A very common complain I experienced and also heard from my PhD friends, week days are moving like superfast trains. Come to lab at 10 am, go for lunch at 12 in afternoon, come back at around 1 pm, tea time at 3:30, and dinner at 7 pm.....without realizing, day is over. There is one very apt cartoon on PhD comics about it, which truly reflect out life-styles. And to do some work (mainly to satisfy supervisor ;-) ), we need to do overtime, do research in nights with super cool music and other stuff! What can be the solutions?
May be, self discipline becomes primary requirement to avoid such situations. Other solution is to make deadlines and strictly try to adhere it. Think of a situation when you need to submit conference paper or review of journal paper by some particular date. All your 'extra-curricular' activities will vanish during that time.
