Today, I was prioritizing my extreme amount of homework. I read over the front page of my psychology paper seeing that it was pretty easy questions, I decided to do it last. Little did I know there was a 8 page essay on the back of the page. It's 12:19 am. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I realized I forgot to write a 5000 word essay for my English class. I tried to be calm since I had until midnight to finish, and it was only 8pm. I typed for three hours straight,and finished the assignment. I read over the instruction again, and realized it only had to be 500 words. 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 found out that my ten-page paper, which has taken me two months to construct perfectly and is worth 30% of my grade, was on the wrong book. It’s due tomorrow. 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 woke up knowing I'd done all my homework, so I'd have the day free. My dad calls me into his room to tell me that I have 3 outstanding exam papers to hand in this week. It was summer homework, set by my school's online learning website that I didn’t know it existed. FML
Today, I took an exam, for which I have been studying for weeks, I was confident at first, but then really struggled with it. I finished with about ten minutes to spare, turned to what I thought would be the end of my paper and found the first page of questions I was supposed to have answered. FML
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
Today, I had a "nightmare" where I found out I had more homework than I originally realized, and spent the entire dream doing homework. There is no escape. FML
Today, after having pulled like three all-nighters and studying hardcore for months, when it came down to it, I couldn't solve even one question. I almost broke down. FML
Today, I'm doing homework but still can't submit it, mainly due to the homework being bombarded more than three times during the week, from eight subjects, all due in three days. I sleep barely two hours a day, still not finishing the work and getting shitty exam marks. I wonder when this cycle of work will end… FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

How the **** do teachers these days expect you to do all these assignments in one night? Do they think they are the only ******* class you have or something?

I've been given a lot of homework all at once, and all due in at once. Depends what kind of teacher you have.

Yeah, almost all teachers think "I'm your only teacher so I'm sure that you have time to do MY assignment." That is also why a bunch of them like to plan their finals on the same day at the same time. Argh. On a more on topic note to the OP, what the hell are you doing on FML rather than working on that paper?

Because obviously some people need homework to help them learn that it is "AN" 8 page paper, not "A" 8 page paper.

YDI for procrastinating. No prof gives out homework like that due the next day. My Bachelors Degree is in Psyc and an assignment like that would probably have been given a few days in advance.

Agreed with 39 and 42. YDI for procrastinating, and then complaining about the fact that you didn't know what your homework was. Sucks to be you.

They don't spring all this on you to do in one day, you procrastinating mother ******.

I totally agree number 1 when I was in scoop ( I recently graduated) I was up until at least 11 every night doing nothing but homework we should be more like certain parts of Canada that have made homework illigal. if u didn't understand it in class then u won't get the homework either. therefore it Is useless I wasted 25 years of my life (with college) all day almost everyday doing nothing but homework, and it's only because bullshit teachers today don't know what the **** they are doing and are stupider than the students. so they give out ass loads of work to act like their teaching us stuff. (belive me I went to school in Nevada YIKES) anyway this work load for kids that can't even drive yet is at to much.

I had more homework in high school.

You are a moron. The point of homework is to practice the concepts. Repetition makes information stay in your mind. That is basic psychology right there. How fitting.

Read your assignment beforehand you silly bitch.

Sometimes they do. Specially on college. People get an average of 0.5 hours of sleep per day on the last two weeks of the semester.

Half an hour of sleep average for two weeks? BS. People become psychotic after about a week without sleep. The hallucinations start after a few days. It also doesn't say much for the pride people take in their work (schoolwork or otherwise) wherever you are. Or maybe the academic standards. The only all-nighter I pulled during my engineering degree was on the day AFTER my last exam, putting the finishing touches on my entry for a national engineering competition (based on my 4th-year project). And I wasn't a particularly driven student, compared to my peers. But then again, my university wasn't known for its wild parties.

I'm fairly sure that #30's comment on the sleep deprivation was hyperbole rather than an actual statistic... I thought everyone got that :/ I thought it was funny.

there's no way a prof assigned an 8 page essay without talking about it. that's like a short term paper.

My last semester at college, I slept an average of one night per week. The rest of the time, I was practically secreting caffeine and Vitamin B. I was working 2 jobs, taking 20 credits (most in-class, some online) and doing extra-curriculars. That only left me the hours from 1am-7am to do homework, which there was a steady flow of... So I believe the .5 hours per night

so why are you posting an FML if you need to be doing your work

Also, I love how this FML got posted a minute after it was submitted. There are enough people on here modding, yet NO one is commenting on FMLs and fighting and screaming that theyve beaten everyone else to the earliest comment. Ah, what a good day today is.

no, she submitted it at 12:20... the time on the fml's is when the person submitted them, not when they actually showed up on the homepage.

Time on/in the FML ≠ FMLs post time.

But wouldn't it of taken you the same amount of time to do them all anyway? Even if you did this one first :s

but it so much easier to write a 8 page essay at an earlier time when your not as tired
bipolaradhdfml 0
If you don't know you have an 8-page essay to write, you might take a more leisurely pace to complete the rest of it.

You had an eight-page essay to write and instead of, oh, I don't know, STARTING TO WRITE IT, you decided to waste time on fmylife.com?

8 page? Write in f'ing huge letters?

Better - put one period or comma per line to size 14 font. If you're reading a printed version it is completely undetectable, yet adds a full paragraph per two or three pages.
Ri_Fox9 9
You do know most college proffessors require 11 or 12 font size, correct?
