Time Flies! by Jessica Danial

For our table projects this week, my group chose to do the play "Time Flies". It is a comedic drama about two may flies who find out they only have one day to live. Although it was very funny with its puns, satire and sexual allusions, the play reveals a real life message to the audience : Time Flies! It pretty much tells us to make the most of it and to not waste your time with apologies, regrets, and fear...if you have one day left, go to Paris! Well not specifically Paris but make the most of your time and do the things you dream to do. This especially relates to us this year because we are graduating high school and are about to start new lives, so we should make the most out of our last year and live it up (wisely of course).

  1. I agree with your statement that we should try to make the most of our time, because time is constantly ticking, and every second wasted is time we will never be able to get back. I really liked your presentation, and I feel that your post coincides seamlessly with what the play "TIme Flies" was trying to convey.

  2. What you said is true, and we all go through struggles in life that cause us to feel that time is being waisted, but we shouldn't regret anything for too long because while you regret something, you are also waisting more time, so might as well move on and think of greater thing to do in life.

  3. Like both of them said I agree as well, time and experiences and momentary and are constantly fleeting, and being able to enjoy these is a skill we all should learn

  4. Carpe Diem, seize the day, time flees; all of these basically try to convince humans to make use of the limited precious time we have on this earth. I saw an article about a god that the Greeks believed to be the embodiment of this idea and I'd like to share that. It's open for interpretations.
