And it’s Sunday today
In Chinese we have a saying that "Time is losing while you are blinking" to describe time is passing very quickly. In English it’s "How time fly!"? I learned that from my primary school, please teach me if there are any other expressions:)
I have been home for almost one month already. Compare to the time in Japan, especially the last few weeks, I can say I have been totally enjoying and relaxing at home this month. But I just realised that time is passing much more quickly when you are in holiday. It’s Sunday again today, that means another week has finished (Sunday is the last day of a week in my personal timetable).
One month’s holiday is probably enough, I should get into study. Still got my one year project which I should have got it done in Japan, but I haven’t touched it yet. And my Japanese and getting worse as the language environment is gone, so as my English. I think I’d better start doing some work from now.
Gan ba ri masu!

It is different how to say of passing time in Chinese, English and Japanese.
Maybe you kow,
we say Time is passing ‘Attoiumani’ which means be surprized when one’s noticed while one’s say ‘Attu’ (in like a flash!)and means don’t have enough time to think about something.(you understand? I can’t explain it in English well.^^;)

“le temps passe très rapidement” It is described in French.
I agree with you that time is passing so quickly when we enjoying the happy holiday, so we can call it happy “moment”.
Though we cannot stop it, let us cherish it, with our family, lover and friends.
