"Time flies when you're having fun."

Do you think that this saying is true? Personally, the last five years of my life have flown by, and it's all down to the fact that I've been keeping myself busy with enjoyable activities. I believe that time does indeed fly by when you're having fun, and before you know it, years of your life will have disappeared.

Do you agree with this? Please discuss.

Yeah, time flies when you are enjoying yourself.

It flies when you're keeping busy with anything, even if it isn't fun. At least, in my case.

Sadly, yes. Thus, my days of browsing EoFF take incredibly long.

Yes I agree.

When you're having too much fun it seems like you only spent a little amount of time on it..same as when you're busy.

I agree fully. Whenever I talk with my girlfriend on the phone whole three hours fly on by without us noticeing. Or me noticeing anyways.

Yes. Obviously. That's why you should try not to enjoy yourself so you live longer, like that guy in Catch-22.

Yeah, I think it's true. Most days at work drag on.. but my weekend is over in the blink of an eye, it seems.

Time flies when you're lying there doing nothing. When I try to go to bed time seems to triple it's speed.

Yes, and way too fast, sadly. It's good when you need to kill time tho'.

Actually, that sort of depends. If you're asleep, time does fly, but when you're awake and doing nothing time goes incredibly slowly.

This isn't nessesarily true. Time flies period, when you're talking months to years anyway. The last almost 4 years of my life have flown by and I've been doing nothing and been completely miserable.

If your talking about daily time however (minutes and hours), then its only if your occupied. I remember in bootcamp, we'd go PT for like 2 hours before morning chow, but it felt like it was more like 10 minutes. It was ANYTHING but fun, but damn it really went by fast.

So time (daytime) seems to fly faster based on how busy and occupied your time is...and years don't actually fly, they just seem to have when you look back...or atleast from my experiences.

I also find that days go by more quickly when you have a deadline approaching... or something that you don't want to happen coming up.
