So we start off similar, and we just get even more similar as time goes by? Well, we also find more differences as time goes by, so it evens out. |

No, you probably wouldn't want to. Then you might end up with a sleep schedule like mine. Which would not be a good thing for me. Not if you like your daytime. I'll have to revert back soon though. I'll probably stay nocturnal till the end of next week, after which I'll shift to a normal schedule. Well, English because my family spoke English. Malay because it was the national language and if I wasn't fluent in it I'd fail school. Chinese because I needed that to order food. I'm amused by that last one. I really am. It's an odd reason, I know. But when all the good foodstalls are manned by chinese people, you kinda do need to know the basics to order. |

I really am. It's an odd reason, I know. But when all the good foodstalls are manned by chinese people, you kinda do need to know the basics to order. That does make sense. But doesn't make it less amusing. |

And how long does it take for you to shift to normal? A day. What I do is just stay up for a terribly long time to reset it, or just sleep for a very long time. The former is more effective than the latter. It's an odd reason, I know. But when all the good foodstalls are manned by chinese people, you kinda do need to know the basics to order. That does make sense. But doesn't make it less amusing. I guess it doesn't, since the premise of learning a language for the sole purpose of ordering food in itself is amusing. |

The former is more effective than the latter. Since I'm not sure how one would sleep for a long enough time, and you know how to make yourself stay up, that makes sense. That does make sense. But doesn't make it less amusing. I guess it doesn't, since the premise of learning a language for the sole purpose of ordering food in itself is amusing. It's probably useful for other things once you've learned it, though. |

Since I'm not sure how one would sleep for a long enough time, and you know how to make yourself stay up, that makes sense. Actually, if you want to sleep for a really long time, all you need to do is set your alarm for every hour or so. Then you'll get up, turn it off, and go back to sleep. I guess it doesn't, since the premise of learning a language for the sole purpose of ordering food in itself is amusing. It's probably useful for other things once you've learned it, though. It should be. But it hasn't proven to be yet. |

But after you've had enough sleep, would that even work? It's probably useful for other things once you've learned it, though. It should be. But it hasn't proven to be yet. Really? That seems a bit odd. |

But after you've had enough sleep, would that even work? It's worked for me in the past, because then you wouldn't need to sleep for a while. Which kinda resets everything. It should be. But it hasn't proven to be yet. Really? That seems a bit odd. It does, doesn't it? You'd think learning an extra language would prove more useful than that. Maybe it's because I don't hang around other Chinese as much. |
