<p>For those of you who graduated or are very soon to, Does it feel like time went by very fast or very slow during your duration of HS?</p>
<p>Well I graduated a little over a month ago.</p>
<p>Anyways, the only part of High School that ever felt drawn out was that period between the time you apply to college, to the time you receive your acceptance letters, and if you got into a school you wanted to, it seems like an even longer wait.</p>
<p>I played football throughout HS, so that kind of made things go by a bit faster, in fact there were moments when I wish I had more time for training, etc etc.</p>
<p>when you are going throughn it, it doesn't seem too fast. but when you are at the end of the year and especially as a senior, you look back and it seems like just yesterday you were walking into the school as a freshman. so, yes, it does go by fast. enjoy it!</p>
<p>I thought my junior and senior years went by sooooooooooooo fast. Sophomore and freshman years, not so fast. lol... Overall though, it does seem like just a month ago I was wandering around the high school totally lost as a freshman. lol... Now I'm off to California for college where I'll be another confused, lost freshman. lol</p>
<p>I dropped out after junior year and am going to college, so I guess I count...
Definitely freshman year went by really slowly, then sophomore year went by faster, then junior year went by just like that. It's kinda like whenever you go to a six-week summer camp, the first two weeks take forever and the next four go by really fast. I guess newer experiences mean you pay more attention to stuff.</p>
<p>My brother has this theory that we experience each year of our life as a fraction of the years we've already experienced, so we experience year 1 as 1 year, year 2 as 1/2 year, year 3 as 1/3 year, etc. So I might be 16, but I've already lived about half of my effective life.</p>
<p>you're 16 and you're going to college? wow...what college?</p>
<p>Caltech 10 char.</p>
<p>high school went so fast i don't even believe i graduated</p>
<p>High school went by soooo fast for me. To me, it seems like a was just a freshman and then--blink!--I graduated. Of course, I had my slow moments (like the beginning of every school year), but once the end of the year comes along, it goes by super fast.</p>
<p>Senior year went by reallly fast. Maybe that was due to the lack of classes I took and the easiness of the ones I did.. (:</p>
<p>I thought it went by slowly day-to-day (as in, "Ugh, how many more periods left in the day" and "The weekend seems way to far away.") However, it absolutely flew by on a larger scale- I still remember freshman year like it was yesterday (so cliche, but also very true), and senior year was just a big blur.</p>
<p>high school just flew by...</p>

<p>Eh, that would be partially true. Just think of it as this:</p>
<p>Every year for the rest of your life should seem like it went by faster, b/c it's a smaller fraction/percent of your life. For example, when you are 10 the year that just went by was 10% of your life. But when you are 20 the year that just went by was 5% of your life. Obviously 10% of your life should seem like it lasts longer than 5% of your life, even when its the same duration.</p>
<p>For me, my last 2 years flew by and my first 2 dragged on.</p>
