Drinking from a fire hydrant

I was speaking with one of the guys in my study group this morning and he said that he felt like this term has been like "drinking from a fire hydrant" and it really inspired me. There has been so much stuff coming at you in a great rush and it's as if you're trying to get a decent drink, but at the same time it's impossible not to get completely soaked.

At the same time, it's also like having a fire hydrant go off in the middle of a hot summer and you're one of the "kids" who jumps into the middle of the water gushing everywhere and it's exactly what you've been desperately wanting that you can't help having a great time.

It's so easy to get distracted here - back to the books!
