Thank You List

1. My utmost gratitude goes to , of course, God for giving continuous blessings throughout my whole journey. Never did He put me in a situation that I wasnt able to handle and I was always "saved" in difficult situations and hard times. On top of that, He always answers my prayers in ways better than I asked for.

2.Secondly, I owe my parents countless thank you(s), in fact, I owe it all to them. From the moment of making the decision to further studies in medicine till my last final paper, it was them who was there beside me all the time. From little things like adapting into lifestyle changes and dealing with rude Russians, to being scared of failing exams, we went through it together. I was happy, so were they, I was stressed, they were even more. That is why on my graduation day, I purposely set up a theme color for us as it is not only me who should be honored for the day, but them as well since they were a huge part of this whole 7 year journey. They deserved it well!

3. My teachers. There are so many of them to list from my pre-medical year to my 6th year. Each one of them has taught me everything they had, of course, in many different ways of theirs. Some I like, some I didn't really agree with their method, some I find being too strict, even some I was scared of, but at the end of the day, I realized that what I know today is the sum of their hard work and effort. Hence, they too, need to be thanked.

3. My relatives. Even though we meet only once a year, but my grandparents, my uncles/aunts, my cousins and the rest always make sure that they are up to date with my well being and studies. Before my finals begin they will pray for me, to make things easy for me, to make sure I'm healthy during that period and so that I can make it through with no hindrance. They wont be relieved till I tell them the good news that I passed, and starts to count days till I come home. This, has been going on since the first year till the last.

How it has always been, and always will

4. My Gurlz. People say sisters are best friends sent from heaven. In my case, they are my sisters sent from heaven. They are the reason that I can keep walking even I fell down to my lowest point. They've been there with me through thick and thin. They've been my reminder for every single thing, tiny or big. There wasn't any moment I felt alone, because they always will just pop up in front of me before I could even feel lonely. We had a great time during our days in Kursk and I'm thankful that it is with these people I created memories of my university life. They've been my sidekicks all the while and million of thanks would never be enough. They can never be replaced. XOXO

5. My Ice-cream - Dyna. We don't meet everyday, as much as I meet The Gurlz. Our daily schedule is totally different and we rarely meet in between classes. But she is the one kinda friend that no matter how different our lives can be, she will always be there every time I need her. Even if I try to hide anything from her, she'll know it before I could even hide it. She knows me well till the level that whatever people say about me, she's able to judge whether its true or not without even asking me. Not just about being confident, she's that such of a great friend. She was the first friend to approach me when I'm down (I had a quite tough time adjusting during my pre-medical year) and she was very commited to make sure I'm happy here in Kursk and doing fine. Thanks to such a commitment like that, I manage to pull my way through and graduate med-school. So Ice-cream, here is my huge thanks to you. Love you to bits!

How bestie T got the name .

6. Bestie T. You've made me become a tough cookie and you were always there especially at those crucial moments when I was incapable to handle things alone, like I thought I could. You're level of patience in dealing with the mounting headaches that a person like me can cause, deserve a huge respect. Honestly, that level of patience is like no other!

The Unpredictables, with their undying devoted supporters

7. My Unpredictable team-mates which I heart very much. Even though it has been only 2years but we became like sisters since forever. Also, another great Kelantanese I met over there - Der. No one could ever know how blessed I feel to meet such a great person like you! Also, my other juniors who made it even harder for me to bid good bye to Kursk. Owh, and a special thanks goes for their willingness to bring back my stuffs (a total of 100kg, Der himself brought back almost 50kg). Where else to find a friend like that, huh? I wont trade for life!

Batchmates & groupmates - hope we all will make great doctors!

8. Lastly, to every single person I've met over there, every counter has its own significance and I'm glad that I've met many different people along the way. God bless everyone!
