Time is relative isn't it ? Sometimes you feel seconds for hours or conversely ?

As LL Cool J so aptly put it in Deep Blue Sea, "You touch a hot frying pan and a second can seem like an hour. Get your hands on a hot woman, and an hour can seem like a second." I suppose true credit is due to Einstein for this quote but I would have never heard it if LL didnt throw it out there.

To me time is the opposite of what I want it to be. For example, if I'm taking a test, and I'm not doing so well, I would want time to go fast, but it'll go slow. Or when I'm with friends and we're having fun, I don't want time to go fast, and it ends up going fast. Time is weird.

Here is something to tickle your brain jackjagger, since time seems to move differently for everyone this could only mean everyone's brain works differently correct? But knowing how powerful of an object your brain is does your brain speed up the process of things if time seems to be going faster? Heart rate, body healing, how fast your body processes food ect? This is gonna get confusing so bear with me. If one hour felt like five would this mean that your body acomplishes five hour worth of work in one hour? Or if five hours of playing mario or surfing myspace only felt like one and your mind and everything else would move slower? Sound kinda crazy to me but some food for thought. and just to add a little more if your kept your mind constantly entertained and five years only felt like one would your body develop only one years normal amount? i know this is unrealistic but kinda cool to ponder on let me know what you think

I think it depends on what your mind is focusing on that's makes things seem longer or faster even in slow motion......

I have thought about this a lot and I came to one conclusion. Time is the measure of movement. People don't realize it but everything is being moved and effected by something else in some way. A time piece is suppose to be move steadily. But the time piece is very small and can be easily effected. Think of it like this, if a human was watching everything around him move really fast including the clock and other people and he was standing there not aging that fast or thinking that fast time would be moving faster. But if that person was thinking fast and moving faster but everything else was staying the same then he would be moving faster not time. I dont believe that it is a hormone that cause that running time effect. I think that when a person has anxiety they have are analyzing whats around them much faster giving the effect that less is happening with the amount that has been thought, but in reality they have just thought faster. If you would say I wasn't thinking though, yes you were. Your brain was sending you feelings based on what it was seeing, hearing, and feeling. As these feeling signals became stronger and more freqent you mind thought the same number of pulse was the same as the same number of seconds on a clock and it wasn't the same. You calculated this because when you usual twelve minute pulse count was up it was still running time.
