Hello journal...
it s been weeks since i sat n studied seriously or for that matter i have not even thought about the exams ... been avoiding it due to lots of reasons..
Dad's health is ok ... gotta wait for a week to see if the prob completely clears up... if not further evaluation will be necessary... i hope n pray it just clears up...
but until then my worrying is of no good ... even though worry is all i can do sitting halfway across the world from him...
but i am sure my dad will be very sad if he saw the way i was living my life at present... just wasting away giving so many excuses...
I cant afford to continue like this ... I just cant... i have too much to lose... Dont we all??
so instead of just sitting back and watching the days just slip by so quickly ... i just have to start reading again seriously... i really am not going to aim for crazy heights...
MY MAIN GOAL : is to just read as much as i can , work as hard as i can... and not to be discouraged wen i HAVE TO break away from books due to other demands on my time...

so journal i am back.. ok.. i really am... will start recording my progress everyday...
today is july 16th.. date booked for oct 4th... but i will change it too oct 31st... soon.. so that leaves me exactly 100 days...

i will study as much as i can these 100 days and i promise i will not push more... i just wont... have been pursuing step 1 for toooooooooo long now!

so here goes... i will take it one day at a time.... do as much as possible today... forget yesterday ... forget tomorrow!

PLEASE god i need strength and stamina and willpower and self discipline and TIME....

DAY 1: time is 7:40 am here now... will update during lunch..

and i really have to limit my use of the net !!!!!!!!!!!

bye...

Welcome pursuit! You are absolutely right to the core - worrying doesnt help. And I like "forget yesterday forget tomorrow" part. Very right! Way to go........I realized this when I started my journal too.........do the best you can , asmuch as you can..........Good going ...me and stud are into a 4 hr reporting schedule ......would you like to join the club?

hey thanks so much killer!! i smile everytime i read your name.. gud luc to u too!nod

There's something uniquely beautiful about hardwork.
Simple. Uncomplicated. Always there when u need it.
Always brings out the best in you. Always makes u shine ur brightest.
And we know we all have it yearning inside us. Know its within easy reach.
All we need is to find that key, which unlocks the door forever.
And then, we're blessed. We've won. We're free

feeling very restless... i am going to go for a walk... weather is nice n cool... impending rain....

i am going to do this...

i cannot control the situations that demand my time... but whatever time i can somehow get i have to make up my mind and use it! i must learn to study amidst noise... amidst television noise... amidst sleep... amidst learning to tell no to people and even risk appearing rude... amidst my own fatted laziness and insecurities and weaknesses and failures!

i cannot change the past... i cannot change who i have been till now! i just have to let all that go!

i have to be now.. i have to be the person i so dream of being...

hey guys im not some loser... i am not!

i can work hard... i will...

the harder you work.....the luckier you get......
