What makes time go by quickly or slowly?

When I was very young, just waiting in a que with my parents seemed like an eternity, but now 10 mintues in a que will fly by in comparison to how it felt when I was younger. When I sit and think sometimes, 30 mintues can go by and I feel very surprised because I felt like I had only been sitting there for 5 minutes. When I use the internet time goes by REALLY fast. I have meditated for an hour, the time went by very quick as well, however after meditation I feel much more fresh and alive - unlike when I sit and think or use the net. Also, certain, um, natural medications that I have tried in the past have made just a single song on the radio seem like it went on for ages.

I want to learn how to control how I experience time...I thought about it and perhaps I need to focus on all the changes that are occuring in my surrounding environment, every noise, movement, breath etc, so that way my memory will have more things to recall about the past, which makes time seem much slower.

Answer:
the easiest way to move time slowly or fast is fall in love and see what's will be happen.

You can't contol time, only your mind.
If you are very busy doing something that you like, time goes by quickly. Natural "meds" alter the brain so your aren't getting a realistic sense of what is going on.
Doing something that you don't like, of course makes time last for ever!
How you experience time is all in the mind! lol

i think when a person has a fast lifestyle and has no free time times go faster
i think also when ur doing somthing that u love u won't feel that time is going by

i think the busier you are then you dont notice the time so much. if you are doing nothing and waiting around thats when you notice it more. so keep your self busy and dont think about the time.

wow, great question.

For me times goes slower when i move faster, times goes fast when im going slow, like waiting in traffic seems to take ages.

when your having fun!

i agree with vanessaoz... exactly wahat i was gonna say
