The annual grumbling fest for day-light saving

I know day-light saving change has already kicked in for 5 days, it is repeating every year and neominen has already talked about it.

But the truth is, I still cannot get use to it - it’s 7:20pm right now and there is nothing outside looks like 7:20pm. (well, maybe except the fact that all shops are closed…) Also, it seems like time is running much faster than it should be, I slept at 4 something this morning, and it did not feel like 4 in the morning at all.

So, how long does it usually take you to get over the “time difference”?

    I work on a tight schedule. All i did was set my clock/watch to an hour ahead and it’s all systems go. Simply no time to marvel at the wonder of a sun-lit 8pm.

    Agrhhh… Daylight savings almost feels likes jet lag. I’ll probably get over when I catch up on that one hour sleep I missed this week.

    Geez why couldn’t they delay it after the VCE exams… that 1 hour could have meant a huge difference… Thats if I actually studied :P

    Never. Since they force us to change our clocks twice a year!

    This’s some sort of governmental control keep them in their place control tactic.

    Revolt!
