For those who are consistent in their work, they will never have a chance of enjoying the excitement that last minute work brings. Obviously, you know who I'm talking about, and he always finish all his tutorial for the following Monday to Thursday in the weekend, leaving the weekdays for the Friday tutorial.
Last weekend till today was by far the most exciting period. The 2 (usually 1) assignments were due on Monday and 1 today, but throughout the weekend, I had no idea how to do them. MIPS assembly language programming, Physics Tutorial, and JAVA programming, and especially MIPS, even after cursing everything related to that, I still couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do.
So the fateful sunday came, and off i go to enjoy the weekend without accomplishing anything. Back at home at around 9 on sunday, I started a short discussion with a coursemate, and finally, found the way to start the MIPS program, when i get stucked, I'll switch over to Physics since both were due on Monday. At the end of the day, both assignments were not finished.
With unfinished assignments and unforseen reason, I skipped the first 3 lectures of the day.This makes my first lesson to be the MIPS lab. I managed to finish my Physics tutorial with some help and handed in by 3 before going for the lab. With more help from the TA, I finally managed to get the correct program out at the expense of 2 additional hour to the normal 1 hour slot for the lab.
That's 2 down, 1 to go. I managed to reach home at around 10pm after having dinner out at BT Timah. After settling down at my PC, it's already 1030pm. That will leave me 3.5hr before sleep. Very obvious not enough to finish the program, since some pro guy said in the forum that he took 5hrs meaning i'll take 10hrs. And knowing the question was some variation of the most difficult question in the term test, it's really GG!!
The programming continued in school after having lunch with chubbs. Time was 1145am, 4.25hr before the deadline. Of the 4.25hr, i only worked for 3.75hrs, meaning a total of 7.75hr. Got a decent program out which should pass some test cases but having managed to get all the cases. give me another 2.25hrs!! Too bad, can't ask for extension as the program is submitted online.
Man.. Isn't that exciting!? If it's not, I wouldn't have written so many things. Go try it out yourself.
