flash 번쩍임 : 번갯불처럼 순식간에 나타났다 사라지는 일에 대해 in a flash

올해가 눈깜짝할 사이에 지나갔어  That year just flew by in a flash.

 

I'm feeling a little hungry. How about you?

> Yeah, I could use a snack.

I'll whip down to the convenience store to grab something.

> Do you want me to come with you?

Nah! Don't worry about it. I'll be back in a flash.

I need to take a break from looking at the computer screen.

We've been working on this project for at least the last 6 hours straight.

How about we take ten and grab a coffee.

> Great idea! You run ahead to the cafe, and I'll catch up in a jiff. I'm just going to make a phone call quickly.

OK, no problem.
