have you ever felt like your day should b more than 24 hours?....i know some people think it probly is way to much cuz they spend their day working but if we had more hours there would b more time to do something than work all the time and thoseof us that can sleep much all the time would have a little more time to sleep and might not feel that exhausted all the time... what do you think? should we have less than 24 hours? is 24 hours enough? would it be nice to have more than 24 hours in a day? ALSO if you decide more hours would b nice tell me what you would do with those extra hours :)

I often think that I could use a few extra hours. I'm not good at managing my own time, and even when I'm not busy, I always find that I didn't do everything what I planned for a day. With a few hours more I could finish everything I wanted, or sleep a little more.

Haha, same here! I keep trying to make a schedule, and when I see that I can't keep up with it it's even more disappointing

hahaha it really is more disappointing when you can physically see what you need to do and what you were not able to do. i would have thought that it would make me want to do it more and try harder to get it done lol but it doesnt seem like it works like that most the time lol.

i agree!! i am very bad at managing my own time i have even tried to write myself a list with times that it needed to b done by and i think i did worse with the list handy than i did without it lol.

Happy people usually feel that time really flies, you see. One day is so quick for them. On the other hand, sick people feel that one day is dragging. It is so slow as if time didn't shift.

Yes I felt that since years. Now I slow down, have a kind of scedule what to do when. I do way less as before but still run out of time, I always find something to do. The good news is I am never bored :-D

Sometimes I feel like adding up at least an hour or two when I've got so much thing to do. You feel the times runs really fast that you'll just be surprise you're not even done with the chores/works but day is ending. But during days without much work to do, I would wish that I can pull time and make it shorter.

I like our time the way it is now. But I do feel sometimes that I am catching with time especially if I am busy at work and there are still many chores to be done. But sometimes I want the time to move fast if I dont have many pending work. I guess I am a bit workaholic, I like moving I get bored If I am not doing something at work.

Im kind on both sides of needing more hours in the day but then again on the other hand need less hours in the day. I need more hours in the day cause i cant ever seem to get everything done that needs to bo done in one day. But then on the other hand i wish there were less hours in the day because i need to get more sleep. I cant never get enough sleep i am always tired and have to work all the time and take care of my family and deal with there appts and so forth and so on.

i understand where you are coming from. i rarely sleep ne more and i am always feeling tired. i also need the extra hours just to have the time for everyone in my life and take care of my grandma and be able to do the things around home...hey with extra hours i might even b able to add in some relaxing time that i dont get now lol :)

With the current situation I'm in, it wouldn't hurt to add one or two hours. I am really swamped with a lot of things to do and my deadlines are tight. Plus I still have a lot of personal things I want to do and I feel that the time I have isn't enough. Those extra hours I'll have would really help me in achieving those goals much more earlier. Besides, if we have longer hours in day, in some sense, we would age slower (in terms of year count)

I think about this often. I think it would be nice to have more than 24 hours in a day. But then I'm sure we would all find something to do with that time or to keep ourselves busy. Then we would want more time than that. I would probably divide it between spending time with my family and working.

this is very true we would probably fill those extra hours with something so in the end we would be thinking we needed more hours than those and that would just wear us out a lot more than we already are...

Yeah,sometimes it happened to me especially when there are too many things to done and accomplish in a day wherein 24 hours is not enough to do it all, wishing that I might have extra hours to finished it.There are some instances also that you wanted to end a day and too excited for the next day to come and wanted to make the day shorter.How odd right, but I guess that's life.
