What Makes a ‘Day’ Feel Longer Than a ‘Night’?

Sometimes a day feels longer than a night because we do more things during the day. Like when you’re playing, eating, or running around, it seems like time is moving slower. At night, when you're sleeping or just resting, it goes by faster, kind of like watching a movie on fast forward.
