The official End of the Semester Crunch Time thread!

Sign in to disble this ad
I think I have five different assignments to do before class ends on Thursday. I also have zero motivation to do said assignments.

Who else is screwed right about now?

Oh buddy, you've only seen the surface of the iceberg...

I have a 10-page design report due tomorrow, have no progress done on it. So I have to make it seem like I've done work on my design since our last progress report.

I have to have a 10-15 min presentation on said design, and a professional evaluation of myself due tomorrow at 12:30pm. It's 9:08pm CST here now

Instead of working on it, I'm on TB

I really lost motivation this semester... tonight will be about 2 hours of sleep!

Really feels great when you're done though...

Time to get coffee!

Am I delirious - or do I just not care? Crazy? Man, who cares

I have a 10 page research paper due this Thursday, a 5 page analytical paper due next Friday, an acting scene (theatre class) and required papers such as character analysis paper and scene concept due in two weeks, and final exams for all five classes in two weeks.

I have to make a piece for a very weird combo (Clarinet, Oboe, Piano, marimba, Viola, Cello and Double Bass!), that's for this Friday... Among another piece for a quintet of percusionists... Among some other stuff...

I think I will be in a mental institution by Saturday.

Crunch time mode over here too.


In addition to my other classes and exams, I have an online course in which I've done exactly zero work for. Entirely my fault, I know....but I have an entire semester of a class to do in a week and a half! I have a feeling blood will turn into Red Bull over the next few days.

I'm not currently screwed but last week I found out I had a 2 page typed history essay due at 4th period, I wrote it during 2nd, Biology, and typed it at lunch, with time left to buy food.

I wish I was still in middle school... You could do homework between periods.

Been there, done that, survived that, and actually enjoyed most of it.

Now it's project completion dates, delivery schedules, construction schedules, start-up dates, etc.

Still got bass though!

it's turning out to be pretty managable for me, surprisingly. have a lab report due tomorrow, but it's mostly completed. final in a grad math class that i don't understand the material very well tonight, but oh well. pretty sure i'm already done with one class already, and i'm taking french pass/fail so i really don't care about it.

the big things for me are typing up the research i've been doing (in LaTeX) and getting a third professor to write my letters of recommendation. first application is due ...in a week!

Well, I've got a math test over material that I haven't learned in about half a hour. I haven't been to class for awhile either. I'll probably fail the test, but hopefully I can learn enough to pass the final so I can pass the course for the semester.

College blows.

W00T! I managed to knock out the majority of the assignments I had due. All I gotta do now is rock the three final exams I have next week and I should be golden.
