Today, I was told that, although I was sick on the last day before break, they would still accept the 24 page essay that I had written. Tonight, as I went to print it out, I found that my dad had "cleaned up a bit" on my computer, including the documents from last semester. I have school tomorrow. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I am expected to write an 8 page essay, due tonight. The reason why I don't even have one page yet? My mom decided to take away the only computer I have the essay saved on because I have an 'F' in English. The essay is for English. 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, whilst cleaning out his desk, my dad "accidentally" threw away my summer homework. That's 100 pages, over a duration of 2 months. School starts in 3 days. FML
Today, my teacher told me that she couldn't find my hand-written essay on the Renaissance, and that I have to re-do it all by tomorrow. I later saw my essay on her desk, covered in a massive coffee stain that made virtually everything unreadable. FML
Today, I broke my dominant hand. My teacher insists we hand-write our essays. I called and asked if it was okay for me to type up the essays. She said no. I have two essays due tomorrow, which count for half my grade. FML
Today, I turned in my homework. Too bad I accidentally handed in the printed answer sheet I found online to copy from. 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, after finishing a huge French essay, I realized my printer wasn't working. So, I emailed it to a guy in my class to print and then give to me. When I get to French, he said he had already turned his in early and never got my email. It turned out he used mine. I got an F on the essay. FML
Today, I found out that my entire class, me included, has to rewrite the painfully difficult midterm we wrote last week. All this because the Professor left the exams strewn across her desk. The cleaners thought it was trash and disposed of them. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What's with parents messing with their kids stuff? What happened to respect for other people's things?

Fake. Reposting old fmls is lame you poser. At least come with something original to lie about. No FML for you.

So someone can't go through the same experience as someone else. Wow I didn't know that once someone had gone through something like this it can't ever happen again to them or someone else. ???

dude, open your recycle bin. i can almost guarantee that its still in there. most people are much too lazy to actually empty their recycle bins, unless they have something to hide that theyve deleted.

um...don't you mean they would EXPECT the essay? If they would simply ACCEPT it, that implies them saying it's optional...just saying.

I really doubt you ever had a 24 page assignment that your parents just happened to delete...

Yeah. When you look at a file in a folder on the computer, it shows exactly how long it is, how many words are in it, how long it took you to write, and how important it is, all in one quick glance. ...Oh, wait. That's not right, is it? What really sucks is that you waited to turn it in when you go back, instead of emailing it to your teacher the day it was due.

Sorry, my comment was double-posted.

In most computers all you have to do is go to 'START' 'ALL PROGRAMS" "ACCESSORIES" "SYSTEM TOOLS" then "SYSTEM RESTORE". This will recover your documents... Your an idiot for not saving it somewhere else but i guess you learnt to back-up things the hard way :p LOL

YDI. Computers aren't some mystical box only usable by a select few anymore, they are an integral part of everyday life. If you don't know how to operate one correctly, which includes making backups, encrypting files, etc... then its your own damn fault.
