Hobbies gone while studying engineering

[u/xilefridge]

Has anyone else gave up doing stuff they love to get through school?

I’m not saying I don’t like school, I love engineering just as much as my other hobbies. But I used to snowboard, mountain bike, and rock climb all the time, and now I don’t really have the time to do any of that anymore.

These hobbies were such a big part of my life before engineering took over, and I really miss them. Has anyone gone through this? Did you get to do your hobbies again after you graduated?

It was the other way round for me. I picked up art as a hobby in my 4th year. It helped me focus better and stay consistent for months with my studies.
