Oh, time change, you are back again.
I still don’t understand you and you are definitely my least favorite calendar holiday. I have a hard-enough time know what time it is already and right when my body clock is adjusted, you take away an hour of my time. That is an entire episode of This Is Us (with commercials) that you are taking away from me.
I am a college student and I prioritize my sleep. It is hard enough to get up before 8 already, now it is going to feel like I’m getting up before 7? No thank you.
Also, I know it is meant to give us more hours of daylight, but if you give the Earth a chance to catch up, it will get light on its own. Why take an hour away from us if you are just going to give it back in November? Also, it happens on a different day every year and the only other holidays that do that are Easter and Thanksgiving and at least on those holidays, I get a good meal out of it. The world doesn’t even all participate and we all share the same sun. If I was vacationing in Arizona and Daylight Savings Time starts, it’s just a normal day. Then you come back home, and you are even more mixed up.
My point is that I don’t quite understand why we feel the need to turn our clocks back in forth twice a year. I’m all for “springing forward” into a new season, but either don’t let us “fall back” or just stop observing the holiday altogether. Time is one of the things we just don’t have control over, so what makes us feel like we need to. I’m going to close now because I’m sleepy. However, for all my fellow anti-Daylight Savings Time peoples, hang in there, November is only 7 months away.
