★Listen to a conversation between two students at registration

W: Here we are at registration again; I can’t believe how much tuition has gone up.
M: I know it’s ridiculous. You know my cousin Anne pays nothing to go her school in Kentucky.
W: Nothing! Maybe I should transfer there.
M: You can’t, only the students from certain part of Kentucky can go. It’s only for students from
APPALACHIAN Mountains area.
W: So with no tuition how do they run the school.
M: Well, they get a lot of donations.
W: And that pays for everything?
M: Well, they also get some money from the government and besides that all the students are required to work at the college that why the college doesn’t need to hire a lot of side-workers.
W: Yeah, that will help cut the school expenses, so what kind of job do they do?
M: My cousin helps to clean the dorm. I think her roommates wash dishes in the cafeteria. Things like
that.
W: That sounds great! Come to think that I heard that something in Georgia called hope scholarship.
M: Hope scholarship? What’s that?
W: I think they used state lottery money to give free tuition. But not everyone from Georgia qualifies.
You need at least B average in high school.
M: I should apply for that. I had really good grades in high school.
W: No, you had to be in Georgia.
M: Just my luck


我想請問的是最後一句....
Just my luck 是啥意思呢?? ;-$

麻煩各位了....thx!!

luck是運氣,命運的意思
根據那男的語氣,推測意思大概是"就是我的命不好啦"
個人臆測,毫無根據,謹慎參考,還請前輩高手出面指點!! :PP
所謂理論,就是知道為什麼,但卻什麼都行不通;
所謂實務,就是不知道為什麼,但是什麼都行得通;
至於理論與實務合而為一:就是什麼都行不通,而且不知道為什麼!!

真倒楣 just my luck

If you say it is just your luck that something unpleasant has happened to you, you mean that this is quite normal because unpleasant things are always happening to you. (INFORMAL)
