Hi, I am 18 years old from Lithuania.
Had these goals on the start of the month.
Goals:
[x] Stop trolling on coatchings
[x] Keep losing money
[ ] Maybe move up to 15$ someday
[ ] Don't forget to post every week on this thread.
As I started attending coatchings less often now and I will never run NOT below EV so I ticked 2.

Hi there,
Welcome to our blogs section! 
I like the goal where you promise not to troll on coachings anymore! Are you using our hand-evaluation boards? Could be helpful...
Looking forward to more.

Hey there!
Speaking of the goal to pass graduation exam, what're you studying?
I've always found it somewhat dangerous to try and set fixed volume/time played goals, as this can often lead to you chasing the goal and play when not in the proper mindset/not really feeling like it, just to chase a preset goal.
Looking forward to see how you do though!
Regards,
Richard

I am in high school. 
Will have to choose what to study(University and subject) next year after passing exams. Probably will be engineering, not sure what type of engineering to choose though 
And yeah, I won't really chase that volume goal but I can grind out 8-9 hours a day when I don't need to go to school, but now I will have to study more and prepare for exams this month. And yeah I know it is kinda unhealthy even though I take breaks and exercise a bit.

Yeah, won't troll anymore at all.
Thank you for reminding me that. Will definately start using it more often when I will get to 15$.

So had prety busy month. Didn't have that much time for poker, I mean it's last month of high school.
Played only 300 tourneys, Roi is really small, but I was getting coolered a lot preflop, postflop, I got a lot of three way pots where I was 2nd to allin, meaning I was dominated a lot, postflop they did hit a lot.
I was not playing my A game anyway.
So what's the plan now.
I will have 3 exams, June 1st, June 6th and June 18th.
I will stop playing poker, or play really less, like 3-4 hours a days because I will be studying a lot home. (I hope I will)
And once June 18th is finished, I will start grinding really bad, I will have like two and a half month, my plan will be to play 8-10 hours a day including improving my poker skill 6-7days a week. Will move to party poker once I clear bonus on pokerstars, will try STT there.
Not sure about the breaks, maybe I will workout to slow procces of becoming vegetable. Definately will have breaks to rest my back and eyes anyway. Do some eyes' exercises.
Until then, I am taking break from this game
JUNE 2012
Two Giraffes as I was playing on two sites.
My pokerstars Deposit Bonus ended, I cleared all of my VPP that month too.
wasn't playing a lot because I was preparing for my exams. At least exams went well
Winnings: ~-78$
Winnings EV: ~-75$
Time played:28 hours
Rakeback:Cleared like 250$ or so from all bonus collected through year, and some deposit bonus
