we need a definition

As some people have realized that i always do my assignments at the last minute, i like the pressure of wanting to complete everything at the last minute because you cant be complacent at that crucial timeline but today i got a whole new meaning to "last minute". the story goes that an assignment for one of my subjects is due this monday and just this afternoon, one of my group members decided this was the only good time to do start with te assignment out of the four months we had during the semester..just brilliant!lucky for me, i already made an outline for the assignment and also penned a few words.so i think its time to really define what "the last minute" really means.

people always use the phrase" the last minute" (for those of you who think its not a phrase i suggest you call up your engish teacher and ask him/her)refers to the critical moment of a deadline when one trys to overcome the pressure of a looming deadline.so it may refer to the a few weeks before the deadline, a few days before the deadlin.the "last minue" phrase ends when it comes a few or very very near the deadline like for say a few hours before or shorter.when it comes to that point,it isnt called the last minute anymore,its called the "crunch time"..i know i sound like an english teacher but hey,maybe im wrong or maybe you cant just understand because of all the "philosophical" explanation..so i'll just stop her to stop you guys from being confused..if you have any questions please do keep it to yourself..Ciao
