Summer-time

It seems that my perception of time shifts focus completely between the semester and summer. This is linked completely to what I am doing, and is quite sad. During the semester, I am rushing between classes, team time, projects, and homework that I keep hoping that time will slow down so I can finish everything that is happening. Now that the summer is in full swing, and I'm not taking any classes for 4 more weeks, it seems as though time should speed up to make up for my lack of things to do.

It's not that I don't have things I could be doing, but there are few things that require my time immediately. I don't have late night study sessions, grading deadlines, or anything that I would give up my free time for. I simply get back from work and do "whatever." This "whatever" usually consists of WoW or TV, but I'm quitting WoW again soon (before I pay for it again) and TV gets very boring very quickly.

I'm trying to fill my time by reading, or doing some extra work in the evenings. However, it is hard to spend more than 40 hours a week on the same project by myself. Thankfully, I have several different areas of the project in mid-development so I can jump between them even in midday.

When I take an easy history class for the second five-week session, I should have less time to get bored like this. I'll be reading and studying a bit, as well as working later. Also, my project will be hitting real deadlines then, and I'll be plenty behind to keep me working extra hours (for no pay, at that).
