Stuff that I no longer have time for now that I am in University

When it is the middle of the semester and professors begin to assign the students group essays, presentations, midterms and homework, I begin to realize that I do not have time for the hobbies that I used to do before I began University. I used to read a lot of novels on the internet, and would also select books from my personal library. I used to be an avid reader, which helped me academically, especially when I was younger. One time I had finished three books in a month, but I would read them one by one until they were completed. No, I did not rush through the books, I am actually a fast reader. It is not my style to read two novels at the same time, I have no idea why, I think I will get distracted. I will admit I was such a nerd and I loved to read a lot in the fifth and sixth grade. Now in college I am finding myself not having time to read novels that I would enjoy, because I am reading things that I am assigned to read. I do not want to say that what my professors assign me to read is always boring, but sometimes, I am extremely bored to death when I read their assignments. I am just being very honest. One of my other hobbies would be playing the violin. I used to play the violin since sixth grade, but now I have lost the time to continue improving my skills. I had actually found myself looking to purchase a new violin, because it would cost more to repair my old one. I do not want to forget the scales, notes, and techniques that I had known for more than five years. I will definitely continue practicing the violin in summer vacation.
