Preparation
Reading text
Tips
1. You don't need to write complete sentences for text messages.
2. Use abbreviations like LMK (= let me know) or use emojis to save time writing.
3. You don't need to use full stops (.) at the end of messages.
4. Say how many minutes you think you'll need, e.g. I'm running 10 minutes late.
5. It’s good to say sorry and sorry again, but you don't need to say sorry in every message.

I usually try to arrive at time or a few minutes before the appointment time. For me, I undertand that people (include me) can have unexpected events, so I am tolerante when I have to wait for someone. However, if I know that someone usually arrive late when we meet, then I show him/her disapointment about that fact.

Normally, I don't be late, but sometime, the conditions don't help me, so for me, arrive to a place 10 mins later is late for me

Whether I have a meeting, party, or a business appointment, I always try to be there 5-10 minutes earlier. But I have one friend, who is constantly running 20-30 minutes late. It is very annoying, even when she apologizes and explains the reason why she is late again. I feel like I am not important or not respected at all.

I’m normally being late than being on time. I’m always reminding myself that this is not a good personality and that everyone in this world can accept that. But I’m now trying my very best to improve myself as not to be late again. I have once been late for an appointment with my faculty professor that made me feel so bad about it. I think I should cut off any unnecessary thing I usually do before getting out of my home that bars me from being on time with the appointment.
