the first bus? unless it was a different type of bus.. I confuse..
tiancai 0
From what I can make of it, the "U-pass" she was referring to seems to be more along the lines of a student ID or something of the sort which she requires to access the university campus...
doctorseuss 0
a "U-Pass" is a bus pass that you pay for and get a sticker to put on your student ID card. So she could have just paid for the bus this one time but it's kind of pointless to go to school since she didn't have anything to turn in. And to the previous comment, she missed her connection so she had to run the 5 miles instead of taking the first bus

"when I got to the bus stop" How does that indicate that they already went on a bus?
pogostick_fml 2
She may have gotten off the Skytrain, which is Vancouver's subway system. She probably just got onto the train, not realizing that she didn't have her U-pass. They rarely check to see if everyone has passes.

or maybe she goes to ufv (in which the upass only works in Abbotsford) and took the bus from Langley or somewhere

Did you only just remember that it was all a dream?

I'm calling fake. 5 miles is just absurd. I'm in track. Trust me 5 miles is beyond anybodys willpower when it comes to catching a bus to school. Call in sick say you got the 24 hour flu from a friend. Or say your pets violently sick. There's tons of excuses you can use.
Reaper181991 0
im not in track and have ran/jogged that far to get to school. it can be because if you miss anymore days they fail you or it could be that the college has a policy of miss so many days and they kick u out of the class/college

Why do people who post FMLs always separate prepositional phrases from the sentence?
Soulathyia 0
Good point. I just got done with a weekful of exams so I'm pretty much burnt.

I'm pretty sure I made a typo in my last reply.
