indeed, what a strange stereotype about foreigners not having umbrellas, lol. yeah, we just soak wet , whenever it's raining.

I often walked into classrooms at an engineering school at the same time with the teacher. Some other guy had usually been waiting there for 30 minutes. I thought he was the stupid one... I saw no reason to be there before the teacher arrives so I timed my arrivals to be very close to the minute the class would begin and not tens of minutes earlier... my approach was more risky, I admit, it would only take a small problem to force me come late to the class whilst my friend had 30 min. to waste.

I found your videos very interesting :)
I have a friend who's always 5 minutes early to a meeting and I'm always 5 minutes late, and I always feel so bad for making her wait but she doesn't seem to care lol.. maybe she's used to it by now hehe ...but I really should get my act together xD

I'm going to struggle with that.. I'm often late even if I wake up 3hrs before work.. I have ADD and I tend to get distracted so easily.. I often am late or juuuuust right on time. :\

30-40 minutes isn't something NOT to be frustrated about. 30-40 minutes is ridiculous!

@phantomreaper2010 which is understandable. but not everyone has that opinion or sees it that way. i had a friend who was over an hour late and didnt see to mind at all while the rest of us were fuming.

hey Chris i think the "planning your time thing" is on one hand a country character but also a personal thing! i´m also a person that likes to be on time and i ´ve never been in japan. i live in germany, and all the things here are on time too e.g you ´ve to start to work at 9 a.m. you better come 8:45 a.m to work!
the people that aren´t on time here we consider as lazy.

@liberty1211 yeah i agree. it's a personal thing. although i find it's more prominent in general in japan. it's more common and is more of a culture thing rather than just personal such as in other countries. : )
