So I've been in England for almost two weeks and my body has not adjusted to the time difference. Yes kids, my circadian rhythms are out of whack. I think the best evidence is that I can't fall asleep until about 4am here and waking up any time before noon here makes me groggy and cranky (there is a five hour difference, so for those keeping track at home and without an abacus: 4am England = 11pm New Jersey and noon England = 7am New Jersey).
If anything positive can be said about my out-of-whack body it's that I finally managed to get myself to wake up early and get to bed before midnight (sorta).
Thankfully all of my classes are in the afternoon and the library is open until 10pm (which I must say is a bit aggravating-- at Maryland they were open 'til 11pm), so my two main stops outside of the local Somerfield's and any of the countless bars/pubs I frequent aren't directly affected.
For now I must go spend the rest of the day in the library. Apparently there is a lot of reading to do in graduate school.
