As you probably know, my time management is... trash.540Please respect copyright.PENANAWWU0lLQRTs
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAx3STimngiI
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.540Please respect copyright.PENANAO7jtefQqUZ
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.540Please respect copyright.PENANA4bqrxeWDHp
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.540Please respect copyright.PENANAZM8vQAmuV2
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. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAn4WGWwlZyO
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.540Please respect copyright.PENANAmUZ48nNF4l
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:540Please respect copyright.PENANAkCOpQH6bFG
Summer school assignment.540Please respect copyright.PENANAnCFZPDb98u
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.540Please respect copyright.PENANA3yEQsoFLOs
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.540Please respect copyright.PENANArUMXoYBBtQ
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANAfmVtnlRS3n
540Please respect copyright.PENANAkSlIBwqLJY
Number 2:540Please respect copyright.PENANAvu45PL4U8M
This JUST happened.540Please respect copyright.PENANACp1EtxZJap
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANAA6yE94pZDq
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.540Please respect copyright.PENANAr397WskUcu
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.540Please respect copyright.PENANAxhU53TlrHb
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANApd6vdqlQHb
540Please respect copyright.PENANAWADFdzWQxw
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. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAHH5GcSlNBJ
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 540Please respect copyright.PENANA506gqwf57d
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANAEqEd6X9On4
540Please respect copyright.PENANAJU8kUWq55o
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.540Please respect copyright.PENANAkKbAo4LfOq
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?540Please respect copyright.PENANAc3QPDILIeW
There's no way that small change could work.540Please respect copyright.PENANAMimpAZbB42
540Please respect copyright.PENANARKhdEIcjY7
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANAt5ukcrWYTM
540Please respect copyright.PENANAIzmMv70D2W
Number 1:540Please respect copyright.PENANAwMondhOTW8
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. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAJEwgOBv4FD
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANAar1Z56rTZH
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. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAk0DYOySqJw
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. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAh9de4KiVVF
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.540Please respect copyright.PENANAeK8G9x7ZpO
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.540Please respect copyright.PENANAum0jDtG3uL
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.540Please respect copyright.PENANAXfFtl0iC2w
540Please respect copyright.PENANA1xr3KXnT6V
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.540Please respect copyright.PENANAG8qDHZaNlw
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANApYsAbc6CAs
The lecturer was impressed.540Please respect copyright.PENANAG0RQe72Wv6
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAzUCm57PpO4
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. 540Please respect copyright.PENANADqTrCtd1VH
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.540Please respect copyright.PENANAGRdb9M63om
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.540Please respect copyright.PENANAHfdOy17vMz
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.540Please respect copyright.PENANADtEI2MU6Sp
540Please respect copyright.PENANA1ycR3SDVxQ
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.540Please respect copyright.PENANAO1gaefs1Jc
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.540Please respect copyright.PENANAYLD0TOVtUl
Crap.540Please respect copyright.PENANALYlXGNE8Um
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANAx88siJp6Hi
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 540Please respect copyright.PENANA9m6PAtylLm
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.540Please respect copyright.PENANAF38itmWMFZ
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.540Please respect copyright.PENANA7VlKqgGPZC
540Please respect copyright.PENANAKRJvuXObxL
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 540Please respect copyright.PENANAbbIRAClLSi
Whoops.540Please respect copyright.PENANA4kOjgrgGqr
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!540Please respect copyright.PENANASR95ALjP02
