Is there any easy way to get the pins that hold the pads in the calipers out. im stuck and i think i messed up the the clips. i have to go to work in 4 hours help

they should just slide out...............

unless you did not remove either the single pin retaining wire or the the two small pin retaining clips (whichever case you may have) first

but if you did remove the clip(s) first , try using a small punch and hammer

and remember to clean your pins with a wire brush and lubricate them and the caliper sliders

In the past I've taken the caliper apart. There's 2 bolts that hold the caliper bracket onto the caliper, remove these and cut the brake pad retaining pins. Then you can work them out. Most auto stores carry the replacement hardware.
