I got that programming out of my head, and have actually been better at using my time because of it. I can spend more quality time working on papers or reading because I'm not worrying about using it well, and can just start watching anime or reading manga or hang out with friends whenever. It's good to try and schedule and make use of your time, just make sure it's for you, not someone with a profit motive.
