dodging a bullet 

Highschool/College slang meaning you didn't do an assignment/essay before the due date and something happens that pushes back the due date, which gives you time to do it.
person one: Damn, I'm lucky, I didn't do that assignment and it was due today, however school was closed. I don't know why it was closed, but I dodged a bullet!

person two: Damn, I wish I was lucky like you -.-

Face it, if dodging a bullet didn't exist, we would fail classes. everyone forgets an assignment now and then.
