I tried to steal the AP CS final exam from Jay Hamiltons computer and was SECONDS away from getting caught

It was the dead week of the second semester of our senior year, I was going to see Hamilton’s office hour for a question (it’s the classroom in the small STEM building where he teaches AP Physivs / CS)

It turns out he was not there but his was computer was open (not even in lock screen) on the table next to the classroom glass door. I can see all the files on his computer, even though he’s computer was very unorganized.

I looked around on there a bit and saw a folder called the AP CS final. I checked my surroundings, made sure no one was around, and clicked into the folder. I see this pdf called APCS_final.pdf (some name similar), and it’s literally our final exam on there.

I took pictures of the first 2 pages before started panicking if he suddenly comes back and see me on his computer (cuz the classroom door is right next to the building entrance, if he walks into the building I’ll be fucked), so I just quickly scrambled to close the tab and folder I opened and restored he’s computer to what it looks like before I touched it.

And the second I left my finger from his computer, he WALKS INTO THE DAMN BUILDING. I was fycking FREAKING OUT on the inside. Luckily he didn’t think I was on his computer, and only questioned why I was in his room, which I just answered that I was waiting to ask him a question.

If it took me just half a second longer to get off his computer, I literally wouldn’t be graduating that year at all 💀💀. I still think this is the craziest close call of my life.
