Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man wealthy, healthy and wise

Apparently there's daylight savings time here.

All my life, I thought it was only something that was done in the US.  

Plus, my phone and television set didn't automatically reconfigure their times so I was hella confused for like 3 hours this morning.  I had to do some extensive research to figure out if there was actually a change in times or something was messed up with my computer.  

Ok, cool.  I get an "extra" hour to sleep.

Only, when I was younger, my mom used to always use that ploy on us.  She'd be like, "Great, tomorrow we pull the clocks back girls, you can sleep one more hour in the morning!" 
but then technically since we slept one hour later, it didnt really matter and I was still tired in the morning and it was still hard to go to school.  
but i think that was mostly because i didn't like high school to begin with.  
or junior high for that matter.
or actually, any year after like 3rd grade when we moved from Montessori to, "real school."

except did you know that the time switching is in fact DST ending? it starts in spring, ends in fall. people always say oh it's daylight savings time, but really it's just normal time. fun fact.
