  2. Delay is something I don’t appreciate. It is a disrespect for another’s time. These days everything is delayed. Projects blame it on resources, resources blame it on traffic, traffic blames on roads not complete, etc

  3. She was late for the bus, but got to it on time because of a delay further up the road that held up the ones ahead of hers.

  4. delaying the point
    of interesting thoughts
    that like
    to leap into the shower
    like fish who don’t know how to fly.
    find them,
    put it all together, then
    make it steady.
    use some glue,
    but it all falls apart in the driving
    snow,
    dis inte grating
    because you wait.

  5. My delay is nothing but your advice.
    This thinks as I am but I am not you.
    Guys run by the noise and seem to find the speed or fight. It is a silly game. It must be played.

  6. I don’t know what to write about delay. I don’t like being late. I don’t like it when others are late. I don’t like being delayed for any reason. But that could be the mental illness in me, too. Someday I will be able to handle delays properly. But for now, no. Be on time. Be early.

  7. Airports always have delays. But I’ve only ever been to one 4 times in my life. On the way to and from Spain, and Germany. My first time on an aeroplane was fun, I was waaaay too excited :D. But I was only 9 at the time so I’m sure you can understand.

  8. this is mildly ironic because the reason i am writing this is to delay the process of climbing into my bed. i just removed my contacts, but instead of going to bed i am DELAYing! i should go to bed now so i can either surf or do math problems tomorrow morning, it doesnt really matter which (probably not surfing because i am gonna wait to go with someone else).

  9. there is a huge delay in my writing because I can’t stop editing. Editing has made me afraid of just letting myself write. I can’t get anything out because i’m always censuring myself. the delay, then is making my passion reality.

  12. the train hadnt turned up and the cold wind sent shivers down her spine. she had been waiting at the station for 45minutes now and all she could think about was his reaction when she turned up at his door soaked to the bone and hair a mess. she hoped being late didnt matter to him.

  15. My whole life has been one big mixed bag of ideas, thoughts, ethics, morals and opportunities all put on delay to spend time with you.

  19. Procrastination was something that I always excelled in, in high school. I would put off doing some report or another until the morning it was due, and get up at 3 am to complete it, rather than plan and organize ahead of time. This seems to have followed me to the current level of my life as well. There are things that I know I need to do, but for some reason, I continue to delay their execution.

  20. getting to work late because traffic is bad is such a bummer…a delay. A delay in schedule can change your whole day. Why do we allow delays to affect us so…is it our society.

  23. Er is me gezegd een minuut lang over één woord te schrijven. Ik weet niet zo goed wat ik meer moet schrijven dan dat ik over één woord moet schrijven, maar vreemd genoeg heb ik toch besloten te voldoen aan de opdracht en te schrijven. De reden hiervoor is me onbekend. Ik moet een minuut volschrijven, dus blijf ik continu opschrijven wat er als allereerst in mijn hoofd opkomt. Steeds probeer ik de zinnen langer en langer te maken (hier typ ik dus bijvoorbeeld langer EN langer, in plaats van enkel en alleen het woord langer, zodat de zin langer wordt) zodat ik meer tijd heb om na te denken over wat de volgende zin gaat worden. Ik denk dat ik nu wel zo ongeveer een minuut lang getypt of geschreven heb over ‘een woord’.

  24. There’s nothing like your flight being delayed to put you in the mood for a terrible trip.

    As it turned out, the trip wasn’t as terrible as the 24 hours spent trying to sleep on those uncomfortable airport chairs (a failure on everyone’s part), but it was still pretty terrible.

  25. the term delay is always used when something is not going according to plan .. when something you wished for is not happening … when something you hope for is not comming… the word delay is strong and soft… the word delay explains a lot. everytime we use delay, something somewhere turns astray.. everytime we hope for best, delay will take all your distress

  26. The street was a mess, cars everywhere. She clutched her cup of coffee and, in a blur, she was gone without delay. Into the depth of the chaos of the black and white city.

  30. I was waiting at the train station. As usual. She was late. As usual. Just when I was about to head for the exit and leave, she came rushing through the crowd, big smile on her face and juggling two huge suitcases. Finally.

  32. today i was delayed by one hour. the train only came at the time when i was meant to go home. being delayed is one of the most annoying things in the entire world, waiting for nothing, for something that should have been and gone. you should have been in a different part of your life but no, delays are always trouble. no harm done, except time.

  33. Procrastination is the scielnt killer. It just creeps on you. Delay is the sister of procrastination.

  34. My flight got delayed again. two days I’ve been tryng to leave Iraq and go on leave. I miss my family, I miss my friends. I miss the love of my life. I need her as much as the flowers need sun. I can’t wait to go home.

  35. Delay?? I asked.
    I don’t care if there is a delay! All I want is to leave this freaking town with all these memories. And now I’m standing here at the station and this guy tells me that the train is delayed?!

  36. Delay is not an option. We can not wait, we have only sixty seconds before the next word, one hundred seconds before the next cough and the next heartbeat happened five seconds ago. Rush forward and let the world decide, green shifts to red very quickly

  37. I have a delay in my thought processes. It’s constant. I never think. Just move. Some consider it a disease. How can I prepare myself if I never consider the outcomes of my actions? I consider it a blessing. If there was a delay before my actions, then I might rethink some of my obviously life changing decisions. And yes, a few have ended horribly, and left me full of regrets. The majority though, well those were the greatest experiences of my young life. I never want to say the words “what if?”

  39. The time passes
    so
    slowly
    when one is
    waiting…
    for a specific occurrence.
    Impatient
    And the delay is
    unending
    when one is waiting for a nebulous something.
