I went to visit a former work mentor before she leaves the area, and we had an amazing time catching up. She’s so nice. I’m so grateful to God for making our meeting go safely and well.

I also met two others I met during that internship. I am grateful to God for making me catch both of them even though I hadn’t planned it in advance.

My mom and I then went shopping. I am grateful to God for making it fun and safe.

It seems like my study’s results are pretty good. I am so grateful to God for this.

Because my department is amazingly accommodating, they all wear masks for meetings I attend. I wanted to attend a larger meeting, though, where people other than my group attend. I was worried about being exposed to germs, since people don’t usually wear masks at this larger meeting. But I decided to attend anyway. When I arrived, everyone was wearing masks, just for me! I had prayed to God asking for His protection, and He answered my prayers in the most loving way and perfectly. I am not worthy, and I am so grateful. I am also grateful to God for surrounding me with such loving people. I am also grateful to Our Blessed Virgin Mary for her intercessions.

I spent a lot of time and effort on a project, but it looked like it was going to fail. I had an emergency meeting, and after talking with people more senior than me, it looks like it’s possible not as bad as I thought! I am very grateful to God for this.

I filed my taxes early this year. I am grateful to God for making it go well.

I received so many happy events from God today! First, I had submitted a paper to an academic journal a couple months ago, and I got a very favorable response! This is my first time ever getting this far on a project. My professors also congratulated me, which made me happy. The journal’s response is wonderful news for me, and I am so grateful to God for this gift. It is all His doing, and I am not worthy.

I had many meetings today and they all went well. I am grateful to God for this.

My professor gave me the opportunity to socialize with another professor who was visiting. My professor takes such good care of me. Her kindness made me so happy. Also, my meeting with the visiting professor went well. I am so grateful to God for all of this.

I received a wonderful gift from my professor out of the blue. It made me so happy that I keep smiling. My professor is extraordinarily kind. I am so grateful to God for giving me such an amazing professor.

I went to an in-person meeting that I organize. On the way, somewhat on a whim, I decided to remind people not to come if they’re sick because of my health condition (I had announced this rule in our first meeting but was reminding them again). I then got an email from a new member saying that they didn’t know this rule and that they’d not attend this meeting in-person because they felt unwell. I had completely forgotten we had a new member. If I hadn’t sent the reminder, they would have come. I am so grateful to God for making me send out this reminder.

My dad was visiting and went back this day. I am very grateful to God for making his stay pleasant.

I had applied to a committee, and I was accepted! I am grateful to God for this.

I met with a professor and got invited to work on a cool project. I am grateful to God for this opportunity.
