Mine was during my junior year of high school.
It was the first day of finals week first semester. There was a terrible snow storm the night before, and I overslept because I had been up the entire night studying for my AP history final (aka having a horrible panic attack and not actually concentrating or retaining any of the material). I got my period that morning and didn't even have time to shower since I was already running late and had about 2 feet of snow to clear off my car.
Then I got to school and had to park about a fucking mile away from the nearest entrance since I got there so late. After walking forfuckingever in the snow, I get to my history class and take a seat to hear a morning announcement that one of the senior kids was in a car accident and died the night before. I didn't know him or anything, but it really shocked and upset me and only made taking that test even more difficult. So after failing that final, literally, I head to my drama class to perform the 10 minutes of scripted comedy that my group didn't write since we decided it'd be a better idea to fuck off and not do anything during the work time we had for the project the enitre 3 weeks prior to the day we were supposed to perform. You can only imagine how fun it is to stand up and "act" in front of a group of 20 of your high school peers having not showered or gotten any sleep the night before.
So after failing that final, literally, all I wanted to do was go home and take a hot shower and wash off all the shit that had been thrown at me that day. The day wouldn't have ended appropriately if we had had hot water, which we didn't because our pipes were frozen. So instead of taking that relaxing shower I had planned, I cried myself to sleep instead.
