Time travelling?

You know what unnerves me alot during travelling? Especially to places that are in a different time zone from the place I live? It's the feeling that I've lost time.

I've been to Australia and Japan which are in time zones that are ahead of my country's. When I'm there, I keep thinking to myself: It's already 8 pm over here and the sky is dark. Yet my friends are over there, basking in the soft sunlight of 6 pm. What are they doing? How are they spending their "extra" time? Are they going to have their dinner soon? Would I be missing out on something because of the "lost" time?

Weird things to be thinking about, but that's how I am when I'm away in another country -- tightly wound up and worried.
