No, there is no guarantee to order.  Events are independent of one another,
and they may occur in any order.  They may typically appear in one order or
another, but there is nothing to say that it won't change in the future.

That depends upon what you mean by 'correct'.  You're certainly welcome to
react to particular orderings in any way that you like.  However, you reacting
to a particular order does not mean that events that happen in a different
order are somehow wrong.
