WHEN IT COMES TO SUBMISSION

“I haven’t finished my assignment”, “Am almost done with typing”, “Imagine am supposed to submit my assignment at 8.am but editing still awaits me”. All this is about meeting deadlines.

Most students get confused when it comes to meeting deadlines. I wonder if you have ever undergone this yourself. From my experience I think you would not like to face what I went through.

 You could imagine waking up late in the morning and to your surprise you have received a text message in your phone. A friend has texted you to remind you that it is submission day. Panicking and tension begins immediately. It rings into your mind that the other day you had done it halfway and procrastinated it to the following day something you never did. Now you are in a trap you don’t know whether to put on your clothes without having a shower or begin rushing to the printing room and later proceed to hand in.

On reaching the printers shop it’s full to capacity, everyone wants his or her assignment to be printed. Gosh! This is a disaster, you are like,” where should I begin?” the session is about to start and is being thought by a ‘when am in stay out’ lecturer, no excuse to neither give nor room for explanation. You start hoping from one printing room to the other restlessly. At time wishing you owned your printer but to those who have it, the printer may cease functioning and fail you during your last minute rush. What will you do? Crash the printer or that laptop when it refuses to boot up and your assignment inside?

Broken memories

Mostly in such scenarios, one could forget his or her valuables at the printing shop or cyber café just because of tension and failing to finish his or her task on time. This is disastrous, disappointing and causes extreme losses. Sandra a victim had once forgotten her flash disk and phone at the student center cyber cafe. Tony a student in the school of human resources had forgotten his bag, just with the hope of meeting deadline.

Statistics shows that such students due to tension fail to concentrate in class the whole day. Their memories do crash and the next thing is a stressed being. Be on the watch, ensuring that you finish your assignments on time to avoid last minute rash which has got hiccups.
