Hey there, thought id update on my new job - recently started in a very different area of nursing ITU! Very different to ward nursing. Currently, im just enjoying being a student again, learning the ropes and being slghtly scared that in only few more shifts it will be me on my own, or maybe my patients should be scared!
Thats all for now...

Such a good holiday
Wow im back.
Been for a weeks holiday while inbetween changing jobs - did some walking in the Lake District with my cousin. Was a really good time. We just walked to various hostels where the rest of the day was spent drying out and reading (TV and internet not generally provided). Although a walking holiday (yes we did climb some mountains) it was ultimately relaxing and generally the whole day was really peaceful. It allowed me to get my head around some things (life in London) which was good. I would highly reccomend the lake district to anyone looking to get away from it all.
Started in my new job this week! Seems great!

Last shift in this job!
Yikes, it really is the last shift that I will do in the hospital im working in. Its a night and it quiet which is nice (for the uninitiated - saying its "quiet" is a jinx that even I cannot deny - it makes the shift become busy - so "quiet" is not a word we use - im only saying it because its 5am in the morning). I start in one week in intensive care in a big London hospital. Looking forward to it, but I really need to clear my head and relax first so its off to the lakes to do some walking!
Thats all for now...

A small fish in a big pond
I realised something the other day, and it may amuse you. I was on the phone to an event organiser, trying to arrange our charity a spot in thier exhibition. I realised then, that in terms of a charity, we really are a small fish in a big pond. A little dishartning considering my great expectations! I can hear you say "you had to see it sometime"!
The truth is we are so wrapped up in the things we love to do that we fail to see the bigger picture. In one sense, this is good, as we aim high and expect much, in another sense, we misplace our ambitions, thinking we can go higher than we can expect to.
The healthy way through of course is to see oursleves as something, aim high and learn from those who have been there before us. "One small spark can burn down the forest of injustice." and that is what I believe!
As I do more work to further our goals as a charity, I meet more and more people and small organisations doing good work for those in disadvantaged positions in this world, and together a huge impact is being made!

A walk in the park
Ok, so this picture was taken at a freinds house, but I was surprized the other day going for a walk in regents park in the morning. It was so nice, and it was like the flowers were just posing for my camera! See more pics on my flickr page (link below). Nature has a way of showing itself off, it is definitly an awesome thing!
