Ope, I had a few of those projects. Typically for me they were group projects where I was the only competent person in the group at writing in English or at doing our major. I always told people that I could do any one part of the project, got given the engineering portion, then wound up having to do the whole thing last minute. And thus a night without sleep where everyone bailed when they either decided they couldn’t really help or had to fly home.

But hey, at least my senior capstone wasn’t like that, it took two of us barely sleeping for a month to get it done on time despite making decent progress all year prior…
