Where did the time go?

I've been trying to figure out why I'm not in a blind panic to study for finals this year. Sure, I'm reviewing a few hours a day, every day, but I'm not in this mad dash to learn every last bit of info either. I feel like I should be though, and I wonder, what's up? Is the course work a bit easier for me this year (maybe....I didn't have Stats this year!) Am I just getting complacent or lazy? I did look at the stack of reading I've done this year and though a voice inside me keeps telling me I should have read more, looking at that stack I don't know I really could have. It's pretty large. And I think I retained a lot of it. I'm reviewing main points and key articles.

I think the biggest reason for all this though is that when I thought about it, I realized that I started my course work a month and a half earlier. I took an extra week of a break over Christmas, but I still read somewhat over that, and I didn't take any time over spring like I did last year. Also, my last exams are almost a week later than last year. So I guess that's really it. I didn't have a course that didn't absorb half my study time like stats did last year, and I have been doing my course work for a much longer period of time.

I'm having a bit of fun with it though. I'm making Marketing flash cards while I watch Battlestar Galactica.
