Phenomenon of having time or the "Hans im Schnäggeloch"

I remeber the feeling very well I had during January, when I was stressed because of the exams. I didn't wish anything else more than having more time for me and things like going out, doing sports whatever... My head was full of all kind of economial theories!

Time went by, exams passed, so the next feeling was great. I had 5 weeks in front of me, which I hadn't really planned (for those who know me better, that's something totally unusal for me).
The first week I slept in every day, spent a lot of time in the internet, read books and met friends almost every evening. Sounds great, but soon I realized that's not what I want. Towards the end of the week I started to look at my watch at 3pm and was wondering what to do untill it's evening... This feeling is even worse, than knowing that you have to spend the next 3 weeks in the library!!!
I started to think about all the unemployed people and how they must feel, terribly!

Next thing was skiing holiday. It was so great to be outside and active the whole day. In the evening you could feel that you did something for your body and I fell to bed tired to death the whole week.

When I came home, I knew that I have to change something, unless I want to spend the other 3 weeks like the first:
- applied for a job
- sat together with my group at university, which I have to write a paper together. Planed who's doing what, so we can start working.
- did some stuff for NST Alumni

Now I'm sitting here knowing that I got the job, knowing where to start with my paper, knowing that there needs a lot more to be done for NST Alumni and wishing to have time for myself and my friends... :-)))

This situation brings this funny nursery rhyme to my mind:

De Hans im Schnäggeloch
Hett alles, was er will!
Und was er hett, des will er nid
Und was er will, des hett er nid;
Der Hans im Schnäggeloch
Hett alles, was er will!
