As you probably know, my time management is... trash.408Please respect copyright.PENANAbVSiKzDtNn
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 408Please respect copyright.PENANAOKJExpTWzU
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.408Please respect copyright.PENANAqXzXXaLqVS
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.408Please respect copyright.PENANAkh71oiiCGq
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.408Please respect copyright.PENANASQatAuFH74
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. 408Please respect copyright.PENANAmzSxrINQpm
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.408Please respect copyright.PENANAO7gKge6UyV
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:408Please respect copyright.PENANAZosX5taeQy
Summer school assignment.408Please respect copyright.PENANAu6juRTQuCK
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.408Please respect copyright.PENANAQDw4y7jLuW
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.408Please respect copyright.PENANATS9LPtJbn1
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAR6guOEpSho
408Please respect copyright.PENANA0sca7JFUNM
Number 2:408Please respect copyright.PENANAuqJI2MoBDM
This JUST happened.408Please respect copyright.PENANAc9UrK8rvKi
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAZYN2hsgpFV
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.408Please respect copyright.PENANAL1ZOMDdcVl
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.408Please respect copyright.PENANAsx1fDnmovK
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAa25JKXGs0y
408Please respect copyright.PENANAJmeOYVqqF9
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. 408Please respect copyright.PENANA2GtHZGtiqI
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 408Please respect copyright.PENANAEmob1Iv5rs
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAqcfwK3oXaJ
408Please respect copyright.PENANA2LSdTPqT06
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.408Please respect copyright.PENANAOTEeDaL90Z
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?408Please respect copyright.PENANA6mZXpvzUOp
There's no way that small change could work.408Please respect copyright.PENANAgXXrMSDSCd
408Please respect copyright.PENANA4KqTrrmb4O
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAt1er1dYWGU
408Please respect copyright.PENANAFeHUucRuyZ
Number 1:408Please respect copyright.PENANABQMIxCJksy
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. 408Please respect copyright.PENANAreGYiCbBk7
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAsXiWWnex1L
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. 408Please respect copyright.PENANA5Kx0tiNh5E
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. 408Please respect copyright.PENANAU2YFYhGeSS
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.408Please respect copyright.PENANAg0OkceizMe
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.408Please respect copyright.PENANAOalndHMRkX
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.408Please respect copyright.PENANA1zaEvJOizV
408Please respect copyright.PENANA33Gi7r2crV
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.408Please respect copyright.PENANA1bmzbKMlRt
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAFQQScijqdA
The lecturer was impressed.408Please respect copyright.PENANAjep33jqBIe
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 408Please respect copyright.PENANA2k806EmVUu
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. 408Please respect copyright.PENANAq9KlK4reco
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.408Please respect copyright.PENANABoSJ2c7816
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.408Please respect copyright.PENANAmTrIC9QFyn
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.408Please respect copyright.PENANAHQchfjWW4t
408Please respect copyright.PENANAeMCdecC5bD
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.408Please respect copyright.PENANAwwGR8d4b4M
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.408Please respect copyright.PENANAKKLTaMm7JD
Crap.408Please respect copyright.PENANAVOFDu1UhD5
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANAzWzTSMfYxI
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 408Please respect copyright.PENANALQerb5uN2P
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.408Please respect copyright.PENANAr3odk70YUD
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.408Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ph7lzCoo1

To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 408Please respect copyright.PENANA5saNYQRXaG
Whoops.408Please respect copyright.PENANAseedBRTCVo
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!408Please respect copyright.PENANA3nAROxiKvX
