Tick-Tock, more time on the clock

By: Kaitlyn Nathem [Vox Editor]

There’s twenty-four hours in a day. One thousand four hundred forty minutes. Eighty-six thousand, four hundred seconds. That might seem like a lot of time in a day, but when it comes down to it, there is just never enough time to get everything accomplished. Especially considering about eight of those hours are spent sleeping and another eight is spent at work or school. That leaves about another eight hours to do whatever is needed to do for the day.

Everyone could use a little bit more time in their day to accomplish more things. Time to eat, exercise, clean, or even take a nap more often would be wonderful to have throughout the day. If only there were a few more seconds in a minute to add onto the day. People complain about not having enough time to complete an assignment, or finish reading a book. A majority of students find sleep to be more important than getting something done. If we had just a little extra time to get stuff done through out the day, then it’d be easier to get things done throughout the day.

Some people think that there is too much time in a day and find themselves bored. Those people should find something else to do with their time and go outside or join an activity. After they start doing this, they should find that they want more time in their day so they can rest and relax. Only people who don’t have anything to do want less time in the day so they won’t be bored.

It would be wonderful to have a few minutes and a couple more minutes added to the day to accomplish many more things. Everyone could find some task, job, or just a book to read in the time that would be added to the day. It’d be extremely useful to have added time into the day.
