Today, I submitted my big assignment to my teacher at 1:55pm. The deadline was 2pm. She rejected it, because her watch read a few minutes after 2pm, and she maintains that the time on her watch is the "real" time. FML

Today, I turned in an essay after staying up late to work on it. I was away when the teacher assigned it, so I'd asked my friend what the subject was. It transpires that she'd given me the wrong one, all because she was mad at me for not returning her pencil. FML

Today, I got detention from my teacher for not handing an assignment in. It would be understandable if I hadn't handed it in a week before it was due. She won't listen to reason. FML

Today, one of my classmates asked the teacher to postpone her presentation because she had to study and the teacher happily agreed. When I approached her, the teacher started yelling at me because postponing deadlines is irresponsible. I just wanted to make sure we didn't need to bring our book. FML

Today, I did a 3 hour long assignment for school. I was bored so I gave it the title "F***ing Assignment for a F***ing Teacher." I went downstairs only to discover that the printer was out of ink. So I sent it to her email, then I realized that I didn't change the title. FML

Today, I asked out the girl who always looks and smiles at me in class. I was surprised when she rejected me until I found out she was actually always looking at the clock behind me, and smiling when class is almost over. FML

Oh God you're from my country. This is such a typical thing for Singapore. Speak to your course manager. Do everything you can.

Guys... guys. Who said it was done on computer? Anywhere I went to school up until college at this point, we never submitted files over the network or internet. Paper doesn't carry a timestamp. I do believe this may have been a face to face interaction involving a paper assignment.

You should have sent it in earlier. FYL, though. Teachers can be such assholes about assignment deadlines.

OP lives in Signapore. I'm pretty sure that in the far east of the world, it's currently winter or spring and they came back from their winter break like a couple of weeks ago.

Where I live in Australia you have a number you can call to know what the exact current time it is in your state right down to the last second, I would of grabbed my mobile called that number and put it on speaker phone. Is there something similar available where you live?
