As much as I try to be right on time for various events, I can't help but find myself running late. Whether it is meeting up with a friend for lunch or picking someone up, I am constantly in a state of five minutes late. A friend from home has coined this as "Caitlyn time" meaning that if we make plans for 5:30, she expects me at 5:40. I always challenge myself to actually get there on the time we agreed upon. Although I find myself late for meet-ups with friends constantly, I am always five minutes early for important things such as class, job interviews, work, and meetings with professors. I can never find the balance between being early and being late.

1. When you are "on your way" you are most definitely not on your way.

Realistically speaking, you are probably just beginning to put on your makeup.

2. You are extremely good at coming up with excuses as to why you are late.

3. When you go out with friends, they tell you to meet at 7:15 when they are really meeting at 7:30 because they assume you are going to be late.

4. Your friends are actually surprised when you show up at 7:15.

5. You have tried changing the clock in your car to run fast, but it rarely, if ever, works.

6. You set multiple alarms to ensure that you wake up on time.

7. You always seem to think that you can get ready in 10 minutes or less, but it never works out and leaves you scrambling last minute.

8. When you actually show up on time, your friends are super proud of you.

9. The times you are actually on time until traffic happens are the absolute worst.

10. Queen Clarice is your spirit animal.

11. You always think that you have more time than you actually do.
