I can understand having departure testing in a shopping mall, but to also provision arrivals testing there seems quite foolish if you’re expecting me to self isolate? Had to go through a major dept store and all their holiday shoppers to get to the facility. Not keen on that plan

Saw my family this week for the first time in nearly three years. Got to see my newest niece, play endless rounds of Uno with the nephews, catch up in person with my siblings AND hug my parents. Less awesome, the widespread lack of arrival PCR tests available tomorrow.

First shift as an RN in the books. Very glad it was an early as I regrettably chose to try breaking in a new pair of hospital shoes. #woesaboutthetoes #putthesuperinsupernumerary

Attempted to put the just boiled kettle into the fridge this morning rather than back on the base. Apparently I could use supervision in more areas than just my dissertation! #putsthesuperinsupervisor #clevergirl #butfirstcoffee

@essexsarahlee Ah, the cleaning, perpetuating snacker is my (sometimes literal) sweet spot here.

@LisaChalklen @StNurseProject I’m all for it!!

[Katie Tingley @_KatieTingley_]

@WeStudentNurse @lucy_uo Indeed!

Just paid off the last tranche of my student loan for my current degree. I thought I’d feel better about this than I do. Perhaps it’s waiting to hear from the income office that it wasn’t enough (again) due to atrocious exchange rates. #defeated #wheresmyroi #sadgradstudent

There is no medical personnel comprised cover band out there called Diff Lipid. One of you get on this... STAT. (Yes, I googled to make sure that this awesomeness didn't already exist.)

@Matthew0sb0rne I think I still have the .pptx and now I’d be well curious to see this comic version you put on.

@Matthew0sb0rne I did a presentation on wordplay and puns in my first year for the personal development module. #offandpunning

@Matthew0sb0rne Aha, takes “guts” to talk about Peyer’s patches, I take it? #ancoraimparo

Today has been sponsored by the letter I. Internet woes, impostor syndrome, and inarticulate language. “I” can try again tomorrow.
