It would be quite nice if someone told me
as opposed to letting me think I'd gone mad
(Edit: apparently most of what I've said in this post is complete rubbish... goes to show how much I know about time changing and my sleeping pattern. No, it's not light when we get up... I found that out this morning when i threw open my curtains expecting sunlight and instead found darkness and a few stars. No, we don't get more sleep, we get less. Yes, I know even a baboon would have known this.)
Afternoon blog readers, lovers and haters!
So guess what?! The clocks went forward, which I think means I get an extra hour of sleep? Although it does mean I have to go to bed early... so actually it means I get the same amount of time to sleep? I think? Would someone explain this please?
What I have noticed though, is that on Heart FM this morning they decided they were going to accidentally say the wrong time, causing me way more confusion than was necessary... Apparently they apologised straight after but I'd changed over to listen to something else instead by that time!
Now I know, deep deep down, that the clocks changing is a good thing, it means it's now officially light when we get up and light when we get home from school (which sucks because it means if I need to run down the hill to catch my train on time I don't get the usual darkness which until now was very useful at keeping my identity secret). However what happens to all those animals in the world (like my dog Sirius) who have internal body clocks? They know exactly when they should be fed and won't shut up until we've fed them at this time! I'm currently locked safe in my room so I won't be able to hear him begging for his food an hour early, which sounds incredibly mean of me but it's true! After a while he does get used to it, but for the fist few days he doesn't quite understand it!
Another crazy thought just popped into my head, they were trying to make us go forward by two hours at one point weren't they? Meaning that right now it would be... five in the afternoon? What an awful waste of two hours! I know that we would have all been asleep, unless you're some crazy party animal who stays out until two, not some sad freak who can barely keep her eyes open past 11 at night. Of course I'm not talking about me here... ok. I lie, I am!
Ah heck, I still have an essay to do which I only just realised about... sorry readers but I have to go and write essays inside, while wishing I was outside in the sun... someone trade places? Pretty please?
Anyways love to you all

Sorry but no. We LOSE an hour of sleep :)
ReplyDeleteIn spring the clocks spring forward. However, in autumn when the leaves fall down the clock falls back, ergo at this point we gain an hour because we get to 'relive' it.
So basicaly, today was one hour shorter than normal, you get it back in half a years time though! Hope this helps :D
