As you probably know, my time management is... trash.206Please respect copyright.PENANAc4jhy7a87R
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 206Please respect copyright.PENANA3xRZMCNk23
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.206Please respect copyright.PENANAc1XKzuzsjm
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.206Please respect copyright.PENANAe0v7MMvCps
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.206Please respect copyright.PENANAmvXzRwKhgW
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. 206Please respect copyright.PENANA0i0MMQL6Ey
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.206Please respect copyright.PENANAK4JjncJU7f
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:206Please respect copyright.PENANAH9BHpa4eVv
Summer school assignment.206Please respect copyright.PENANAb3Mf1LtxiN
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.206Please respect copyright.PENANAiIqtYGKhQj
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.206Please respect copyright.PENANAY9qm8E8ibX
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANACQYW3P15ES
206Please respect copyright.PENANA4kVT3DIT3M
Number 2:206Please respect copyright.PENANAFaaWRPs6kV
This JUST happened.206Please respect copyright.PENANA8cBUcdsrYK
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANAbZ5ftqSEgL
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.206Please respect copyright.PENANAefRkSyLvhh
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.206Please respect copyright.PENANAOY37a2y6UP
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2A5LumsUO
206Please respect copyright.PENANAlVa5WlPfyA
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. 206Please respect copyright.PENANAGKLEBzvgfL
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 206Please respect copyright.PENANAxsbpPhgCKX
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANAFVYuM2JBly
206Please respect copyright.PENANAOu2c7g37lc
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.206Please respect copyright.PENANA5h8iBGbDr6
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?206Please respect copyright.PENANAjMrTeShV2F
There's no way that small change could work.206Please respect copyright.PENANAwiyoMfm9mT
206Please respect copyright.PENANAaUwk9mMjso
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANAoild5uIwvW
206Please respect copyright.PENANAEIWG7L7pGO
Number 1:206Please respect copyright.PENANAhewohgDIDt
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. 206Please respect copyright.PENANAhzMHqinxmL
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1RjBm4Yx3
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. 206Please respect copyright.PENANAEkzozTV9Sf
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. 206Please respect copyright.PENANAAefiiatY6v
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.206Please respect copyright.PENANAdVRwquIcl8
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.206Please respect copyright.PENANAm0liuinVQ6
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.206Please respect copyright.PENANARbKfxvVjH4
206Please respect copyright.PENANAufbbeaLFBR
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.206Please respect copyright.PENANA7t1SnV14ZY
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANA9wTq7u5orA
The lecturer was impressed.206Please respect copyright.PENANAZG8Jt7igVd
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 206Please respect copyright.PENANA9hRFA0iPOb
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. 206Please respect copyright.PENANAUcKLf6iH9o
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.206Please respect copyright.PENANAicVRZU6DKZ
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.206Please respect copyright.PENANAyeuFtMSB5R
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.206Please respect copyright.PENANAxMNIiurasd
206Please respect copyright.PENANAvxG5gIPsrv
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.206Please respect copyright.PENANAf1SioJPj7n
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.206Please respect copyright.PENANArXFOv5q3Au
Crap.206Please respect copyright.PENANA7jyB5MxzU4
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANAddXsWfCsLG
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 206Please respect copyright.PENANAxNEq7ThjjE
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.206Please respect copyright.PENANAVZXpQUQtwe
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.206Please respect copyright.PENANABkEHZYEHOY
206Please respect copyright.PENANAPIUfjiGz3m
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 206Please respect copyright.PENANAwFVcalQgRl
Whoops.206Please respect copyright.PENANArMjZsvKPM6
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!206Please respect copyright.PENANAI396OJuAvb
