If you're studying list after list of words, you'll probably forget them quickly.
Memorizing words is much easier when the word is one you consider useful at the time you see it, when you need to use it regularly as output or when you see it regularly in reading input or hear it in oral input.
In other words, memorizing is easier when it's frequent and important to you.
To learn vocabulary, read a lot (every day) and write a lot (every day); do this for many different reasons and on different subjects.
Learning vocabulary is a long process; it doesn't happen from day to night!
