I had a 10 page essay due today at 8:00 am which is worth 30% of final grade in my english class. Well my teacher is homo and collects assignments at the beginning of class at 8 o'clock, if you show up late 10 mintues and turn it in late, than he reduces the final grade by two letter grades or if you turn it in a class period late. So I was up till the wee morning hours till 5:00ish am, then I figured I would take a short nap, get some sleep.  Well of course my ass wakes up at 8:25am :banghead: I needed to do well on this essay too because I wasn't exactly doing great in english and you need a C to pass the class, but now with a grade reduction down to a C automatically I'm [img]http://forums.maxima.org/images/smilies/gaysex.gif[/img].

Ah jeez, I can't tell you how many times I've done the whole... "take a nap" thing.. I've learned that it's just best to stay up.. then leave immediatly after you've done whatever it is you needed to do and sleep.

For me it's basically impossible to wake up during the first 3-4 hours of sleep... you can put like 300 alarms next to me, ill sleep through all of them.

He was being sarcastic.

But anyway, your fault for slacking on it.
