Time; Treasured by others, taken for granted by few

This semester, you may notice that for some of the lectures, I did turn up late, maybe by 10 minutes or so.. And, truthfully, I could never feel good about it. I felt really guilty. By chance, most of the time, the lecturer has not arrived yet... Luckily...
However, I hate to say this, but I have made myself clear and obvious that I hate to wait!!! Unfortunately, this is one thing that I have to face on daily basis. SHAME on you PROCRATINATOR!! If you don't value your time, please consider others. The thing is, you do not have the slightest idea of the pain that one has to endure to wait for only you!! If your mind is preoccupied with the unneseccary pressure that one has to bear while waiting for you, you would never be late. Sadly, though, you and your unpunctuality are two inseparable entities.
I just do not understand why can't you be at least punctual for only once? You never did. I wonder why.. What makes it so hard for some of us to be on time?
And because of you failure in meeting the agreed dateline or to be there as PROMISED, it has, in anyhow painted a bad picture of not only you but also the rest. Malu la oi.. Dah janji sekian jam, and one of us is not there yet and orang yang dijanji pun dah nunggu, camni ya??
If u need time to prepare urself, please, by all means, do!! Knowing that u need 3 hours to iron your baju, 2 1/4 hours to take your shower and 4 1/2 hours to watsoever on earth, PLEASE, please get it done since crack of dawn. Learn to manage your time well.
And, pelikla that these type of people can't emphatize with others. If they do, likewise, they will never be late unless something unexpected happens. But, out of so many broken promises and so many lateness, I am so much in doubt that they have been actually being hampered by the unexpected. It is just in them...
And it frustrates me some more when people say, "Ilek la, dak orang bukannya awal pun." Can you imagine what would happen if everyone is sharing the same mentality? Who would then be there on time? Huhhhh.. What a culture..
I am tired of waiting.. And please, please keep your words... I may be welcoming you with a smile, but, deep inside.. only I and God know if you ever do it again.. And I think others would never like the apprehension of waiting too, ryte?
