TIFU by pulling an all-nighter, getting sick, skipping class because if it, and passing out

I’m probably the dumbest college student to ever exist. I feel so stupid right now. I have decent grades (all Bs), but I feel ridiculous. I can’t believe I did something so stupid.

So basically, I was working on a group project with a bunch of people at the stroke of midnight, as we're all night owls. The project was due the next day. We had been working on it for a week, and all putting in our best. I ended up working with then over text until about 2AM, then decided I wanted to unwind and keep working on stuff, even though my class was at 11 the next day. As you can tell, I'm not very smart.

I ended up staying up until 10AM. So I got absolutely no sleep, and this is the time I usually get up for class (I usually sleep at 12-1). I tried to get up, but physically could not. I felt extremely weak, and started to feel nauseous. I felt like my eyes were burning, and I just started my “girl stuff” (period) and was cramping. I stood up but nearly passed out because I was so weak. There was no way I would be able to physically go to class, so I didn't. I usually go every time, and am a great student. I ended up actually passing out on in my dorm hallway and falling asleep on my couch until 7PM. Security was actually called on me because I wasnt responding to my group messages and my classmates I worked with were worried. Not mad, worried, because this is something I almost never do.

The good news is, I have never turned in an assignment late and have turned in everything, including the project, so that isn’t a dilemma.

I ended up getting my second allowed abcense out of four (first was a fuck up with an attendance sheet while actually in class, so this is my first class I actually skipped) and I feel so defeated. I'm never going to do a dumb mistake like that again, and definitely not pull another all nighter. I feel like a horrible student that my professor doesn't deserve. I’m as lazy and entitled as all the students /Professors rants about, and dumber than the dumbest of my shitty Gen Z generation. I've being crying because I feel so bad about it :(

TL ;DR: stayed up all night working, got sick, didn't go to class because of it, passed out, didn't eat, feel guilty about it

Edit: I cried it all out and feel a bit better. I realize now I was just overreacting. Thanks y’all for reassuring me it’s fine :)

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
