  1. 01I Was Late for Class Every Week

    Hi, everyone. I'm a second-year university student in Toronto. Last semester, I was late for my nine o'clock class almost every week. My professor even made a joke about it. Today, I'll share how I fixed the problem.

    Hola a todos. Soy estudiante de segundo año en una universidad de Toronto. El semestre pasado llegaba tarde a mi clase de las nueve casi todas las semanas. Mi profesor incluso hizo una broma sobre eso. Hoy les voy a contar cómo resolví el problema.

  2. 02The Problem

    My mornings were chaos. I pressed the snooze button three times, then rushed to get dressed, couldn't find my keys, and missed the bus by one minute.

    Mis mañanas eran un caos. Apretaba el botón de repetición de la alarma tres veces, luego me vestía a toda prisa, no encontraba mis llaves y perdía el autobús por un minuto.

  3. 03The Real Cause

    Eventually, I realized the real cause wasn't the morning. It was the night before. I went to bed late, and I left everything for the morning.

    Con el tiempo, me di cuenta de que la verdadera causa no era la mañana. Era la noche anterior. Me acostaba tarde y lo dejaba todo para la mañana.

  4. 04Solution 1: Prepare the Night Before

    So, my first change was to prepare the night before. Before bed, I pack my bag, choose my clothes, and put my keys in a bowl by the door. It takes five minutes.

    Así que mi primer cambio fue prepararme la noche anterior. Antes de acostarme, preparo la mochila, elijo la ropa y dejo las llaves en un recipiente junto a la puerta. Me lleva cinco minutos.

  5. 05Solution 2: No Snooze

    Second, I put my alarm on the other side of the room. I have to get out of bed to turn it off, and once I'm standing, I don't go back to sleep.

    Segundo, puse la alarma al otro lado de la habitación. Tengo que levantarme de la cama para apagarla y, una vez que estoy de pie, ya no vuelvo a dormirme.

  6. 06Solution 3: Aim for the Earlier Bus

    Third, I stopped aiming for the bus that gets me there just in time. Now I aim for the earlier one. If something goes wrong, I'm still on time.

    Tercero, dejé de intentar tomar el autobús que me deja allí justo a tiempo. Ahora intento tomar el anterior. Si algo sale mal, igual llego a tiempo.

  7. 07Conclusion

    In conclusion, I haven't been late once this semester. A good morning really starts the night before. If you're always rushing, try changing your evening first. Thank you.

    En conclusión, este semestre no he llegado tarde ni una sola vez. Una buena mañana de verdad empieza la noche anterior. Si siempre andan con prisa, intenten cambiar primero sus noches. Gracias.
