    So can i remember things like they were yesterday... its called a good memory. If you mean that life is moving by in a blur and you might loose track of what day,week even year it is without having to think hard about it? Well would you rather be bored and have nothing to do, nothing to keep you occupied? Whatever you do for a living.. college, work... try something else.. its all you can do. Oh dont drink alcohol, dont do drugs and dont drink caffeine.. life WILL slow down. Also try relaxing... instead of going out every night or a lot.. have a lot more nights in.. read a good book.. its fairly straight forward and obvious advice and you should have thought of it yourself... If you want to slow down.. then do so!

    Thats really quite a simple one and not really to be worried about. A friends dad put it this way-

    Up to your mid teens, your life experience isnt that great and therefore just about everything is a new experience. As you get older fewer things become new experiences and more become familiar experiences. The fact that the greater amount of things you experience are familiar gives the impression that it happened in the relatively recent past making time seem like it's passing quicker.

    Two examples- I left school ten years ago, yet it seems like yesterday.
    Everytime I wake up in a doorway pissed I think "This is too familiar. Seems like I was only here last week".
