I remember as a kid, my grandmother telling me the older I get the quicker time appears to pass by.

In grade school the day would last forever. Now that I'm in my 40s the day just flies by. I don't get the logic behind that but I think there's some truth, the older I get the faster time goes.
 
Too slow right now.. my summer has been a blast but I still hate being at home. I just want August 30th to come so I can move back to school.

The last month and a half of school after spring break went by so fast... (maybe cause i was drunk like 60% of the time LOL)

Yep- same for me. Time passes very quickly now.
 
Depends on how fast you're moving...

... and since I'm not traveling anywhere close to light speed, I'd have to say normal.
:p

EDIT: Damn!, gotta remember to check if no one else has already had the "great" idea of joking at Einstein's expenses....
 
Since going to college it is going very fast, next week is the end of my course, I can't believe it is over already. God knows it will be slow when I start work ;)
 
time is moving so slow for me... i am hoping that these years would fly by... so i can get to creating that game studios i've always wanted to create.. but noo. i have to learn about how history works... it is just about 8 days from summer vacation and time is moving extremely slow.
 
Since graduating HS, everything has been in super fast forward.

Graduated HS -> Turned 18 -> Earned B.S -> Turned 21 -> Earned M.S

All in what has felt like a blink of an eye...HS prom still feels like yesterday.

Next thing I know, my little cousins are graduating high school, babies I've known since birth are now in middle school and I'm only a few years from an age I thought was old when I was a teenager...30.

Blah.
 
I don't think it has ever moved faster for me than now. It is very hard to believe that 19 months ago I hit the big road.

A year ago tomorrow that I was fired, 17th Marks the day I was re-hired. It seems like just a few months. Two more of these super fast years and this truck is mine :)
 
It's hard to believe I'm going to be a senior in college in just 3 months. HOLY S**T. 3 months. :eek:
 
Much, much too fast. Pretty much after high school, time just flies by. College and friends long gone...

It's hard to say... it's slow and fast.

Right now, it feels slow... I have a lot to look forward to (spring break, panic's new album..) and it's taking looong. Graduation seems so far away... is it June yet?

But then I look back, and it's like damn... only 70 days left?!?! Wow.....


And then my day in general is slow and fast. While I'm at school it's slow... then I come home, pop open the Macbook and it's suddenly midnight and I've done no homework :D Senioritis is a bitch.

Pretty much my sentiments exactly... But its only 5 more days
 
If this makes sense:

-My days are hell, I feel like they never end.
-The year fly's by, I can't believe that I just finished my junior year of high school.
-The months are normal, not too fast or slow
 
i dunno but everything has been faster lately. it nis screwing up my school work, thinking due dates are days away. i also forgot to send in my work application because i thought it was due weeks ahead and then i realized i only have 12 days before i graduate (middle school) left...
 
I remember summer breaks were like for ever when I was a grade schooler... Why do I feel time passes by faster as I get older?
 
Absolutely flies by for me.
I work full time, have a husband, 2 kids aged 3 1/2 & 17 months - there are NOT enough hours in the day for me.

Time only moved slow for me when I was an unemployed full time student - and that's been more years than I care to admit :eek:
 
Time goes by too fast for comfort; yesterday, I was 7 and got my first pocketknife. Seems to go faster the older I'm getting - and hate to think what it'll be like when I'm 40.

The sad thing is that time goes by so fast for me, and yet the memories fade so quickly.

Life seems to go by faster and faster, there just doesn' seem to be enough hour's in the day,i remember back in the day (blows dust off memories :p ) when i was a kid, we had the 6 weeks summer holidays from school, it lasted forever, but nowadays, that kinda period of time fly's by, especially when sat at my Mac. Occasionally on a sunday when i'm spending family time taking the kids out or we take a walk in the park then that day seems long but generally whoosh time goes past way too fast :( i guess it's our modern lifestyles compared to how it used to be............

Yeah. It's really sad. I remember being a kid and playing outdoors all the time. You step out of the house on a sunny afternoon, and just play outside, and the day is long, and fun. You come in, have a glass of lemonade, play with legos inside or something, and then just chill until dinner is ready.. .ahh okay enough. I'm making myself too nostalgic.
