Today, I received yet another rejection letter from a college I'd applied to. After crying for a week about how lousy I felt, my older sister gave me all 6 of the acceptance letters she'd been hiding. Turns out she's been forging rejection letters and keeping the real ones in her room. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I received a rejection letter from a college that I'd applied to 6 years ago. FML
Today, I got 3 different rejection letters mailed to me from the same college. FML
Today, I got a large envelope from a college I applied to earlier. My mom, expecting big news, made my family gather round as I opened it. It ended up being a letter of rejection from not just that school, but all three campuses of the state college. FML
Today, I was cleaning my father's study room and wondering why I did not receive my acceptance/rejection letter from a college I really wanted. I found the acceptance letter, on his desk, also approving of a full scholarship. The deadline to confirm was a month ago. FML
Today, I was accepted to the college of my dreams. Then I checked the address. Turns out, the letter was meant for my neighbor. I was actually denied. FML
Today, I received another letter of rejection from the university of my dreams. I got it the first time, but thanks for reminding me. FML
Today, I borrowed my dad's laptop to type an essay. While I was saving it, I noticed some curious looking files and I opened them. They were rejection letters from all the colleges I had applied to. My dad had been forging them so he wouldn't have to pay for my tuition bills. FML
Today, I received a series of rejection letters from jobs, one after the other. Last night, I stayed up into the wee morning hours to apply to campus jobs I'm not qualified for, because I was classified as a part-time student due to an administrative error. FML
Today, despite having glowing recommendations, stellar grades, and an impressive resumé, I was rejected by all 15 colleges that I applied to. No explanation or reasons have been given, and it's too late to apply to any more. FML
Today, I was walking with a friend to tell him how excited I was for college and even motivating him to apply for the same school, until I found out later that I got rejected. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I get the whole sibling rivalry thing, but your sister is a bitch.

When it's that time of the month for her, hide all of the pads and tampons in the house. She's gonna bloody regret messing with you :)

Kinda sounds like something I'd do....

I'm curious on how she was able to forge a college envelope.

She probably used the original envelope..she also could have said that she opened it on "accident" without looking at it. That's what my brother did with my college letters, he opened them and said it was an "accident."

That's a cruel trick.

That's not very nice of your sister. But on the bright side - congratulations on all your acceptances to university! :)

im sorry but you guys seem to be overreacting. my siblings did the same thing to me. this isnt a new prank its actually one of the oldest pranks in the book. its sad you guys havent heard about it. and besides this is an oppurtunity to grow! the fact that they just took a week to cry about it instead of pushinf through shows that they can learn to harden their shell a little more. whats going to happen if they dont do good on a paper, are they going to quit college? there are kids who do that! and its because people dont do pranks like this and because they arent toughened up a little that it happens.

How are we overreacting? What his sister did was wrong and not to mention it's emotionally abusive to the OP since he thought he was lousy for a week.

You seem to have zero concept of scale. Failing one paper is a minor setback that's easy to overcome if you work hard the rest of the semester. Being rejected from ALL the colleges you applied to is a huge setback that could greatly impact your entire future.

Technically a federal offense, assuming OP is 18 or older, if they want to get back proportionately. Mail tampering =/= OK for ANYTHING, let alone college acceptance letters.

I hope you didn't miss the decision deadlines for the schools! That would suck.

FOLLOWUP: The acceptance letters were also forgeries!

That sucks. I mean, brilliant prank, but totally sucks on the receiving end. On the bright side, you are going to college - and you get to choose.

Your sister has a promising future in psychological torture.
