Will I ever have a life?

Well I'm into week 3 of my first term and let me tell ya...it ain't getting any easier! We were warned during orientation that things outside of our life would have to be let go in order to do well. I remember sitting at the table with some of my classmates and proudly declaring  I'm giving up facebook and tv so I can get work done. Well I did that and I still don't have enough time to get done what I need to do. I spent a day with a friend last week. I had the best time but I couldn't help but think at various intervals during the day that in the last hour I could have read this and worked on this, etc. I am secretly counting down the days til my 4 year old is back in daycare so I can devote 8 hours of my time to school work. I see people around me going out and taking vacations, renting movies. I am actually considering cancelling my rental account because I haven't watched a movie in 3 weeks. And my library books are overdue-I have no time for fun reading! Let's not even talk about sleep...I think I get about 4 hours a night, 5 if I face plant in my patho book around 3 am.
I wish I knew how people do this. It's really overwhelming and its becoming a lot more than I ever thought it would be.
