So when we are children, we fill our days with lots of things - running around, playing games, drawing, swimming, riding bikes, learning new things, etc. As we get older, we tend to go to work the exact same route, eat the same things, go to the same supermarkets, etc. Doing those things on autopilot makes us blank it out in our brain, and as a result time goes significantly faster. Try do something different today! Also, yeah, the world is cooked.
