So much for the land of the rising Sun

auyongtc | August 29, 2006

Once again today, awoken myself this morning to blinding sunshine that got me panicked. OMFG! Am I late for work? Did I miss my alarm? Only to realise that it’s only just 6.10am. Gargh, this must stop – I should start wearing sleeping mask to bed…

So yeah, these days the sun rises at 5.10am and by 6am, it’s as bright as 9am back in KL, which is near the equator line. I’m still not used to it, many a times I panicked for nothing. And sometimes worse, I go back to bed, only to panic again for nothing – thought I really missed the alarm…

These days coming to early Autumn season, the sun sets much earlier, nowadays around 5.10pm – which is kinda sad, coz by the time I get off work (should I ever manage to get off work on-time, that is) it’ll be dark, gloomy, depressing.

Somewhat, growing up near the equator makes one ignorant about the dynamics of sunrise and sunset. Always assumed that around 6.45am = sunrise, 7.45pm = sunset.
