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’m usually on time, don’t like to be late and have to wait people late, but I know that unexpected things happens and I’m capable to lid with this. It’s important in that cases to explain for the other one that you will be late and say sorry.
But few times this happened to me, because I prepare my self for appointments.
It’s this, organization and compromise.

I'm a perfectionist, therefore I don't often come late at any appointment whatsoever, but like everyone else, sometimes I have some unexpected problems like traffic jams, feeling sick, or just because of my alarm doesn't work as I want to. In those cases, I have to admit that I had broken my golden rules and feeling really terrible toward myself. Still, the most important thing is I had tried my best to achieve the ideal goal.
