I still can remember when I did my travel from here in US to Philippines (by birth country) two years ago and the travel from Philippines to here in US (about five years ago). That was whooping 16 hours or about travel with only one stop, in Manila and the other one is in Taiwan and Manila. You know the time difference of California and Philippines, it is 15 or 16 hours (depending if it is Pacific Daylight *15 hours* Time or, Pacific Standard Time *16 hours*). Now what is the effect? Jetlag! Yes, you read it right. Our eyes get used to the sleeping/night time and the day time on the other hand. Let say, it is daylight here in US and night time there in Philippines. Since our body clock cannot adopt easily to the time zone we often need some sleeping solution of that. Some tend to buy online or at drug store where sleeping aid is easily available just to get the eyes sleep when all of the people are sleeping. You know, we have to adopt to the surroundings too. :-)

Back to the days when it was my first day in the new time zone, it is very hard for me to sleep in their night time and wakes-up during daytime. That is hard, nope that's underestimate, it's very hard. When it comes to body clock, that is such a whew! I can't say more. I am not complaining though. :-)

For those who have families and friends who wants to know with the American Time specially Pacific Standard Time(PST), ST(Southern Time/or some not), Nothern Time, Eastern Time(ET)all who wants to know when the Daylight Saving Time begins- it's this coming MARCH 08, 2009(SUNDAY) . I just want to inform you fellas for the 1 hour forward counting, as what I had said it is called "Daylight Saving Time". So watch out for the workers, students, employees and all who are concerned especially those don't have automatic watch to change it's time. For those who have AT&T mobile phones, don't worry we are lucky because it will automatically change the time. heheheh... And maybe some cellphone providers too or maybe all. Check out if it change automatically of the date I mentioned on my first sentence in here. Or else you guys will be late . And for those folks in Philippines, the 16 hours ahead of time in here is back, no 15 hours anymore. And also for religious Roman Catholic believers, this is the second(2nd) Sunday of Lenten Cycle which is called as a Holy Name Sunday . Don't worry folks, this is an accurate information for I have a very reliable outside source and I dig it though it's sweaty.. whew! but of course worth keeping. If you want to know more about this, please leave me a comment below and it's my pleasure to answer all your questions for further info. . By the way, Daylight Saving Time ends on All Saints Day- November 1, 2009 . After November 01- is the start of backward 1 hour counting then.
