So I admit I'm a perfectionist and totally anal retentive. This worked well for me for most of life but now that I'm a first year I feel like I have no life outside of studying. I do take Friday nights off to go out to dinner and see a movie with my husband, but in general I study all my week nights and weekends which gets pretty depressing after a while. I also haven't taken a single entire day off since winter break.
I know second and third year don't get any easier, so I really need to study less and live life NOW. My classes are pass/fail anyway, so I have some cushion room. The problem is I'm so used to being a workaholic I don't know when to stop studying. Can anyone relate to this and offer advice?
(By the way, if you're on the opposite end of the work ethic spectrum and think my post is funny, no cocky comments please. If you can relate, and have some good advice to offer, please share.)
