was thinking today why, as we get older, does time seem to go by faster. i remember as a kid, i rarely ever knew or cared what time it was during the day. there were landmark times, like the time i had to get up for school, when recess was, and what time my dad got home from work but other than that i never looked at the clock unless i had to. i dont remember ever sitting in class in elementary counting down the minutes until a specific class was done or 2 hours before bedtime thinking to myself that that wasnt enough time to get done what i needed to do. it didnt matter how long the class was when i was in that mind state. i was just there. in it. i miss that ignorance.

now in present day i find myself checking the clock several times with in a given hour sometimes. when class will be done. how long it is until my next 15 minute break. how long until my pizza is done. how much free time i have before bed. i dont know why this is. based on how i feel when i check the time though, my best guess would be fear. i dont know of what though. not death. not an end. just fear of not enough time or too much time. pretty irrational
