So I am on holiday rn but I’m still doing a little bit of studying (I’m skiing most of the day so.. it’s not much but it’s honest work). I’m looking into biochemical methods of research and some basic embryology at the moment. Hope to progress to DNA replication soon.

Okay so yesterday doesn’t really count because I didn’t really do anything, but I’m back at the library and ready to get some stuff done.

Subject of today is the basics of molecular biology, so like DNA and RNA and how they are formed biochemically. And also some biochemical methods for research and stuff.

Sooo I did go to the library today to study, but I didn’t really do anything except some organization stuff so not really a productive day but hey, tomorrow’s gonna be better right?

A friend of mine has a really big exam tomorrow so I hope she’s gonna do well.

I’ll try and get to the library earlier tomorrow so that I maybe actually get something done.

I recently read a post somewhere around here where it said: there’s no drug like academic validation (or something along those lines)

Kinda inspired me to try this 100 day thing again and then I thought: ‘hey maybe three times is the charm’ so here we are again.

I did pass my neuro-anatomy exam but I still have to do biochem and physiology so there’s plenty of time to do this.

Got back to Uni yesterday and of course slept in today. Anyway I’m at the library rn studying biochem so wish me luck.

I need to learn 153 new Anki cards today which seems a lot but I hope I’ll get it done.

Well well well…

It’s been a while since I posted basically anything so let’s start over.

I’m currently struggling to learn neuro anatomy and biochemistry. I hope I’ll be a little more consistent this time but only time will tell.

For today I have to drive back to Uni and do some revision and hopefully go to bed a little earlier because tomorrow needs to be a fresh start.

See you tomorrow🪐

So today had kind of a slow start, went to my clinical physiology seminar, ordered some sushi afterwards and kinda just chilled since then. Yesterday I got 8 h of studying done and I'm kinda pleased with myself because of that, today im just happy if I can finish my Anki-cards and go to sleep.

Tomorrow I hope I can be at the library at 8 am, but that kinda depends on how long I'll be studying for today because yesterday (or should I say today) I only went to sleep at 5:30 am.

Anyway wish me luck already for Monday next week because I have a little test in physiology there.

So I actually got the 6 h done yesterday but only because at 2am I couldn't sleep and decided to do some more Anki-cards.

Anyway, today I had another Seminar which was really boring but now that I've studied a bit I feel like I understand the things they say a little better.

Yesterday was pretty productive too, I got more than five hours of total study time done and I think that’s pretty good for my second day of studying.

Today I’m aiming for 6 at least (every day a little better yk) and that I can finish my physiology Anki-Cards a little earlier so that I still have time to look up all the questions I’ve already put down.

Also I decided to not try and force myself to get up at 6 am anymore because that’s just not how my circadian rhythm works. I’ll get up around 8 am (or a little later like today) and then work from there. Because as long as I get everything done before I go to sleep, it’s a good day.

So today actually has been going pretty good so far. I got my neuro-anatomy Anki cards done and I’m working on my physiology ones.

I had to study at home for most of the day because of our new reservation system at the library, where some people just reserve spots weeks in advance and if you don’t do that you don’t really get anything. Of course that’s kinda my fault but anyway a little annoying.

So now I’m at the library (because after 5pm you can’t reserve spots anymore and everyone can choose their spots freely) finishing my anki cards for the day and after that the only thing left to do is look up all the things I wrote down which I didn’t understand yet. Yay

Well the exam on Friday didn't really go all that well, but then again I expected to get 0 Points and I got 2 out of five so that's better than nothing.

Yesterday I spent sitting in a first aid course which was kinda funny because it was only med students there. But the teachers really tried to make it as entertaining as possible even tho we all hear the things they told us for probably the 50th time.

Today I got up pretty late, but at least I cleaned up my room and now im trying to make a study plan for my neuro-anatomy exam on the 17th of July. Now that I'm writing that I realize how little time is left to study for that, so maybe this will give me some motivation to actually get started.

Well here I am again, after too long of a sleep. Tomorrow I have another exam which I obviously still need to study for. But my presentation yesterday went good.

I know I said this before but I really really need to get back on track. In four weeks from now, my neuro-anatomy final is due and my physiology final is even before that so there’s a lot of work to do.

Today I didn’t do much, just went back to my house and did some organizing. But tomorrow it’s a full lab day so that’ll set me right I hope.

After that I need to change my schedule, no more going home for fun. I need to get back to the gym and loose a few pounds and I guess that’ll also help me get back on track with my studies. I’ve always felt that movement makes my mind calmer (and also my fitness is completely down the drain).

So let’s start to day and be better tomorrow.

Exam went better than I expected, went home today. All in all a very long but productive day.
