Things You Took For Granted Before Becoming Nursing

1- Painting your nails. Why can’t I have pretty nails???

2- Wearing your hair down. My hair no longer knows how to do this. 

3- Peeing regularly. Bathroom breaks? Ha.

4- Good posture. 

5- A morning lie in. Literally haven’t had a good lie in for 3 years.

6- Having money. There’s broke students, and then there’s broke student nurses.

7- Jewellery. I MISS MY RINGS!

8- Being more available for social events. Uhh i can due tuesday the 31st of february?

9- Family and friends NOT asking you medical questions all the damn time. No grandma I cannot diagnose the weird mark on your leg. 

10- Eating at reasonable times. My breakfast is either at 5:15am or 11am, there’s no in between.  

let go of people who hurt you. if someone doesn’t make you feel happy and bring out the best version of you then they probably aren’t worth having around.

no matter what I just can't seem to get enough of you.
