Finding life

In 5 days, I am officially a nurse. When I think about my career, I decided to have a love-hate relationship with hmm let's call my career a "her". So, I decided to have a love-hate relationship with her.  I remembered during my time as a nursing student, whenever me and my friends finished our shift, we would hang out and I think, all we talk about is our work. Our patients, our workload, literally everything we did that day as a nurse.  I then realised that I don't want to be like that anymore. I want to find another life other than my job, and I want to talk about other stuff too. And I want to be able to leave my job at my workplace after I finished my shift.  And I'm glad that my partner is in a different work-line than me. He opened up my views and perception and because we barely understand each other's work, we end up talking about other stuff which is really good for my mental stability.  Maybe I should start taking music classes a

Discomfort

It was 3 months ago since I was diagnosed with PID, after 1 year of suffering from chronic back pain. Praise The Lord, it didn't worsen, but I've seen better days. There were times when I woke up in the middle of the night because my back hurts, and it's hard to wake up in the morning as my body would get cramps.

Feelings...

I want to write about it because I want to remember this feeling. Funny how glances exchanged 6 years ago would turn into big laughter in the car, crying over the phone, fighting over the stupidest stuff you've ever heard of and the most important thing, the feeling when our eyes met, your smile and everything that comes with you.  One of the earliest memory I had of you was your back in the stadium where a rugby tournament was held, and that sidelong glance. And right now the latest was your smile, as we said our goodbyes, with smiles on our faces and flowers in our hearts, 4 hours prior to this post is written.  We've met and part ways before, but I guess this time, it was at the right time. I'm in the best version of myself, and you, deserves the best. " It's your name that I called in my sleep, and if you can grant me comfort, so be it." Everything about today is perfect. I rap to the rhythm of your beatbox, laugh to your silly joke
