the one with the punctuality

what has happened to the value of time? has people totally disregard punctuality as part of their principles? i have experienced it way too much of such situations especially when i start university life. people take it for granted that others will be late and so in the end, everyone turns up late. aren't we supposed to be the future pillars or generations of singapore? we can be late for small meetings that are held in school, what makes it so sure that we wouldn't do the same thing in the future when we are out in the working world? don't give excuses that when we go out to work, we will change because it's different outside. habits will form and it will still be the same case when we go to work. so please, stop all this nonsense and be on time, even when meeting your friends. it's a good principle to abide. i can never say that i am never late before, but at least i try to be punctual on most occasions. let's cherish the value of time once again.
