A little high school science review:
Earth, the third planet of our solar system, revolves around the Sun once every 365 1/4 days. The Earth rotates at a uniform rate on its axis once every 24 hours. Turning in an eastward direction the Sun 'rises' in the east and seemingly 'travels' toward the west during the day.

Sure, we know that already. But I have a bone to pick with time. It just occurred to me that, maybe, I'm not really busy; maybe it's not that things to do pile up each and every day; maybe I'm not mismanaging time.
What if the Earth is actually rotating faster around its axis and is revolving faster around the Sun than it did a hundred years ago? What if our 24 hours now are actually fast-forwarded versions of our ancestors' days?
Highly unlikely? Preposterous! Besides, our planet is for sure a lot heavier these days, how can it move faster? Any layperson can reason that.
But I need time - unlimited time! I feel like a slug (though how on earth would I know how a slug feels, duh!) and I need a little pushing. As my current theme song says, "I am not always on time; please don't expect that from me. I will be late but if you can just wait, I will make it eventually." Hate me for it, but I'm a fan of eventuality. All you need is a little patience.
ahem… *drumroll* TIME is relative [how original is that? 
]
i depends really. if you have a lot of things to do, time travels faster. when there’s nothing to do, it crawls like a snail

—this never failed to keep me laughing ;D
You should ask help from hiro nakamura. He can stop time for you.
Or borrow Schmuel’s clock. Surely it can give you unlimited time.

I’m the right person to ask regarding planets… hehehe
I suggest you enter my world and you’ll see the difference.
Cheers!
