In about 10 hours we are all going to lose an hour of sleep. Man, that sucks.

Discuss why you like/dislike losing/gaining and hour of sleep.

[Jewbert]

I left my wall clock the same when we had the last time change so I don't have to worry about changing it. Tee hee. The sleep thing doesn't bother me

Like a lot of people I love gaining the hour in the summer (extra hour asleep ). The only thing is, if we lose it again in the autumn then I am really not gaining anything in theory, just the hour that I lost previously

Daylight savings time is not so bad. I don’t even notice the sleep loss anymore as all my clocks change automatically.

[Black Flame]

I don't really mind losing an hour of sleep on the weekend since I just sleep in anyway. If it was a weekday though, I would be furious(school + less sleep = very pissed off).

They're throwing a bunch of standardized tests on juniors the day after it changes.
Great timing, guys.

We've got some modular tests too on Monday. Doesn't really seem all that bad to me though.

Everyone is going to be late . Especially because this year its a week earlier than the years before . We should just be like the other countries who don't use daylight savings time .

I know. I dont see any good point of having daylight saving time except I can use it as an excuse for tardy.

Well they made it earlier to save more energy. Daylight Savings time this year ends on November 4th, not the last sunday of October as usual. I think when there is more daylight in the year, they'll save energy or something, idk

has anyone else read the news articles about how this is anticipated as a mini-y2k?

The theory behind it is so the farmers could get in more work in ,,, it is also so you could save energy during world war 1 and 2 but yeah I know who cares I want my sleep lol

[bjquick]

[foogie]
