405 Entries for “duration”

  1. It’s not about the duration, it’s about the intensity. And when I do it, it’s extremely intense. No, really. I’m not making excuses. Doctors will back me up on this statement. Even if you only do it for a few minutes, biking can do a lot of good! Why? What did you think I was talking about?

  2. For the entirety of his life, George Bumpkin Barker, towed a fine line with reality. He was aware of just enough to know he was different, or special as his mother liked to call him.

  3. Duration speaks to the length of something. Well, that’s what it is in a technical sense. Instead, I like to think about it in terms of what it makes me feel – “duration.” Duration reminds me of endurance, which suggests that you need to get through something. That something is burdening you. Duration feels the same way going to sleep alone at night does. Duration feels like paying your mortgage. Duration gives itself away all day and goes to bed empty.

  5. The duration of time in which thc affects the body is a few hours. Yeah that’s good stuff. I’m not allowed to think, just write so if anyone’s reading this, hey what’s up. Okay I’m running out of time bye.

  6. Have the duration to do what you say you will. Endure the hardships. Push through. In the end, you have to last. And when you last, you will do something amazing with this wondrous gift we call life.

  7. Having duration is important, like screen brightness, the ability is to lat. You want to last in this world, duration takes a lot. You have to SHINE, show the WHAT YOU’RE MADE OF. In this life you can endure it or use your duration to MAKE IT BIG.

  8. A second. A minute. An hour. A day. A week. A month. A year. A decade. A century. A millennium.

    A wait. A breath. A heartbeat.

  9. For the duration of time, she would stay by him.
    Even when his anger roared louder than the sea, even when the waves of depressed washed over him, even when he was an empty chest full of nothingness, she wold stay with him.

    For the duration of time.

  10. I ALREADY DID THIS WORD! as i previously explained i dislike this word because it reminds me of test taking. and i hate taking tests.

  11. Onward and onward, the duration of the day wore through, until at last, I was freed from my bland prison of a school and let into the afternoon sun leaking through the leaves and overhead tree branches. There’s nothing else that sets me back into bliss and says that everything is okay.

  12. I have waited my entire life for this period to be over, this duration that people call it., I want to be alive and care and love and feel; rather than sit and cry and be numb. Hopefully this will pass soon, or at least at some point so I can begin to live my life.

  13. The duration of this meeting was excruciating. Every Autobot in attendance was uncomfortable as they listened to the former Decepticon femme speak. She was also nervous, and she knew that they didn’t believe her. The metal dragon wings on her back sank low with intimidation and her purple optics were dark with fear and uncertainty. She scanned the room one last time and gathered her wits before she spoke again.

  15. The duration of the race is coming near. Who will be the winner? I have read the book and the end is near. What will the duration be?

  16. She had promised him that she would be his perfect little wife, but only during the party’s duration. The heels hurt and the dress was awful, and these people’s attitudes were even worse. But as much as she hated it, she was married the heir of the Suoh Group and the parties were as necessary for them as water was for life.

  17. It was a long haul. The road seemed to go on and on. As if the horizon were just dangling out there, beckoning me to come, come. I hear you, I’m working on it. I keep plugging forward, never seeming to really understand where I am or where I am going. Just moving towards that point, out there. Over the hill. Somewhere else but here.

  19. For the duration of the journey, the girls sat in silence. It wasn’t really a journey, in fact it was a family vacation, but they liked to think of it as an adventure…well it was going to be hell anyways.

  20. duration….
    it lasted longer than I thought

    your glance
    my touch

    our stars internally toward each others souls

    like we’re engaged in hot, tangled sex
    duration, how long have we lasted?

    the awkwardness surrounding our duration
    our duration of awkward teenage love
    meets adult-hood manifestation

    how long have we lasted?
    that’s what I want to know….

  21. The time it takes to go somewhere or get somewhere. It’s those moments you wait or work. The moments you choose what to do with. How long this lasts. No one knows. You just wait.

  22. The duration of the recital seemed like forever. I just wanted to leave. I knew that I had something beautiful waiting for me at home. His gentle voice that is always so sweet, his soft touch that lures me in, his warm embrace that puts me to sleep and his cold lips that keep me on my toes..So I finished off on a colorful note and then took my bows. I ran all the way home.

  23. The duration of life is beautiful. So many things to think about, to dream about, to live for, to live without. People endure because life is to be lived. Do not just endure life. Live it.

  24. Duration is the length of time something exists or continues. The duration of the song is two minutes and thirty-five seconds. The duration of the video is seven minutes and five seconds. He was quiet for the entire duration of the trip.

  27. the time lapses
    as the seconds tick
    Pressure, pressure
    throat closes
    heart races
    and mind encloses in itself
    then a light appears
    and you feel open as everything returns to slow motion

  28. I’m not from america or any other land that is english speaking so I have no clue what this word means, I don’t have time to look it up, so I just do it this way. Is this good enough? I’m not sure, duration. Durex? Wrong and false, probably.

  29. For the duration of the exam, I was supposed to keep myself quiet and surreptitious, so as not to bother anyone.
    Someone gasped, and I could virtually hear the eureka in their mind. Or was it the sound of a light bulb going off.
    Someone sighed, and then handed up their exam anyway. I bit my lip, sharing in their frustration.

  30. I was in it for the duration. Mind you, the duration was only 60 seconds, but I was determined to fill that 60 seconds with a long string of letters and words which hopefully worked well together. That BONG marks the end.

  31. the duration of time is very important for you to think about, every second counts. it is not the time, but the moment that matters. :) soy una loser1!!!!

  32. For how long would this last? I did not know. I just went with it, and found that forever is not all that long. What an unfortunate thing to learn while running from the law forever… eventually the thing just ends, and you look back, knowing the duration.

    One minute is not all that long, unless you can do a lot within it.

  33. It was long, hard, cold. Something to be feared as her lungs drew in then out, then in then out. They were collapsing. She knew this in the general sad way a roadside pigeon might look up to a tree or sky. And yet he was there with her, alone.

  34. The duration of the day had come to a close. The outside never seemed so refreshing. To be trapped in a cage while the world moves around you can be nothing but alone. I sit and wait for the rest of the time. What to do what to do

  35. She knelt in front of the king, feeling timid and frightened. The duration of her time in the land of Dunahil had been a trying one. She was ready to be out of the service of this cruel master. A gentle hand rested on her shoulder. “Please rise.” It was the king’s adviser, a kind and elderly man that reminded her a bit of her long-dead father.

  36. It was hard, sitting there, not moving. Her head rested against my shoulder, her breathing slow and deep as she slumbered. The train station was noisy, so I don’t know how she managed it, but she was sleeping nonetheless. I was afraid to move; afraid to disturb her, afraid to even breath because, being this close, she was making me nervous.

  37. For the duration of the day, I try to be productive. If I can’t do that, I try to at least look productive. A lot of the time, I just send e-mails to my friends and find out what they’re doing. I also commit a lot of time to reading blogs about productivity but rarely do I find that I’m actually as productive as I’d like.

  38. Duration

    I’ve been here for a long time
    and I’m living like all i gotta do is go to sleep and it will be the next day
    and it won’t feel like I’m enduring something anymore
    for the duration of my time I’m just trying to get the d
    maybe that will make time go faster, make me sleep better, longer

  39. I don’t know what strange
    things will happen, or over what duration. But I do know that I’ll try to try them out, see what people are really like, how they change, try to keep my friends over the years the same. And the best part is that it’s easy to do, because they’re just as crazy as I am, and have not much to lose, because we are all crazy at some point in our lives. And wouldn’t it be nice if today was the day?

  40. For the duration of her jail term, she would not be allowed to see her children. That was worse than the prison sentence itself! If only she had listened to Barbara when she told her to stay away from Jimmy. Odd that he’s free, and she’s in jail.
