New Year - 2015.

Happy New Year everyone! :) 

It's time of the year when you reflect back the events that happened throughout the year, things & people you're grateful for. I'm just so happy that I've passed 2 subjects & one more to go. Super grateful about it. :) 

Anyway, 2014 has been an amazing year. I've finished 1st year medical school & soon going to second year second semester. Been through so much hardships especially here in Russia. & I'm always so grateful for having very supportive family & friends here to go through all the good times & the bad times together. 

I'd say December 2014 is the month that's my least favourite. Yes, I know it's a festive month, a month which everyone's excited because it's a holiday month & stuff like that. To me it's my least favourite because this month has been so stressful & dramatic. Rushing to finish all the class tests before final exams, & you have ridiculous people whom they don't study at all but still pass the finals. & you? Pulling all nighter, countless sleepless night & try your best to squeeze as much information as possible. Then again you tell yourself, life is never fair. 

December is also a month that I have issues with one of my friend. I know it's just a small matter. & I also know that I should learn to be more patient, I should be more mature to handle things & etc. I also realised that when you dislike somebody, you must always remind yourself to never ever repeat the things that they do, & do not be a hypocrite. Learn from their mistake & carry on with life. I guess I just have to bear that in mind, every single day. 

But you know there's also time where you are nice to people most of the time & they just start to take things for granted. Pushing your buttons as though that's completely normal. Sometimes I can't help but to wonder people just don't realise it or they are just genuinely stupid. & I told myself enough is enough, I gonna stood up for myself. 

Well, aside from all this sad & stressful event, I'm kinda excited for this new year. Bought a new planner & hope that I'm more organise this year. Like you know, new year new me kinda shits. Haha. & before I end my post, gonna do some throwbacks. 

One of the Christmas parties I've attended. Had a great time, met some new friends. 

It's still not too late to still be in Christmas mood because technically Russians celebrate Christmas on 7th January. :D so in a way I'm kinda like celebrating Christmas twice haha.

On a side note, I'm super grateful that I've an amazing boyfriend. 1 year 1 month together & still going strong. Trust me, without him I wouldn't be as far as I am today. He is always so patient, understanding & loving. Throughout the relationship he always taught me how to become a better person, taught me to be patient, push me out of my comfort zone for instance go out to socialise with people because I am a shy bear, & always encourage me to be myself. It's a blessings to have him with me throughout the year no doubt. :) 

Before I end this post, I'd like to wish you guys a very happy new year. I hope everyone have a great year ahead, don't give up & best of luck with everything you do. :) 

Lots of love,

Van. :)
