What I did on Monday April 17th:

Discussed pharma, half of Antimicrobials chapter.

Then continued my Micro, able to do fungi and parasitogy. Today would be virology.

Well before that thinking of revising again, with MRS, so that I can add extra points, and pneumonics to my Kaplan..because I wonder can I revise that big book in the end..hence I think I should stick to Kaplan which has very good comparison and tables..will see how it works out..

Will see how much I can do today...so far feeling okie, other than little tierdness, but once I sleep , therafter I feel better..will do the same today as well..God willing!

My Daily Motivator for today:

Always with you..!!

The best experience you ever had is still part of you. The most beautiful day you have ever enjoyed still lives within your heart.

All the love you've ever known is yours in this very moment. Though it arose from specific conditions, its value now goes far beyond them and continues long after those conditions have faded.

What's even better is that you can take that value and expand on it, at any time, in any place. The love, the beauty, the experiences that you treasure can serve as the basis for even more richness.
People, places, events and things pass in and out of your life. What you're left with is whatever you choose to keep.

And what you choose to keep, what you truly value and appreciate and treasure, sets the stage for what will be. The more you choose to see the good and positive aspects of each experience, the more fulfilling life will grow.

You never have to struggle to regain what you think is lost. The best is always with you, and can grow into much, much more.

Have a very good day friends..nodnod

Thank u fruit....ur words always makes me feel good and confident.

What I did on April 18th Tuesday:

Pharma Discussion..finished antibacterials.

Then started virology...later in the afternoon..could not do much slept, hence started adding points from MRS, same time also read FA..thinking of covering FA few pages a day..atleast I should get used to the pages..and pick up high yield facts..

I felt FA 2006, is very good, I had 2004, but went and looked at Barnes and noble, as I was skipping those pages..I really liked the systemic approach..and it is just awesome..hence I bought the same, thought in the end it would make a good wrap up..system wise!

Ok today if I can will try to finish remaining Viro..then microbial genetics and drug resistance...Ooops only wish if I can read in my sleep..or even in my dream.rolling eyes

Beyond the choice

When faced with making a choice between alternatives, it pays to put some time and effort into making the best choice. Then after the choice is made, it's time to put your effort into making the most of that choice.
Certainly it is important to put thought and care into the decisions you make. Be sure to also put just as much energy into the living and fulfillment of those choices.
Making the best choice is a great start. Yet it is only a start.

The value of any choice comes from following through on it. The actions you take to support and carry out the choices you have made are what give those choices real meaning in your life.
The way your decision works out depends on what you do to make it work out. As important as the decision itself may have been, it is not nearly as important as what you do to bring it to life.

You've made the choice. Now is your opportunity to make it real.

-- Ralph Marston http://greatday.com/motivate/index.html

Have a very productive day friends..lets make all our choices a reality today..happy studyingnod

i do not know how u take the time to motivate us with your nwriting anyways how the pregnancy going any morning sickness yet well take one day at a time i wish i had your stamina keep on moving and u definately want to give the exam before the baby comes b/c then u do not want to study but just cuddle your precious bundle of joy

good luck


  #148

i missed the good news!!! CONGRATULATIONS.
i was down last week just plain good ol depression but am back on my feet.

yes you need to get all teh exams done in the next 6months so you can get the best out of yourself. it is tough to study with a newborn. you will be too tired most of the day. even if you have someone like your mom helping you it is still tough. so just go for it before he/she comes.
i know that God does not give us stuff that will be a nuisance or hindrance to us. this child is a blessing and will bring even more joy to your life.

female doc ny..so far I am feeling okie still other than morning sickness soon after I wake up, otherwise whole day I just do on and off with my studies, missing my mom and family very badly, well whatelse can I do, when you are alone, if I was with family may be I would have enjoyed being with them, now its all over the phone..well instead feeling lonely, I just love to get occupied , being busy..so that I do not have to miss my mom and familysad

Hey tolito..dont worry, this journey will bring you a great success in the end. keep moving..we all can do it, whichever situation we are in, when things bother me, I jsut pray n pray n pray..soon after I am in peace and happy, this is only way I tackle my down moments.

What I did Yesterday April 19th Wednesday:

This coming month I am not counting anything, because I will be done with my 8 week, then I know Nausea /Vomitting should set in, so will wait to buy Kaplan Q bank after this phase..then will move on will see,

God please take care both of us myself and my little one..we want to do this,..only with your help, and strength I think We can do this..rolling eyes

Stop and remember

When you are tempted to stray off track, stop and take a moment to consider where you're going. Remember why you originally began traveling the path you're on.
When the many distractions of life put you in danger of losing focus, stop and give yourself an opportunity to regain clarity. Remember the depth of passion with which you first started your journey.

When it seems that nothing is going your way, stop and make some time to adjust your perspective. Recall how far you've already come, and remind yourself that positive actions will indeed have positive, valuable results.

When you find that you've grown weary, stop and give yourself a real, refreshing, well-deserved break. Then you can jump back into the effort with a renewed vigor and sense of purpose.

When you feel that you've lost faith in the goodness of life, stop and look around you. Offer your genuine help to someone in need, and you'll find that your heart is soon being healed.

When you find yourself too caught up in the frustrations that surround you, stop and remember the treasures you value most deeply. And you'll reconnect to the incredible abundance that is your life.

Have a very productive day friends...nodnod

hey buddy,missing you motivationshaking head?is eevrything ok?

  #155

thankyou 26malik, drbin, tolito and dipti..

Yesterday April 22nd, what I did?

Nothing, not even a single page with respect to my studies. Woke up late as usual, because of morning dizziness,later had appointmnet with a doctor and he did TVS.

Oh My,that experience of, having the very first sight of my little one, the part and parcel of my very own, its little heart beat beating along with mine....made my vision blurred filled with tears as I stared at the monitor, sowas my husbands as he held my hand tight. It was a very beautiful moment to cherish for us and the very first time I truly started believeing someone is really is there inside me!

later went for shopping, then had guests in the evening for sleepover,hence cleaned house, served dinner, oh my when I hit the bes it was 1:00am!

I could not even spent few moments to peep thru my internet yesterday..so goes my Friday filled with all prayers and Thanks for the small miracle he has done for us..leaving myself with content and peace, hence my million and trillion thanks to my ever merciful God!


So also said my Daily motivator yesterday:

Friday,April 21st,2006

Fina a way to be thankful!

In every challenging situation, there is something for which to be thankful. Find it, and you're well on your way to getting successfully through the challenge.
It may seem strange to express gratitude while in the midst of trouble and difficulty. Yet that gratitude can help to shine a positive, empowering light on any situation.

If you allow yourself to be overwhelmed with negativity, all you can see are the problems. When you choose instead to find something for which to be thankful, you start to see the all the many good and positive resources available to you.

In the most difficult situations you can often find the most valuable opportunities. Gratitude will open your eyes to those opportunities.

Always, there is a positive aspect to be found. Always, there is something for which you can be genuinely thankful.

And the more challenging the situation, the more essential it is to have something positive to hold on to. Find something real to be thankful for, and you'll find yourself moving forward.

-- Ralph Marston http://greatday.com/

So, this was so true in my case, yesterday was the day of saying thanks in different ways for different things, God has bestowed in my life..Thank U Godnod

My Daily motivator for today:

Saturday April 22nd 2006

What's the rush?

Life has its own certain rhythm and pace. When you attempt to outrun it, you miss it.
Making life faster does nothing to make it better. Today is plenty and right now is always enough.

Tomorrow will come in good time, and there's nothing to be gained by rushing to get to it ahead of time. Instead, live fully the depth and richness of this day, of this moment.

Take each opportunity as it comes to enjoy and fulfill the beauty of what is. There is something wondrous and valuable in every direction you look.

It makes no sense to put all your energy into jumping ahead of yourself. For life's treasures are all here in this moment right now.

Choose to live your life at the pace that it comes to you. And its many treasures will surely be yours.

-- Ralph Marston http://greatday.com/motivate/index.html


Thsi is so true in my case..so will I take teh same way, how muchever I can, however I can..will see how much I can do today..have a great and wonderful day and weekend friends.nod.
