Does Time Usually Go Fast Or Slow For You?

Share your experience.. Does it go slow for you because you are bored a lot of the time? Does it go fast because you are usually busy?

Comment with whether you perceive time as fast or slow and your opinion of why that is.

The reason why this is a good post to answer is because through others experience you can get better grasp of how people perceive time and maybe even learn to control your perspective of it by observing what causes others to perceive it the way they do.

Often too quickly when it's something 'fun' or constructive - though there are rare instances of a full day where it doesn't completely drain away horrifically. Those are my favourite days, usually involving music or some other creative task.

But impossible to do in this cold.

Time can drain really quickly when running about trying to get stuff done as well, but it's the really tedious crap that makes time stand still. The watched pot never boils.

@SW-User True boredom massively slows perception of time maybe because the mind is honed in on that one thing.
