As you probably know, my time management is... trash.414Please respect copyright.PENANAg2Q02uwEUi
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAgbKHUFMqhJ
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.414Please respect copyright.PENANAC82n6fBStG
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.414Please respect copyright.PENANANDBf1d9B0L
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.414Please respect copyright.PENANAMRgHs21X7m
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. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAyZWYNi6Upo
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.414Please respect copyright.PENANANIGXK4OjfY
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:414Please respect copyright.PENANAO8IzvCcDU6
Summer school assignment.414Please respect copyright.PENANAPh5eDyKNch
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.414Please respect copyright.PENANAvZhf7FaOTk
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.414Please respect copyright.PENANAddR6tsrZXo
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANAqSyzfhfGc8
414Please respect copyright.PENANApKH9dfF2zt
Number 2:414Please respect copyright.PENANASw9N2DH9zy
This JUST happened.414Please respect copyright.PENANAXD0QKY7T1R
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANAl8jJJJs647
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.414Please respect copyright.PENANArTtnTvT11W
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.414Please respect copyright.PENANAZdHEoCfAAT
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANA5nJs0oReGt
414Please respect copyright.PENANAKU2Cs8UC4M
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. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAmc6MdapHd8
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAsm9KbB0oWg
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANAxAq92OoDgn
414Please respect copyright.PENANAIWwXtAJKA0
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.414Please respect copyright.PENANAy8sSvG2r76
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?414Please respect copyright.PENANA1RiKoJLLu7
There's no way that small change could work.414Please respect copyright.PENANA2AJUPXDHEY
414Please respect copyright.PENANASTaMSYDKFq
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANAEUQJriF4bi
414Please respect copyright.PENANAvmHVO84TxO
Number 1:414Please respect copyright.PENANAzhQfdK8bXd
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. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAjgRXqaPbIQ
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANABKSVZQJTHC
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. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAsZraU0nyTI
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. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAnI4WscAQ7J
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.414Please respect copyright.PENANABxF4M7twx2
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.414Please respect copyright.PENANAIoTwGTGl8e
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.414Please respect copyright.PENANAwhglx6jUv1
414Please respect copyright.PENANAZwKlwPHROF
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.414Please respect copyright.PENANAyD2Av2s9Bb
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANAV8nVKhax03
The lecturer was impressed.414Please respect copyright.PENANAzcmKSxRX4t
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAMjTLMysLGk
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. 414Please respect copyright.PENANA9pI2skDWFN
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.414Please respect copyright.PENANAarGL2UdBGe
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.414Please respect copyright.PENANAmQIg2GegZj
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.414Please respect copyright.PENANAtWpHVTa1pT
414Please respect copyright.PENANAFihZzUacgU
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.414Please respect copyright.PENANA2MISML0N8T
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.414Please respect copyright.PENANAJXN5YBJ6d1
Crap.414Please respect copyright.PENANA7VbXEmsOki
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANAw8WtBSs1BB
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 414Please respect copyright.PENANAMhYJlB2hgd
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.414Please respect copyright.PENANAn7wD8Gasl6
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.414Please respect copyright.PENANARWhJGM27Ca
414Please respect copyright.PENANAMCiVSdlrsd
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 414Please respect copyright.PENANAfvTlS6Oz1M
Whoops.414Please respect copyright.PENANAybOKFucOq4
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!414Please respect copyright.PENANAJbKusSZlw7
