Eastern Time Zone in King of Prussia



My time is brought forward exactly 12 hours difference to Singapore's time. It feels easier to relate back to Singapore. But not exactly that much of a difference. But I lost 1 hour! Still, in November 2nd, i'll have another 1 hour back.
My days are now as long as Singapore's. The sun sets at 7+ now. I like it. It used to set at 5+. Oh it turned Spring yesterday. Spring!!!!!!!! *happiness. looking forward to better weather
