Solution
It takes me around one hour to reach my school. Had my school been located across the road from my house, I could have reached it within two minutes. Due to the long distance between my residence and school, I waste a lot of time commuting. It affects my studies as less time is left for studies.
Space can be converted into time, as we say, and place is 45 minutes away from here, but time cannot be converted into space.
