This is a journal of the world's biggest side-trackers. We have always needed a good beating up before we start going. And we have had our share of that beating. We've been lazying our way towards the Step for almost half a year, giving ourselves huge breaks .
Now we unite to achieve the extraordinary as we believe there is no such word as impossible.
- We shall rise to the adorning of a new regime,unique and motivating.
- We shall abide by the rules we have set.
- We shall not rest until our eyes pop out by the end of the day.
- Worldy pleasures will hold no value in these last days.
- We shall not burn out and will keep on going.
- We are here to fight our demons because
" you dont fight your demons and defeat them, you fight them on and on and on."
- Nothing shall deter us from our goals.
- We beseech to Lord Almighty to help us.
- We cannot be stopped.
- We have only 90 days and every day will be at minimum a 14hr day hardcore studying.
- We are done with the first read and starting our second memorization.
- Study materials are varied but it doesn't matter as long as you're really studying.
- We will write our topics covered, hours of study and questions done by the end of the day for record keeping here.
- We will out-smart time
- Prayers and thanks to Allah Almighty who united us and made us come out of our dazed lazed states.

In short, Time is short. Time is score. Time is all.
And our time starts from NOW.........

Comfort me, Lord, for only you can comfort this state of mine. You gave me life and nurtured me; Yours is all the praise. If You would ever drive me away from Your door, I would never abandon it for the sake of Your love, which I carry in my heart._ Rabia,"Rabi'a ,the mystic".

My partner has said it all,left nothing for me to say...but its exactly what I always had in mind & GOD she has written my mind out here!!

We can be as great as we want to be,as some great being rightly said.... We believe in ourselves and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and we sure are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile....I am sure together we'll make IT happen!! This 'IT' ,ladies & gentlemen ,is what we call in simple language: A PERFECTIONIST's SUCCESS!!!! Ofcourse we'll only be blessed with it with ALLAH's divine guidance!

Hey Salmonella,here comes Bordetella.......& hey U, STEP 1 ......Here we both come to knock u down realhard!!!!

P.s. Got my TOEFL result . Scored a happy 114/120.
Hey, pardner when I look back at the time I supposedly thought I wasted , I think about it again. Did not waste . Got done with GRE and TOEFL with a good score. That was an accomplishment. Before tension gets the better of me now, I just have to keep on going, reminding myself that I am capable. We all are.

Gotta study 12 hrs ATleast...Got done with 2 hrs. 10 to go
