change of plans

Truth #1: If u don't put the effort into it, u won't get anything out of it.

Hmm...always knew that was the case. I really really did. So ummm..yes.... i out right failed my exam - i don't even think its a boardline pass (actually, there's no way it'll be that). So now i know, if u don't study, u don't get anywhere.

hehe. hmm...take it as a good sign that i'm laughing over it. bc, truly, it's my fault. no one elses. there ARE NO excuses. I can accept that. and I'm willing to accept and deal w all the consequences of this outcome - hmm..i just hope it doesn't include me being kicked out of med...but yes....i'll deal w that if that happens.

I'm really at a crossroad at the moment though. I know i should study, and study hard - but it just seems to me that that's all i've been doing forever, and this year, i should just take it easy a little bc well...the next few million years of my life will involve me studying even harder...but i can't let this continue can i? no. No i can't.

Ok...so i'm going to develop a new study plan- its called time management.
* ok, so i get home from uni and i run for 20 mins, shower and procrastinate a little - should take me an hr
* eat dinner and wash up - another hr
* now say that by this time its 8 30
* no msn until all notes are written up, and i've done some actual studying
* each night look back on yesterday stuff - quiz self on things
* mon- theme 3 night
* tues - theme 4 night
* weds - anatomy
* thurs - theme 3
* fri - theme 2 and 1 if needed
* sat day: theme 3, 4, 2
* sun day: as abv
* now considering i don't waste lots of time, i should be able to have sat and sun nights free
but they're interchangable - as in, take sat day off, then sat night study etc
* now i'm also thinking that weekly either, theme 3 session, theme 2 session (abt stupid epi!), or anatomy sessions will do me some good too - so if anyone is interested - i'm willing to set up a study groupy session thingy every sat day (after ur tutoring mady if u need it) or every sun (after church for nads, bec, carmen)

Hmm ok. Right. now to make sure it actually works..after this stupid assigment..i'm writing up a timetable..and hopefully, will be able to keep up w it

Ok. boy. i feel like i'm in school again.

Cross ur fingers i can maintain this.
