So I'll see you then, okay?

[Urd]

Even people like myself that stares at a computer all day goes outside to get some fresh air once in a while. Whenever I have to meet someone, I've always tried to be there 10-15 minutes before the designated meet time. I've succeeded in reaching that goal consistently across my brief years of existence on Earth. Why do I do this? Well, I don't want to be late, being late bugs me, big time. I go early even if I know the person or people that I'm meeting with will be late, my cousins are an excellent example. I just think, maybe, just maybe they'll be there early this time, or maybe this time I won't wait so long for them. Yeah...no. Just last week, I had to meet them and I sprinted my way over to the meeting place as I had lost track of time and was able to arrive about two minutes earlier. My cousin arrived about ten minutes after the designated time, following that, my other cousin and my aunt arrived twenty minuters after that (so it sums up to those two being thirty minutes late total).

There's only been a few cases in which I've gone early and the other person also happened to arrive early moments after, causing us to take off minutes before the actual start time. There's also been the similar case in which the other person was earlier than myself.

So, what best describes your view of getting somewhere on time? Do you head off earlier than needed just in case because maybe they'll be there this time? Or maybe you arrive about two minutes give or take around the meeting time, because well damn, we said we'll meet then, so I'll just arrive then! Or maybe you try to be on time, but there's always something between you and your destination that hinders your advancement, thus causing you to be late every single time?

you do realize that since met is 99.99% chicks, they are going to answer "I'm late more often than I'm liked, it can't be helped, it's not my fault!"

actually, i was ranting/humored by this last night.

Early- all the time. I'm late every once in a while- but it always bugs the hell outta me.

Most of my girlfriends arrive late- UBER late even. But my boyfriend is either right on time, or early. Which suits me fine- I'd rather arrive early and have the other person come soon after instead of waiting for an hour....

[Eric]

It's wierd. When meeting up with friends, I usually arrive a few minutes early. When going to work or class, I arrive exactly on the dot or I'm a few minutes late, ahha.

haha... actually- if its class I'm usually just in time. So I guess I'm not usually early for that :S... I don't care much about getting to class early unless the lecture really packed and its hard to find a seat.

If it's something that is time restrictive I'm there early, such as a movie or dinner plans. My classes I arrive maybe two minutes before class starts (and usually leave early :P). If it's not urgent I show up at my own convenience, for instance when someone says "hey let's go here in about an hour" I'll just get there whenever I can.

If I'm meeting people, I'm always there 15 minutes earlier.

Usually, I race into class right on time xD.

/me slaps Eric.

Anyway, surprisingly, I'm always early. I'm usually half an hour early for everything. I guess it's also cause I use public transportation. If I get late for one bus = late for the other = late in general. So I always take an early bus, and well.. just get to my meeting early. :3

[Totchi]

I have to arrive early, or if I have to, at least on time. If I'm late when meeting people, it kind of freaks me out.

But! When I'm meeting up with close friends that I always hand around with, going to the mall or something, it's okay to be a few minutes late.

[Pikachu]

I think, if I'm meeting with a frined outside.. in a mall, movies, restaurant, I'm always early. But if it's a party at a friend's house.. o_o then I'm late. :P Fashionably late, I mean. :P

[Kititt]

I get there when I'm supposed to. I don't like waiting for people, so I generally try not to be first. Specially if I'm waiting for a group. I get there when I get there. But it does bug me if I'm late. Hence my 0 tardies all school year. XD

[Eric]

speaking of late, went clubbing thursday night. we were suppose to leave 10:00, ended up leaving around 1050.

[Kyreii]

I usually arrive early. I don't know why. It's a habit I suppose. (it may also be because I study before class starts so... :p)

[Scarlett Fire]

I'm irritatingly late for everything.
