The reality of it all hasn't started to settle in until the past couple of days, but holy f*** dudes and dudettes. Talk about a dream coming true. I don't even know what to do with myself right now I'm getting so excited!

Actually, going east isn't that hard to deal with if you get a lot of sleep on the plane. In the last year, i've made three trips to korea or japan, and each time, I pulled an all-nighter before my flight, slept through most of the plane flight, and found myself waking up at around 6 or 7AM local time for the next two weeks with no problem.

coming back is the hard part.

Although honestly my sleep schedule is already weird as f*** so I shouldn't have trouble acclimating too much.

I've found going east to be worse. But maybe that was because I was only ever dealing with a 2-3 hour difference.
