Gimme Back My Time

Tomorrow is the start of the 2nd week of 2013.  Whoa how fast time flies!  I feel like it's only yesterday that I watched the not-so-happening-new-year fireworks on TV with my lil sis and it's already the 7th.  Sigh.  Oh, yeah, I went to an event today.  It's not a glamour event but rather an educational one.  It was so informative but one negative thing that I didn't quite like, in fact I was a bit annoyed.  It was delayed for almost 30 mins!!  I don't blame the organizers coz it wasn't their fault.  They did stated the exact time of the event but somehow, some people became so selfish  and decided to turn up pretty late.  Worse, some even decided not to come at all without prior notice!!  How selfish was that!!  It was not your time that you wasted, it was other people's time, and we can't have it back!  I'm really disappointed with this attitude.  I remember few years back when some of my foreign friends said "You have to schedule at least 30 mins earlier if you're dealing with Malaysians"!  I feel so ashamed!!  And even more ashamed when some Malaysians are proud of their i'm-on-my-way-la-bro attitude.  Aiseh, don't they know that time is more valuable than money?  I don't mind if you like to waste your time but when it involves my super precious time, then I guess I have the right to be super duper pissed!!
