Losing Track of Time

Image
Time seems to allude me quite often. I perceive that I only just started an activity until I realize that four hours have passed. A clear instance of this happening is merely yesterday. I had just received a new video game and was eager to play it. The weekend, as of then, comprised of many activities with friends, such as going to the movies and meeting up with old friends from middle school. It all was enjoyable but left me with no time for the aforementioned game I was excited to play. Sunday I was free to finally play the game and I was quickly addicted. Before I knew it, five hours had passed! Of course, I lose myself in many activities I find enjoyable, including other games and Netflix. In addition to Netflix, I also watch a lot of YouTube. It's very easy for anyone to start with one video and before they know it, they fall down a vast chasm of unique videos and clickable titles.
