Time

Time, it's a funny thing, in other blog posts I've commented, or complained, depends on how it's read I guess, on how I seem to have so little time, like I'm always going from one place to another. Which is true, I often do. 

But now, I've finished Uni for the summer, and it seems like I have all the time in the world, there are very few things that fill up the day. I may have to send a few emails, organise a few activities, or whatever, but that never really fills the whole day. 

They say 'Time flies when you're having fun...' and that I believe, is true. There's lots of times when I'm doing things that have taken up the whole day, yet it feels like I've only been doing them for a few hours. It's funny how people, places, and different activities seem to take time, and make it speed up. 

Yet, there are other times when I could be doing something, and the time seems to go so slooooooooow, I mean, it feels like an eternity for one minute to pass. It's probably just my mind set, maybe I don't really like the task at hand, but it has to be done. 

But, my point is, time, it seems to be going faster and faster. Like do you remember when you were a kid, and it felt like forever for your birthday or Christmas to come around? But, now, it seems to just appear from nowhere. Maybe it's just because I've grown up, well that is probably why. 

But there are other things where time seems to disappear. So two years ago, I started Uni, now I'm chilling at home in what could be my last summer holidays, before I enter the big bad world to work, and whatever else is chucked in my direction. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited to be finishing Uni next year, and I'm excited about where it will take me, but still, it's kinda scary how fast time has gone, and how little time I have to enjoy the summer at home, with nothing too big to worry about.

I'm not complaining about all this free time I have, in fact, it is a welcome break from running around like a headless chicken, and sometimes, I kind of like just doing nothing. However, there is only so much of this you can take. There needs to be some adventure, a story to tell, something that made the summer of 2012 the best yet, that made the hours go fast, and helped me develop a new part of me. I guess that's where my other blog comes in, '50 things to do in 2012', and if times going to keep going fast, I don't have much of 2012 left to complete them. So here I go, to create the memories, and enjoy the summer of 2012. 

Remember, 'time flies when you're having fun' so make sure you have lots of it. There's always a reason to smile, so try and keep it on your face. Whatever you do, time will seem to go too fast, or too slow, so take it in your stride, and enjoy the time that you have.
