crazy.
That is because now you have to pay for the gifts and the presents, and barely get to enjoy them. As a kid, you got the presents, but always wanted more. What happens from December 27th-December 24th is basically earning all the money you need to spend for X-mas.

I think our perception of time, is also influenced by the desires we have in the future. The less "big" they become, the slower time goes ?
