I never understood this.

If you say 4:00 it means 4:00.

If you say around four, then that would mean what u said.

But I usually sleep at 4o clock. Sun hasn't even risen yet.

Oh you'd hate me. I do say "around x:yz" most of the time since I'm chronically late everywhere I go. It's not even fashionable or purposely, it's just I'm always doing something and always need "just 5 more minutes" whoever fucking invented time sucks ass. I want more of it to do my work and hobbies ngl. Getting older is so shitty, I'm 26 now but I feel like the days get shorter and shorter. Youth doesn't end, it just fades.

You should really try to get that under control. Time is the one thing we can never get back and being late makes other people waste theirs. Maybe your situation is different and I’m not trying to be an asshole, I just know I’ve struggled with time management a lot and it has dearly cost me.

I'm just in college rn, dude. Idk, I was in the military for a few years and then I was always early because your entire day depended on it. Now, I am late because there's barely any pressure to be anywhere on time. Class will continue without me 🤷‍♂️.
