“once you’re in the workforce, the years sort of blend together" I noticed this after my first year of full time work and ever since then I have been actively trying to fight it
I think the main thing that slows down time for me is mental effort, often exerted by change. When a semester ends in college, the next semester starts a little slower than the last one ended. Start a new job, first month slower than the next. Travel to a new country and 3 days feels like 3 weeks. I think that's part of why I've had this manic cycle of 10,000 half-baked hobbies that come and go rapidly, it forces me to slow down time

so glad to read your writing again (and that you're doing well)!
actually trying is scary, but it's the only thing we have
for me, rambling is the start for publication hehe
