Being a student nurse during Covid-19

~ Before I write about my personal experiences, I just want to acknowledge that this pandemic is having an impact on everyone but in completely different ways. We need to remember to be empathetic to each persons struggles because none of us have experienced a situation like this before. Lives have been completely shifted for…

Normal People

So the latest show to binge watch is on BBC iPlayer called Normal People.It's based off a book by Sally Rooney and being as pretentious as I am I decided to read it before watching the series (also I needed the challenge to see how quickly I could finish it, with just under 300 pages…

good vibes only?

So i recently saw a post online which described the phrase "good vibes only" as being toxic. There is a very obvious point here that i think we throw around the word toxic far too much nowadays without properly thinking through the situation or meaning behind it and I think it goes very much in…

the character of Love

*SPOILERS FOR THE NETFLIX SERIES YOU but not actually that many* YOU so before I start I want to clarify I will mainly be focusing on season 2 because it has just come out and it's been awhile since I watched the first season! this is also written before i've read any online comments about…

loving completely (anxious)

third year!!

So here we go! I'm about to start my third and final year at university. I hate to say the very common thing of "omg you won't believe how fast time goes" but it's scarily accurate. I managed to survive the dreaded first year of unexciting halls, antisocial flatmates (myself included), very minimal friends, joined…

complex mental health in the media

So as an avid sci fi fan, movie and TV show lover and mental health student nurse I find it interesting the connections you can make from plots. the various interpretations that can come from a piece of media such as films or shows are endless, behind its synopsis and (sometimes) obvious story its trying…

motivations

So this post is inspired by this video by Carrie Hope Fletcher which was part of her "May, myself and I" project which I also attempted to do on my Instagram - corporealdays. (I've just started Hannah Wittons Dear June too) I've recently become a fan of the whole idea of starting any changes you…
