Day 3
skipping classes today to study
my goals are:
→ complete learning all the flashcards I’ve made so far
→ make flashcards for all the topics I have for pharmacology
→ if I have remaining time, complete at least 13 topics in total from microbiology and 4 from pathology, at least flashcard making
not working out today or for a while because I sprained my hand earlier and yesterday’s workout aggravated it
check out this site if you want more study motivation: Focusverse
update: very tiring and intellectually draining day. Did not really meet anyone because I spent the whole day in my room studying, besides going out to eat my meals and do some grocery shopping. Med school exam are tough. But I must stay focused.
Prolonged sitting is making itself felt (sciatica, I feel)
At times like this having a girl friend would be awesome, because it is someone to talk to and encourage you to keep pushing forward. Especially if it is a fellow medical student, the help would be great. However, I am single 
because I need to focus on myself at the moment.
Christ is enough for me.

Day 4
Tomorrow is my first exam, pharmacology so I will be preparing for that.
My goal for today:
→ listen to the 8 lectures I want to refer in endocrine pharmacology
→ complete making flashcards for all pharmacology topics
→ put all the flashcards into memory
→ found out exact time and date of exams
→ call my friend regarding our start-up
But first of all, I must spend time with God today morning; I have not been the most diligent at this, so I need to work on it, but I will keep trying no matter what
update: quite a few urges today. Lots of sexual energy build up. I can feel it within me, must now put it to productive use.
update 2: cant’ quit, won’t quit, must win
will sleep only after finishing all the necessary flashcards for my exam tomorrow
now less talking; let me shut up and finish the work to be done

Day 5
waking up early to study
today’s going to be a long day, but God’s grace is enough for me.
some pre-exam stress, but we’ll see how it goes.
update: Pharmacology went well by God’s grace; now for pathology
update 2: lots of urges, bit hard to study but not giving up, relying on God
update 3: wasted too much time today; have 2 hours left to redeem today, going to make the best of it
final update: won the day

Day 6
my first mistake is that I didn’t spend time with God first thing in the morning, which I should change from tomorrow. Because God should always be at the center of everything.
have a study holiday today, so obviously, going to study.
Goal:
→ cover full pathology portions making flashcards
→ commit all the flashcards to memory
feeling very tired from all the studies, but I am enjoying the process
update: basically I had a pretty sexual dream today morning, and the whole of today I’ve been bothered with urges on and off due to flashbacks of that dream; submitting it to God; I cannot fall, because I will land back where I don’t want to be
my calisthenics goal for the next month is:
→ 16 pull-ups, perfect form
→ 50 pushups, correct form, no breaks in between
→ 10 pike pushups, perfect form
Currently at:
→ 8 pull-ups, perfect form
→ 32 pushups, correct form, no breaks in between
→ 4 pike pushups, perfect form
update: lots and LOTS of urges today; by God’s help I did not fall; must keep pushing forward

I am definitely okay with that. ButI don’t use this app anymore, I have switched to focusverse, and I would recommend that to you as well. It is a very good website, I have linked it in the post following the earlier one. It is better than cuckoo timer.
Let me know if you are interested in joining me on focusverse.

Day 7
Once again, I have woken up early to study
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Phil 4:13)
exam went well by God’s grace; through him alone I did well.
Now studying for the next exam (microbiology)
topics I will cover in microbiology flashcards today:
→ measles
→ mumps
→ rubella
→ HIV
→ cholera
→ salmonella
→ hepatitis
→ leprosy
bit ambition, but lets see what I can do.
lots of urges today as well, but I held on and went out with some friends instead because I didn’t want to stay in the room; lots of excess energy means I have to utilize it well
the signs of abstinence are beginning to show; have more drive and energy now, more desire to push out from my comfort zone, all signs of high testosterone; I’m pretty sure I have fairly higher than average testosterone levels, genetically speaking, because I have the symptoms of someone like that- let’s keep it that way xD
Yes. I am interested to join you. Please send me the link so that we can join together. During weekdays we will have study sessions after 8 PM because I have college on the remaining time.
And on weekends , We can have sessions whenever we want

join whenever you like, the good part about this website is that you can do solo sessions and other random people can join you; I usually use it after 5 pm on weekdays (but mostly this week, because I have exams)…
I have the same username on that site as well

Using my God-given masculinity to complete the goals I have to finally give all glory to Him
must be more focused; I cannot afford to be distracted now
I don’t feel like studying anymore, just want to take a long long break; but must keep pushing through it.
Man looks at the outside appearance, but God looks at the heart (the Bible)

Day 9
Microbiology exam didn’t go as well as I would have liked it to. But that was my fault. I did not study enough for it. I must not make the same mistake for my last exam, forensic. I will make all the flashcards by today, and revise them tomorrow.
Urges are always there, but I am fighting them with God’s help.
There are only two options, one is to suffer the temporary displeasure of fighting the urge, which will disappear in seconds, and the other is a lifetime of slavery, which I refuse to partake in.

Day 10
Finished my exams…for now 
Came back home now, for a few days of vacation, before I will have to return back to college and all the work I have to do back there, especially with regards to basketball and gymming, which I have to catch up on, and a lot of magazine editorial works.
My goals for my vacation:
→ Work on completing the research protocol and the outline draft of my upcoming research paper
→ Discuss product details with my friends on our startup
→ Learn as much as I can of the ‘Freebird: guitar solo’ by Lynyrd Skynrd

The reason I did not update for a while is because I am ashamed to say I relapsed day-befpre-yesterday.
Back to day 0.
I must learn from my mistakes and keep moving forwards.
Exams are done but my work is far from finished.
Today’s goals:
→ Complete flashcards for SMRs
→ Complete flashcards for LAs
→ Complete flashcards for GAs
→ Revise all Anki flashcards for Pharmacology
→ Discuss with my friend regarding our startup

Day 3
urges are here and there, but not very prominent.
was in a depressed mood these past few days, there was no real reason as to why which I could explain. With God’s help I got through it, and now am feeling better.
Went for basketball practice today, tomorrow will be rest day then will rejoin the gym the day after.
I need to get back to my dedicated studying routine.
