Your perception and outlook on time changes a lot.

Everything seems to go by faster. Waiting for something doesn't seem that bad when it's in terms of days instead of hours, weeks instead of days, months instead of weeks, years instead of months.

When making long term plans, "how long you think you'll live" becomes more and more of a factor.
