    The title says it all.
    It's happening to me right now. It felt like an hour, but it was actually like 20 minutes. :P

    Too fast for sure!! The years are gone in a blink of an eye. I wish time would slow down so I can just enjoy life.

    Too fast. It seems like last week it was Christmas and now it's June.

    Depends on what I'm doing. Boring instances times go slow like when I had jury duty, 7 hours of being bored. Playing video games or driving to a store or fast food times seems to go very fast. It seems like I'm at the store and it feels like been there for about 5 minutes and when i look at the clock, almost an hour went by

    It depends on the situation at hand. If you're really enjoying something, time tends to go fast. If you're dreading doing something that you have to do, time usually goes slow. It's all in the situation. I've experienced both sides of it.

    I feel like I have lived for 38727874897927872737297 x's infinity + 1 years.....and I'm only 26. XD Time seems to generally go slow for me. But too fast still when it comes to how long I want to spend with certain someone before I die..........

    The speed of time really isn't a concern of mine. . .I pay it no mind.

    The phrase 'time flies when you're having fun' is a pretty apt summation of the relationship between time and my life. Today, for example, I've been up for about 3-and-a-half hours, but it feels like I've been up for 7. If I'm spending time with friends, however, the time will just whizz by and we'll have to leave. The one exception to this is when I'm in the cinema: I'll often be having a really good time, but it'll often feel slower than it actually is.

    But, in general, as I've gotten older, I've noticed that time seems to pass me by so much quicker than when I was younger. Maybe it's cause I'm having such a good time now, but it's probably just age. Ah well...

    Time passes so slow at events I know are going to happen: Appointment, waiting for the show you want to come out as the boring one at the moment ends, credits, waiting for the class to end, tests.

    Time passes like a flash when I'm...doing something fun: VMing, eating candy, playing video games I LIKE, shopping for something you've wanted, Skyping, drawing, after school hours, before school hours, watching your favorite show or movie[they last for like....what seems minutes!], and probably in a site I love and adore.

    Too fast, always too fast. It seems to get faster all the time. I'd love everything to slow down. Even moments I feel are dragging on, I'd like to slow it all down. Time moves way too fast, I don't like it. I'm 21 already. Inside, where time doesn't move at the same rate, I'm still 17 :P

    But when giving an Exam.. it seems speeding up very fast! :P

    In college I would have answered, "too fast." Now that I'm living a boring existence at home, now time seems to pass way too slowly. Because I have absolutely nothing to do, time seems to crawl along at a snail's pace and I wish it would fast forward to the point where I do have a steady job and a social life again. Then it can slow down again.

    At the moment, too fast. I blink and it's the next month already. My days off are even worse, I think I have the whole day, I blink, and then it's 10PM and I have no idea what I've been doing all days. Time should slow down a little!

    When I'm sitting around waiting for something to happen, or when I'm thinking about the little things I'm doing at the moment, everything slows down.
    When I think about the last school semester, or look at things at a bigger scale, it feels like time had just passed by in an instant.

    Essentially, yes, but it varies on the occasion.

    It's sort of inbetween now, but the year seems like it went by too fast. I mean it's already June. There are some days, like today, that go by really slowly. Then there's some that just zoom by. Time in general slips by pretty quickly, considering it feels like yesterday that I was in high school and 8th grade was 6 years ago. Hard to believe that I'm 20 already and I graduated from grade school 5 years ago. So really it depends on the situation at the moment I'm just sitting here on the computer. I'v also noticed as I've gotten older , time slips by faster. This is probably because of age though.

    Kinda a bit slow but only because I really want the future to happen quickly, though if you go back a year from now, time literally did go crazy quick. So yeah, I feel that occasionally.

    I think it usually feels pretty slow for me because on an average day I'm just hanging around without much to do. Of course when I go out then it flies by. I'm kinda hoping the next about three weeks fly by though for lots of reasons ughguh.
