Today, at my school, the student council is trying to raise $5000 for Haiti. They are doing so by playing the song from High School Musical in the hallways and cafeteria everyday until they get the money. FML

Today, at my school they were having a carnival to raise money. One of the patrons suggested that if they wanted to make money, they should have people pledge money to make me cover my ugly face with a bag. The school got over $500, and I had to wear a bag. FML

Today, in gym class, we were forced to learn the "Hoedown Throwdown" dance, by Miley Cyrus. This will actually be counted toward my grade. I'm in high school. FML

Today, after two years of vigorously fundraising on behalf of my senior class, they voted on spending the senior trip money at a waterpark. It's less than thirty minutes from where we all live. FML

Today, I'm participating in a 30 hour awareness-raising event on famine in Africa. I'm supposed to hand out leaflets to people from my booth. My school decided to hand out a literal crate-load of free cupcakes right in front of us. FML

Today, I played in a high school concert. Some alumni of the band were sitting in the audience and were brought to tears. Not because it was beautiful, but because they were sad to see how much the music program had declined since they left. FML

Today, it was the début of the high school musical I was in. When two others and I sang the word "Hell", my mother yelled at us for using that language, while the musical was still going, and dragged me off stage. FML

Stealing the scene

By Silverfeathery - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff

Today, during a moment of silence in front of the entire high school during my band concert, I managed to hit the stand with my flute, and loudly scrambled to catch it before it fell over. I've never had so many people look at me. FML

Classy Mom

Today, I was elected "class mom", even though I didn’t want to do it. I was also handed several envelopes in the hectic school hallway, containing parental cash contributions for the year. I lost several of the envelopes while rushing to my car, and now have to contribute €100 instead of €25. FML

Sounds kind of fun to me. If you know a lot of people don't like the song, why not set up a stand selling earplugs and send those profits to Haiti as well?

There must be a threat before you can even begin to have extortion and before you even say it...no playing HSM repeatedly until the money is raised is not a threat.

I have a heart I donate to medical research and the humane society. Not some country who won't help themselves.

You think THAT'S an FML?! I went to East High school. Not only were the halls flooded with annoying little high schoolers (not from our school) who thought they were way cooler than they were, but they trapped us in classrooms while they were filming and we weren't allowed to leave to go to the bathroom, to lunch, or even to go home sometimes!!

1. Break into the student council office and/or meeting room. 2. Place hidden speakers around the room and ready them at maximum volume. 3. Blast Nightwish's "Master Passion Greed", first verse in particular. (Some good black metal might work too, but I just recall the lines going "Who the hell are you to hell me what to do?", among other references to leeching.) 4. ???? 5. Profit!
