Do your best
There are no shortcuts
on the way to a dream,
So give all that you have
to all that you do
And above all things,
believe in yourself.
This is all your dream asks of you.
But this is everything.

This happens to pretty much all of us. Give urself some time and u'll soon be doin great again.
Think about ur long term goals, ur dreams, aspirations.
Live them in ur mind.
And u realize soon studyin for them isnt a bad deal at all. Its easy! And welcome!

as for me i am lazed out yesterday and today ..setting my sleep cycle right .. and i was taking too much coffee .. so pinned myself to no more than 2 cups a day . dry eyes worsening with night time study.. so setting myself to daytime
5 pm here .
sleeping at 12:00
will do 100 q's before sleeping
that's the target for today .. sitting in front of comp all day tires me out and reduces productivity
so i am going to split up my day in reading and doing q's

hi all
step99 i've got 950 questions left on UW... actually the couint should've been 600 today but i am lagging behind coz of lack of concentration and easy fatiguability....
thanks genbot.... you are right... i know we all all have ups and downs and it isn't the first time with me either... its just that its taking a long time to recover.... let's see how i do today.. its 10 am... i'd got up at 9 today...
milee.. yes i can't give up and don't want to either...i still have the same strong will and determination.... its just that my body doesn't comply anymore.... i'm having dry eyes problem too i think.... actually whatever you wrote is happening with me as well.......... i just get too exhausted by the end of the day and lose pruductivity.... yeah splitting the day is a good idea....
"If yesterday didn't end up the way planned,just remember:God created today for you to start a new one."
so let's start a new day...
i'l be back in the evening to report.

hi callosum..
its all depends on your grasping power..once you are done with all the qs..for the next trip u wont be spending that much time..but to read all the expl. it really takes time, so dont worry..

SOS ... yes, pl do join in , post short quick progress or vent, scream out loud ..... even at home when no one home to let it out , do play ABBA you tube SOS then I have a dream so u will keep ur dream . Also I am alive by Celine Dion .
All links r in my journal or at loungh .
Do break few 15 min after 1 or 2 hr just close eye , lie down to recharge brain , body after sitting long at desk with pc.
Anyhow .. lets show more study then chatting ..
Welcome everyone, good to see all frds new , old here , this is not only for March ..
it is for all prepper from now onwards , hope will be aliev for future so , all can chip in , get answer advice at oen main site in journal , thnx milee to creat it.
So will post progress study , abit life , vent, welcome, wish GL & congrate here .
My progress ..
... biochem .. so far back to track today so almost done or not since each cpt r v. packed so need really good read as final read .. later will b review & cram .
Yup FA ... when not read bioch , to get familiar with .
Few Qs ... here there too .
Also cannot stay away from physio ... when get chance .
Then HY etc , kap as main read r stuck, just to change mind , so can b back on main read .
Like to do UW ... no time , so will see .
GOOD LUCK to angle for her score , miss to wish GL for D day since was sick .
GOOD LUCK to exm nearer .. genbot , some one on 29th too ??
step99 ... I had same as no kap notes , do not want to look at it even at my suppose to restart read , but after reading others around, the ... gem... is in detail almost in kap LN , especially if u have doen already .
So pl do review them well , not like fast rush read we did at 1st with dvd or even some times 2nd look quick browse . kap LN & DVD notes or dvd desreve well good time patient raed , review for each purpose for each at least .. to get it stick to our so many books messy head to get all organize , is boom, bang all kap LN & RR [ optional if acnnot do , like, but better be ] & FA , UW , KME [ depends ur taste ] .
callosum[ CLM ]... am not aim for March or even after , mine still working, am still learning, no qs really yet , here is for all prepper from now on .
uw .. I think time is depends how u like to do, by self ie only uw qs no & , no other read , u can do alot in one day . Also if u write all .. take time , if u mark ..lesser, then if u open books then .. read GT , ie Guyton's journal with genbot & GT saying re UW , but just idea , do what works for u . Also if only review wrong , if u get most rt.. take few days like genbot [ st 2 99/ 260 ] & 100% uw in some .. way to go GB [ genbot ] .
Ok, enough talk , back to study .
Will post short next time milee , now just post long as needed .

thanks shwe...
callosum.... i am doing UW questions these days.... somebody just mentioned that it depends on one's grasping power ,and i agree to that.
i end up spending 3 to 5 hours on one block of 50,3 for my good subjects and 5 or slightly more for my bad ones.... but then again... i write down explanations of all those i feel i'l forget ....and i actually end up writing a lot of them so it takes me lot of time.... in case you are not writing them it should take you lesser time...
but in my case... the max questions i could do was 120,for micro only... and for rest of them i could complete 100 in a day if i do nothing else and stay focussed.....

Don’t Quit!
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but do not quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow—
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor’s cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out—
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit—
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.
—Anonymous
