Lunch break sketch. ย
Finally realising that comparing myself to others will get me nowhere (better late than never). Yesterday found out my closest friend on my nursing course has siblings and family membes who are registered nurses, Iโd always wondered how it came so naturally to her. This has happened a few times, I get envious of how at ease they are and then find out nursing runs in their families, or that they just have loads of previous experience.
Everyone has different experiences, knowledge, ages, rate of development and so on. Instead of spending my time being envious of someone else, I should have spent that time pushing myself further.
Have done a lot of reflecting after my 10 weeks placement. Realising I should explain how I work/tick/function and not just assume my mentors will understand me, and know how I learn.
Next placement I need to be on the ball! Not eyeing up the other student nurse.
Going outside for some fresh air is impossible even outside a hospital because THERE ARE SMOKERS EVERYWHERE ffs can I live
Yooo forgot how awesome retail therapy is, bought loads of items I've wanted for ages. Gonna look and feel boss. ๐
Haven't been posting on here much but a FUCK THE TORIES post is needed on my blog to be honest.
You know you're a nurse when...
You empty your pockets at the end of shift and find 2 unused lancettes, a packet of crackers, a decent sized stack of alcohol preps and a pen that doesnโt belong to you.
Be careful. You may pay a dear price for taking another nurseโs pen. ๐
Plastic caps to IV tubing, a dry erase marker, mini roll of tape, random patient labels, a granola bar you didnโt get to eat, play doh, bubbles, animal crackers, frozen stickers, temporary tattoosโฆ
Refused colace or senna, IV caps, 2x2 gauze, IV tubing labels (filled out, but never applied to tubingโฆ whoops), vial caps of many shades, tiny bottle of nitro, glucometer test stripsโฆ

That feel when the Busted reunion is documented on ITV News, you get over excited about buying tickets, then see your mate has already messaged you excited offering a ticket. Is this being 22
