Time is weird. I’ve changed things up a lot in the past few years and I’m having much more fun. The few years before that seem like nothing. But now time is simultaneously so much faster (I guess more exciting, dragging less), yet so much longer (I guess many more unique memories).
Time being much faster yet much longer is exactly how I feel when I’m having fun. I might not notice how time passes (i.e. it’s much faster), but I can fill this time with so many positive emotions and memories that it feels like I spent days doing something because of the density of those feelings. When I’m bored, on the other hand, even an hour can feel like forever, but at the end of the day, there is nothing that I have accomplished, nothing to remember, so the entire day feels empty, as if it had never happened and the 24 hours of that day just poofed away.
