Default I is a proper student now!

Not only do I now have an NUS card, but I just handed my first assignment in at one minute to the midnight deadline!

Frankly, at this stage, I don't care what mark I get. Just getting the bleedin' thing out the door with enough words in it was achievement enough.

One minute to the deadline you say.....a real student would have cut it closer than that.

My finest hour at uni was handing in an assignment with almost exactly half as many words as it was supposed to have, and getting bonus marks for "brevity and economy of words" Just because I didn't have time to add in all the handwaving and flannel.

I remember those thoughts all too well! Luckily I did quite well, I'm sure you will too. Just think only another 50 or so to go!!!

Tut tut tut, thats the wrong attitude. You should have left it a week after the deadline and not cared about anything, i should know, im in my fourth year of evading taxes.

When i was at uni the place you handed coursework in shut at 2pm whether there was a que or not, if you were not there before 1 the que was so long it wouldnt get handed in.

I still have an NUS card somewhere, i kept it as mine was valid for 10 years ????? and the week before i finished uni i accidently broke it and got issued a new one Never actually found somewhere worth using it though.
