That feeling when...

...I look up at the clock after I finish coding the last method required for my [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(game)]Go[/url] Application, the final project of my Java Web Programming Class to see how close I am to the deadline. [b]Five minutes left.[/b] Oh dear god I haven't tested the code I just wrote that morning. I quickly compile and run the program several times, making lightning fast adjustments to fix delightful problems like [i]"Oh dear god why is the game window not popping up when I hit the "Launch Local Game" button?"[/i] as I test out the major different configurations for starting a game. [b]One minute left.[/b] I finish my adjustments, I know the rest of the code works. From the command line I try to recall the command to Jar all the java files and classes needed to run my Go Application. I luckily got it on my first try. [b]45 seconds left.[/b] I navigate to my university's website, log in, go to my class's webpage and go to the submission section for the final project. I load up my jar, tag on a hasty comment to the submission saying "OH GOD NO TIME LEFT!", and windmill slam dunk the submit button. [b]5 seconds left[/b] The screen refreshes. Assignment Submitted: 8:59 AM. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUQ1Y8nPz0Q]HELL. FREAKING. YES.[/url] [spoiler]Technically most of the code is uncommented so I can't call it a complete victory, I'm going to have to go in and ask the professor if I can resubmit the project late without penalty to add comments so he can better understand and grade my program, but I'm not terribly concerned. This is definitely the closest I've ever cut it with regards to turning in an assignment. Anyone else had a similar experience where you slam dunked your work in at the last possible minute?[/spoiler]

  • Nice! I've taken a lot of online classes, but I've never been minutes away from being late, just cut it close with a few timed assignments.
