To those who grew up in America and are recent expats, I have a question.

If you still find ways to watch American sports live, do you ever feel like you are living your day in reverse?

I think that is what I am feeling like today. It feels like the climax (watching the AEW pro wrestling event) of my day has already happened and now I don’t know what to do with the rest of my free time today.

Normally back in America, watching the big sports event or whatever of the day happens late at night starting at like 8pm or so. So it’s an exciting and fun way a ton of people like to end their days. Watch the big event then go to bed because nothing else can top that drama and excitement for the day.

Well now that I’m here in Taiwan, if I still want to watch all of those American sports live then now I’m starting my day with them and after they are over I’m left with a feeling of ok well what to do next and I end up coming up with nothing because nothing is as exciting as what I just got done watching.

Just wondering if anyone else can relate to what I am currently feeling today?

    Yeah, I watch my NBA in the morning with coffee. East Coast games occasionally air at a reasonable time of the night but, if they don’t, I sleep and watch them in the daytime.

    Except for West Coast NBA playoffs … wake up early in the a.m. for those.
