Psychology is so cool.

The problem with studying things I'm actually interested in is that I can't just do what I'm supposed to do. I do a search for journal articles on one topic for a paper and end up absorbed in articles that are completely irrelevant to the project. I hear a professor mention a neat study in lecture and spend way too much time reading up on it (I could spend weeks just on Milgram). I get through half a page of the textbook I'm supposed to be reading before I find a reference to another book I have to read, and then another one, and then those have more--I'm in the middle of four psychology books right now that aren't required for any of my classes, and the waiting list is growing exponentially. I want to start subscribing to journals, but then I would never have a chance to do any homework at all.

I mean, I'm not complaining. This is exactly what I want to be doing. It's just that I wish I had more time.
