Model A:
Last May, I didn't finish my writing homework for English. Before class, I went to the bathroom and put on some powder that made me look pale and dabbed really light greenish shadow around my eyes so that I looked tired. I went into class and told my teacher that I'd been working on my paper that morning, when I suddenly got sick to my stomach and puked over it. Well, she certainly didn't want to see the proof, so I got another day to “rewrite” my non-existent essay.

Model B:
I said, “I'm sorry! Last night, my family and I were enjoying some quality time together, and we wound up going out for a Disney movie Stuart Little II. I got so wrapped up that I totally forgot about the homework. Can I turn it in tomorrow?” It worked like a magic. What teacher could resist?

Model C:
when I showed up to math class without my paper, I remembered that a friend of mine had been taking a new medicine that was making her really drowsy and decided to steal the excuse. When the teacher asked, “Where's yours?” I got very serious and said, “You know how I've been missing class a lot? I have to go to the doctor. And I just got this new medicine that makes me really sleepy. So last night after school, I fell asleep at 4 p.m. and didn't wake up until this morning. I'm so sorry!” My teacher was too uncomfortable to ask me for details, so I got away with it!
