some days.... no matter how much i try... i just dont study....

today is one of those days...sunday.... after having done so very well in the past week... i just fizzled out.. natural i guess... but also its the stress of a few other probs that factors in too....

oh well...2mrw is another day.....

inshallah i will do better 2mrw....

Hi Jaide, so you have a journal and still are able to post in the study groups, thank you for dropping by and giving your advice.

I didn't know you were doing your internship, I can't imagine studying while I was doing my internship it is so exhausting, good luck and you are doing just fine.

In what countrys do you have to do an internship?, where are you from?

You posted in Tolito's journal something about I CAN is 100% better than IQ or something like that, great line, I agree totally with that, I was in the top 10 of my class, and people that repeated semesters, and even almost flunked med school, have already passed the steps and are finishing residencys in the US, so it is not a matter of IQ it is a matter of how much you wanted, and how motivated, and how much perseverence you have.

Take care and good luck with your studyies, keep dropping by in our study group. ciao

hi jaide.
so nice of u to take some time out n drop a nice wish in my journal. this is the first time i read urs. in fact, this is d first journal i hav read. and what i was very pleased to find was that u r also doing internship. GOD only knows how long have i been searching fr someone in the same boat as me. just to share some experiences about how it is to co-ordinate study with internship.

in fact, my prep has nearly been a xerox of yours. if i recall corrctly, i started preparing on jan 23. well, as in ur case, things just would not work out n i had to start afresh in june. its only recently that i have started picking up some speed. i'll finish biochem n genetics on sunday or at the most monday n start micro. hope u'll keep on sharing ur prep experience.

i also remember u writing in a post that u r in india/pak. i m in india at present. so stay in touch. i don't have ur email id but please feel free to drop in a hi at indidoc1@yahoo.com.

u r progressing really well in studies now. falling in love with ur prep is every exam giver's dream come true! wish u the very best of luck.

think i should stop now. don't be mad at me fr posting such a long post in ur journalgrin

ok.....

so report is...micro done...of course i dont remember any of it...all tiny details..needing rote memorization.....ughh!!!! but atleast i re-aquinted my self with some very icky bacteria........oh and biochem came in handy at points...

now doin immuno...upto ch 7 done...easy stuff...now comes the mama...!!!!hoping to b done with it in the next 48 hrs...

All your life you are told the things you cannot do. All your life they will say you're not good enough or strong enough or talented enough; they will say you're the wrong height or the wrong weight or the wrong type to play this or be this or achieve this. THEY WILL TELL YOU NO, a thousand times no, until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell you no, quite firmly and very quickly.
AND YOU WILL TELL THEM YES."


ok...too amzing to pass up...so i post it here.....coz...come hail or wind...with GOD on my side...im so doin this!!!!!

ok....dear diary...so as they say... life is sometimes real good...but when it decides to b bad.... wwhooo!!!!!!

so after spending the last week inbed..hugging my current 2005 edt ..trying to self diagnose myself....i finally gave up.... had to go to a "real doctor" as my mom likes to say.... he gave me ome...and voila,,,,3 days later ....i feel well enough to pik up physio....sigh........oh wel.. its for the best...coz one of the drawbacs of studying med is that occasionally u tend to belive the worst(sheeesH...for a few min i actually considerd as having cholcystitis....oh brother!!!!!!)

neways onwards..... so will do physio...brs first....then i will do the same chap from kaplan...

lets c how it goes....

i wanna do this sub really well..so im gonna go thorou......
