As you probably know, my time management is... trash.298Please respect copyright.PENANAWR0JXwq8iv
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 298Please respect copyright.PENANAqzTMGaqBxk
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.298Please respect copyright.PENANAQRPbiVtUeT
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.298Please respect copyright.PENANApHzJszw53E
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.298Please respect copyright.PENANAPjQtD2m9a9
You can try fake a doctor's certificate, or make some lame excuse, but chances are, depending on the lecturer, it's pretty unlikely they'll give you a deadline if you make an excuse so late. 298Please respect copyright.PENANAyEzIvM8Ypy
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.298Please respect copyright.PENANA59fs2sA9lf
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:298Please respect copyright.PENANA6xNozrJbRi
Summer school assignment.298Please respect copyright.PENANAzZikY9rHNQ
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.298Please respect copyright.PENANAd2jPpbaeJf
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.298Please respect copyright.PENANAjVF1jIGf2Q
The reason why this was number 3 was because while I was working on it, I was fairly confident I would finish it, and get a reasonable grade.298Please respect copyright.PENANADwP1a78sOT
298Please respect copyright.PENANAhI8zehrEF4
Number 2:298Please respect copyright.PENANAIXoTv1nr9v
This JUST happened.298Please respect copyright.PENANAhyJSWF4UQY
So I was working on one of my hardest assignments yet, and the lecturer warned us plenty beforehand... but I had to start it on the last day.298Please respect copyright.PENANA94cecMr2MU
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.298Please respect copyright.PENANAtowpFjHhq3
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.298Please respect copyright.PENANAvH9RdM07vP
Second time. Correct answer for the easy case. Time limit exceeded for the hard case... but 96% was correct. I knew my work was probably right, but it was too slow.298Please respect copyright.PENANAbiCohf2c49
298Please respect copyright.PENANAa8o0mida7F
Oh, I was so close to giving up and leaving it right there. I almost did. Because... the thing is, while the due time was in 3 hours, the whole university site was going to go on maintenance in 10 minutes for 4 hours. 298Please respect copyright.PENANAKEpitAVdEC
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 298Please respect copyright.PENANAadftey0OhL
Final try. Instead of changing the foundation of the harder parts, I looked at the easy part... and made a minimal change to my work, hoping that, it would somehow, somehow, make it fast enough.298Please respect copyright.PENANAeDS4A6GvS6
298Please respect copyright.PENANAf4PTMzuLBC
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.298Please respect copyright.PENANAHEvIDMEFFL
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?298Please respect copyright.PENANApyV5bzBIoI
There's no way that small change could work.298Please respect copyright.PENANAwmW8XwLkyJ
298Please respect copyright.PENANAi8UoFrypl1
But ALAS, 10 minutes later, I refreshed the website, and TADA - I PASSED. I couldn't believe my eyes. The only reason why this is second is because technically it wasn't last minute.298Please respect copyright.PENANALhgJUAWVRa
298Please respect copyright.PENANAECBoM4WKYR
Number 1:298Please respect copyright.PENANAXTVeyEH2he
It was a busy semester. I was stuck on an assignment, and my only chance was asking the lecturer on the day. However, I had work, and by the time I went into the lecturer's office, I only had 30 minutes to finish the question. 298Please respect copyright.PENANAUd8ukErcOa
He gave me some hints, and said to me that most people wouldn't get the question right, and it was nearly impossible to finish it in the time I got left.298Please respect copyright.PENANAVCsojSlWvP
It's really stressful working last minute. I don't recommend it. Your mind goes blank for a few minutes, and you have to push yourself to not get overcome by the stress and THINK. THINK. THINK. 298Please respect copyright.PENANA2wXzU5BK5f
Ahh... thanks to the lecturer, I figured out the pattern of the question... but I didn't know how to implement it. Time was ticking. 5 minutes. 3 minutes. 298Please respect copyright.PENANAIxE0ICM6cH
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.298Please respect copyright.PENANAARS4F8ygWX
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.298Please respect copyright.PENANAkF53euz6z4
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.298Please respect copyright.PENANA7GffaQ2heH
298Please respect copyright.PENANAZTwo1N3PrC
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.298Please respect copyright.PENANAJLelSK0ejO
If you're not familiar with code... it doesn't run first try. But thank the stars Stack Exchange knew what they were doing, because it RAN. I saved my file, clicked submit in the last 10 seconds... and done.298Please respect copyright.PENANAmLDsEyxW1r
The lecturer was impressed.298Please respect copyright.PENANAQzJutkJgPq
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 298Please respect copyright.PENANAS0ATFCkXEY
When I didn't submit
There have been a fair number of times when I didn't submit an assignment, test, quiz on time. Hell, I miss a lot of quizzes. 298Please respect copyright.PENANA5MAItrWNAQ
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.298Please respect copyright.PENANAL5ImYC2yVO
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.298Please respect copyright.PENANA2xl12hMCVn
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.298Please respect copyright.PENANAETygREg1QC
298Please respect copyright.PENANAxhnGCxo93E
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.298Please respect copyright.PENANAVKH8G8geRT
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.298Please respect copyright.PENANAzPg2cHvcJm
Crap.298Please respect copyright.PENANA80WhY1epRD
I emailed him again a while later, but I didn't expect it to be marked. Well... I was screwed for the test, anyway. I wasn't sure on so many of the answers.298Please respect copyright.PENANAAaeyGElWM1
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 298Please respect copyright.PENANA0fESdyOucM
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.298Please respect copyright.PENANAAOSnZsc7hY
I've also submitted assignments late. Just emailed my lecturer with proof that I've completed it during the same hour... and usually they let me go. It's become sort of a bad habit now... to 2-3 times per semester. I mean, you'll be pushing it if you do it more than once per course. Hehehe...
I swear my GPA isn't THAT bad. My average is just under A sitting at an A-. I really wanted to get that A though... unfortunately I cannot.298Please respect copyright.PENANAtyTTn5T0KR
298Please respect copyright.PENANAazCuNTJWoL
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 298Please respect copyright.PENANAONTx3mxwmo
Whoops.298Please respect copyright.PENANASwZ1HSDOYp
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!298Please respect copyright.PENANArVmmkTGR2T
