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

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 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, 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, which said, "April fools! Love mom and dad." FML

I also go to Geneseo and I have only heard horror stories of absurd amounts of extra work when it comes to the honors program. You don't need to be in the honors program anyways to come out in good shape since Geneseo degrees now have a public honors college distinction anyways. You'll also have alot more free time on your hands since you won't have to spend your time writing papers and you can go out and rage with your friends on the weekend at the Vital or the IB. I definitely recommend going to Geneseo regardless of the honors courses. And for anyone who has any beef with SUNY schools or Geneseo, try taking an actual look at the standards. Geneseo is regularly ranked among the top public schools in the country.

Are you in America? Isn't tampering with the mail a federal crime over there? Call the police and get him arrested. That should show him that he's out of line.

Wow, I would kill him... not figuratively either... I mean he would die by my hands. At the very least I would beat him until he never touched anything of mine again. I hope your parents did something to punish him for being such a little prick.
