What I'm Grateful For in 2k19 ♡

Googled "heart text symbol" to use them as bullets for my bullet points hehe. 

Instead of doing a regular year in review for 2019,
 I've decided to jot down things i'm grateful for in 2019 
so here it goes:

♡ I'm grateful for being able to travel/ go on vacations. 
I love travelling, 
I've made a goal to travel at least 3 times a year when I'm earning my own money 
but I'm still a full time dental student now so i get financial support from my family
(also really grateful for that) 
I literally ended 2018 & started 2019 in Vietnam. 
(traveled 3 times in 2018 too, just for my own record la- 
Krabi with friends, Bangkok & Vietnam with my family)
This year i got to end 2019 in Taiwan with my family.
I also traveled to Bukit Fraser with my family, & Penang with my friends.
I also went to Lifegen's Camp in Malacca, can't miss that out. 
perhaps I should do a year in review post haha 

♡ I'm grateful for my family's health. 
mainly my parents, of course. 
i do not want to go into the details of that
but i'm just really grateful :) 

♡ I'm grateful for completing my third year of dental school. 
During my first year, second semester, i remembered vividly,
i struggled to cope with the study load
there wasn't tuition classes I can attend like how i used to, in high school, 
it takes a lot of self-discipline, hard-work & finding the correct way to study of course, 
to fully comprehend the subjects I was taking. 
fast forward to third year, i struggled a lot lesser. 
found ways to make studying a lot more enjoyable 
& my grades improved
(not trying to brag, just grateful that things got much better) 

♡ I'm grateful for my clinical partner & all the patients who trusted me to treat them. 
third year was also the beginning of our clinical year
i had a really great partner - Kah Heng & i really wouldn't have been so efficient 
(especially in terms of prostho work, without KH, we issued dentures for 3 patients hello!)
I'm also grateful that all the patients i've met are really nice people
some of them even introduced even more patients to me 
i feel such a sense of achievement when this happens



♡ I'm grateful for my wonderful housemates. 
I've moved out from the MAHSA hostel 
& rented a townhouse with Kamand & Peter.  
I've heard stories about how troublesome it is to have incompatible housemates 
I've been living with my current housemates since Sept 2018 
& we've been conflict-free since Sept 2018
& i really enjoy living with them 
thank you, housemates ;) 

♡ I'm grateful for the house I'm renting. 
as i've mentioned, i moved out to a townhouse
i actually moved again, into another townhouse (with Kamand & Peter ofc) 
our first house was really basic & overpriced, 
we only rented it because choices were limited back then 
it's been 4 months since we moved out & i don't think anyone has moved in yet 
proves how shitty the house is lol
we absolutely love our current house
it's really beautiful & well furnished
& we're just so so glad we moved 

♡ I'm grateful for the friendships I still own. 
i am never a people pleaser, i don't do small talks much,
i won't call myself an introvert, 
but i'm definitely not an extrovert
but i have friends who i've been friends with since the beginning of dental school 
& some even before dental school
& those who are still around are truly the real ones 

♡ I'm grateful for being able to make peace with myself. 
I remembered overthinking a lot about a lot of things, 
i know it sounds vague
but those things doesn't even matter now 
there's no need to worry so much 
because everyday is different 
everyday is a new day to be a better version of myself

♡ I'm grateful for His grace. 
& I can't wait to see what He has planned for me in 2020

(this entire entry was written in January, 
I have this habit of keeping things in draft instead of posting them, 
unless they are sponsored post haha, 
but yeah, 
stay tuned to see what else i drafted 
& stay safe during this COVID season.) 

here's a selfie taken in Taiwan Dec 2019 that brings me joy
because i'll be reminded of how exciting it was
to see cherry blossom for the first time,
even tho it wasn't in full bloom,
was really pretty. 




Love
Sheunny
