Now I am sure I am not the only person who has felt this. You get up in the morning , you go to work or do household jobs etc, and the day just seems to drag forever. You sit down infront of your computer, start surfing, emailing, myLotiing etc, and whoosh the big hand on the clock starts spinning faster than ever. WHY o WHY !!! I'm sure you all know what I mean.....

Haha, yes I know what you mean. Time seems to fly by so fast when you're busy doing something you enjoy, yet it drags on when you're at work. I was just thinking about this on the weekend. I had so much to do and time flew so fast that I didnt have time to do it all. Seems like Im always running after more time.

I'm a bit of a heavy smoker so there is no chance on me running after time. I think maybe time is catching up on me. Have you ever been in the situation when you think to yourself, I can do that later it's only early, and then when you get around to doing whatevere it was, you just dont have enough time to do it Oh well enjoy your time, time is precious to all.

Absolutely it flies so fast you wonder what the heck happened to time. It must be the great interest we implore into the surfing that allows us to lose track of time. As when we are bored we have a tendency to account for every minute and second.

Yeh, and when we are bored, boy do those hours, minutes and seconds last forever and ever I could not agree more.

Yep, I sure do know what you mean. More so now since I have 2 classes and I work at night. So most of the hours of my days are occupied. It's just like "clockwork"(no pun intended.LOL) I get up in the morning, prepare for my morning class, attend my morning class, have lunch, attend my afternoon class, get a snack or early dinner, go to work, study/do homework while working if I can, close up shop, go home, then sleep. The next day is just the same. This current routine of mine is from Mondays to Saturdays. It makes me more thankful when Sunday comes or even Saturday nights cause that means I can stay up as late as I want and sleep off the next day as late as I want. I guess time just flies when you're having fun or have tons of stuff to do.

Yes I surely do know what you are talking about. When I use to work the day would drag but as soon as I took a day off from work the day would rush right by and especially if I was on the computer for any length of time. If I decide to sit at the computer for just an hour it always ends up 3 to 4 hours later that I realize the time that is gone. Its very strange but I guess once we go on the computer we end up in internetland and can't seem to escape. LOL LOL LOL

i agree with you... time can really flies very fast especially when you are busy doing work... and without you realising it, it is already night time again... but i still prefer to be busy rather than doing nothing as the time will go really slow then... take care and have a nice day...

oh yes indeed its only when we are on the net and really enjoying ourselves then here at Gold Crest the intercom blares, patsie time for' lunch and I am thinking it was only 8am a few minutes ago. but go to your doctor's and the time crawls along. then you are called and stuck in a cubicle and again the minutes just crawl along.I guess when you are enjoying yourself it races but get into something that is not fun and the time almost stops. lol lol lol.

I find that there are alot of times that days do fly by.No sooner have you got up then it is time for bed again.I find that there are days that no sooner have we eaten mid morning we are then eating our dinner.Where as there are like you say other days where as it never seems to be night time,as the days just go soo slowly.

I have experienced what you are talking about. The only thing I can think of is that time seems to fly when you are doing something you like. When you are working (unless you love your job) or doing something you don't enjoy, you can't wait for it to be over. That just seems to make the time go slower!

When you're enjoying what you'Re doing, time goes by so fast but when you'Re doing nothing or doing something you don't like, you keep waiting for time to pass, therefore making it seem longer than usual.

Hi haddowz: I know exactly what you mean and it's really weird, specially when we need the time and on the opposite, when you are waiting for something you don't want, times seems to be slower than in a normal situation. It's all about perception. When I was a kid I think time was really slowly, but maybe this was because I was waiting for Christmas to come xD. ALVARO
