Wow, wow, wow. I think its safe to say that my sleeping habits are going to be permanently impacted from my time here. Here's the run down...First off, being in china is weird enough to get used to. add to that the fact that i never sleep long because i am with Natlie in early morning, taking naps during the day when possible, and then going out at night and waking up early again. To add insult to injury, the Chinese don't do daylight savings time...or time zones...so its like 5 hours of daylight all the time in western china...they would.
If this weren't enough, I am basically going back in time for the longest April 3rd i am ever going to experience when i fly to Honolulu in another two weeks or so, I have no idea if i will sleep at all while im there. Then i will return to shanghai for about a month, just when i have time to adjust to this eastern and erratic sleep schedule again we are going to Hong Kong in may, so i will likely wear myself down there. ( also i would like it noted that spell check for mac just suggested "thong" for hong kong") Then, of course, I will leave for Texas, for a month. That's gonna throw my rem cycles for a loop again. As soon as i have garnered some sleep normalcy back in the good ol' us of a, i will then fly to Vienna to meet portia for a little over a week where we will have full days of choir rehearsals, more tiredness, also during this time we may or may not go to London to chill depending on how natlie is rolling with the Vienna kids. Then portia has to go back to San Fran during that time to deal with green card issues before she can return to shangahi, so im taking natlie with me and meeting portia in san fran...THEN...im sliding into home in atlanta...for a few hours, before i start my first day of class presumably, the next morning. Someone slap me, i need a reality check, who is this woman and why is she so incredibly and unnecessarily nice to me all the time? Portia...adopt me?
I really feel like my internal clock is going to explode.
