Yes, into my 7th month already.
I feel its because Korea is becoming more normal for me. When I first arrived in Korea, the year seemed to feel like a life time. A week like a month and yet now, it flies by.
Its not a wow experience anymore when everything seemed to be brighter, longer, etc.
Its same ol same ol and the days fly by. Also just old age, others explained it on daves better than me before. When 10 yrs old, 1 year is 10% of your life, when 100 its only 1% of your life.

| Exactly the same for me as the above post. Except for me I'm still feeling a wow experience whenever I get chance (weekends etc) |

| I think time flies by faster as you get older...I've tried explaining that to my American students in the past and they could never quite get it. They would complain at the start of school because they were in school, but i reminded them that Christmas would be here before they knew it. Then after Christmas they would complain and I would tell them spring break would be here before they knew it, etc. |

| Wait until you start counting down. Months become weeks that turn into days. |

| While I was in Korea I felt like i had been there forever and wondered if I would ever escape. Especially last winter, it seriously felt like a whole year of winter. The time has absolutely flown since I got back to the US though. |

| Time seemed slow for me last Spring, but the Summer flew by. It's already halfway through October with only 2 months until Christmas. Today is mid term exam so no class which is a nice quiet break from the normal hectic schedule. Time flies when you race the clock and stay busy to keep up with responsibilities. It also flies when you are having a good time. I think my 2 weeks vacation flew the fastest of any time in my life. |
