How do you fix text not showing up in TextBox?

So I'm making a GUI that shows some cool geeky information like their account age for example. But I've fell into yet another pit. Here's the script:

01local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer or game.Players.PlayerAdded:Wait()
02local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
03local plrname = char.Name
04local plrageraw = plr.AccountAge / 365
05local plrid = plr.UserId
06 
07 
08local plragebox = script.Parent.UserAge
09local plridbox = script.Parent.UserID
10local plrsessionbox = script.Parent.UserSessionTime
11 
12function PlayerAge()
13    local updated = 0
14    local us = "Info has updated"
15    local ss = "during this session."
16    while true do
17        updated = updated + 1
18        print("User Info updated")
19        if updated == 1 then
20            print(us.." one time "..ss)
21        elseif updated == 2 then
22            print(us.." two times "..ss)
23        elseif updated == 3 then
24            print(us.." three times "..ss)
25        elseif updated == 4 then
26            print(us.." four times "..ss)
27        elseif updated == 5 then
28            print(us.." five times "..ss)
29        elseif updated == 6 then
30            print(us.." six times "..ss)
31        elseif updated == 7 then
32            print(us.." seven times "..ss)
33        elseif updated == 8 then
34            print(us.." eight times "..ss)
35        elseif updated == 9 then
36            print(us.." nine times "..ss)
37        elseif updated == 10 then
38            print(us.." ten times "..ss)
39        elseif updated > 10 then
40            print(us.." "..updated.." times "..ss)
41        end
42        local plrageraw1 = plrageraw * 1000
43        local plrageraw2 = math.ceil(plrageraw1)
44        local plragefixed = plrageraw2 / 1000
45        plragebox.Text = ("Account Age: "..plragefixed.." years")
46        plridbox.Text = ("User ID: "..plrid)
47        warn("User Info will update in 5 minutes")
48        wait(300)
49    end
50end

52function PlayerSession()
53    local sec = 0
54    local min = 0
55    local hr = 0
56    while true do
57        sec = sec + 1
58        if sec >= 60 then
59            sec = 0
60            min = 1
61        elseif min >= 60 then
62            sec = 0
63            min = 0
64            hr = 1
65        end
66        plrsessionbox.Text = ("User Session Time: "..hr.."h "..min.."m "..sec.."s")
67        wait(1)

Output

So I can't find out what's wrong with the "Session" part. There's no error in the output and I've looked over it and it appears to be normal. The other two parts of the GUI works just fine. I might be missing something but like I said, it appears to be normal. I am a bit new at coding in Lua. I've tried putting the local variables [sec, min, hr] outside the function, but I expected it not to work and of course, it didn't work.

Thanks in advance! :)

You have while true do in your PlayerAge() function so your PlayerSession() was never activated. 9mze 193 — 5y
