Today, I saw a letter from Geneseo that invited me to apply to the honors college. Excited, I wrote the required two page essay on how I am organized. I then saw the strict deadline was March 15th. My little brother thought it would be funny to hide my mail. For the past seven weeks. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my parents gave me a letter they'd forgotten about since late last year. In it was a $30,000 scholarship to a local master's program with an application due date of two weeks ago. 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 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 found out that my dad, thinking it was an advertisement, threw away a letter from the college I applied to. FML
Today, I was excited to hear that I received three of my grad school recommendations in the mail from a very busy professor. They need to be submitted sealed, and of course, my nosy mom decided to open them. FML
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
Today, I went to an Honors Convocation for my school. I received a letter a few weeks earlier telling me I received an award. Surprised and proud, I invited my family to join me to see what award I was receiving. I couldn't find my name in the program. I was invited by mistake. FML
Today, while reading over my sent application email to a job I have been trying to get, I found out my brother had put "Heil Hitler!" as my signature. FML
Today, I got a letter from Yale Law School saying I got a 4 year full scholarship. I called my dad crying and read the whole thing… even the bottom of the letter, which said, "April fools' ! Love, Mom and Dad." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Buy your brother a 12 pack of condoms. Wait until he uses at least one of them. Then tell him you poked a hole in seven of the condoms, russian roulette style, one for each week he hid your mail. Watch him freak right the **** out. Hilarity shall ensue.

I went to Geneseo, and i did the honors program and graduated last year. Let me say your little brother did you a favor! It's a huge waste of time, the money is not worth it, and it doesn't even show up on your degree at the end, you will just get a star next to your name at graduation in the pamphlet and 5 pages over it will say "honors program". The only thing i got from all of it was a major headache during the second semester of senior year as I was trying to finish my thesis and all my friends were going out drinking. It's not worth your time!

This is definitely not true. I applied to Geneseo, and the application itself was due Jan. 1st. And if the op is talking about the honors program, well the application for that isn't due until May 1st because I received an application for that as well. But cute story. ;]

hahahaha 71. But yeah don't you ever say kill the brother. You're all ass holes. He's a little brother that wants his older brother's attention. little kids don't know how to act sometimes. I'm sure the OP would agree.

Honors college is a complete waste. Don't even worry about it. Your little bro saved you, believe it or not.
