Imagine you're sitting in a boring class and watching the clock. Time feels like it's moving really slowly, almost like each second is stretched out. It's because your brain has nothing to do, so it notices every little detail around you, like the ticking of the clock or the movement of the sun outside the window. When you're having fun, time flies by because your brain is too busy enjoying everything! So even though a minute feels like an hour when you're bored, the actual time that passes isn't changing, it's just how your brain perceives it.
Examples
- Time feels slower at school because there's not much going on around you.
- You think a class is two hours long, but it’s actually only one.
