 so what do you do when you finish uni and you're officially finished all of your exams and everything and you're waiting for your pin? it is one of those where it's sort of like you're in limbo waiting and waiting and waiting for everything to be official but I've been doing a lot of volunteering I've been doing a lot of extracurricular stuff I was Elsa some of you might have seen on my Instagram and things I was Elsa for the day at our project give them a fair I'll put the picture here just in case you didn't see it it was amazing and then over the weekend I had the weekend off I've picked up a few bank shifts over the week and today I'm off to uni to talk about politics we have a journalist coming to the uni and they wanted to interview some people about what it's really like out on placements and how the struggle is very real out there in the NHS and the staff shortages so that's gonna be really interesting I will update you what's happened after that and then the rest of the week I have off I haven't got much going on and waiting for some more shifts before I move because I really need money and that's it that's it for now so I have filled my space with a lot of extracurricular activities technically they're not extracurricular anymore so I'm not at uni but you know what I mean I've been doing a lot to fill up the gaps and fill up my time whilst waiting for my pin and start my new job in January and then I've got two weeks off guys over Christmas and I'm going away I don't know where I'm going it's a surprise so I will video that as well but yeah I just wanted to do a little update what I've been doing and what it's like when you're just waiting for your pin it's not much fun guys so that's me back from my interview at the uni it was really really nice and it was really nice to see my friend and I don't mind I don't think she minds me saying her name so I'm gonna say it my friend Kirsty card she is on Facebook she's on Instagram she actually works for Birmingham Live now which is amazing so she was actually doing my interview I didn't even know I didn't recognise her I didn't oh my god it was amazing it was really nice to see Kirsty anyway and she was doing the interviews for Birmingham Live at the uni all about the NHS and the staffing levels and who were all voting in the elections it was sort of an insight to that so it was a little bit nerve-racking because I don't like publicly announcing who I'm voting for but I did and yeah it went really well I think it went all right she didn't ask me too many difficult questions they were all standard and I felt like I answered as much as I could I think but yeah all in all it's been a good day so yeah so the rest of the week I'm going to be doing book reviews I've got a few book reviews to do which I'm gonna post separately in a different vlog have a look for them and yeah that is my week until the big move this is it excuse the face excuse the PJs but I'm finishing my packing today and my last thing that I'm doing taking these bits down it's really emotional guys but here we go that's it done finished packing and now I'm off to my new adventure down in Portsmouth with my new job starting in January which is really really exciting but this is still sad it's really sad to believe in somewhere that I've made friends I've spent the last three years of my life at university dedicated nursing well to be dedicated to being a student nurse and now it's all just come to an end I don't know why I'm emotional but it's really emotional but I know that I've got an amazing future ahead of me I'm really excited to get into my new job I just need to add it is almost the time of the month for me so this might be why I'm so emotional but it's just so sad seeing everything so better but yes onwards and upwards to my newly qualified nurse post down in Portsmouth and I've got some really exciting plans ahead of me and I've got a really exciting future and I've got a load of things I really want to positive change that I want to make hopefully it's going to happen we'll see but here's to the next chapter guys I just want to thank you all so so so much for following my journey this is not the end although I don't know why but it feels like it right now but this is not the end I'm going to keep vlogging I'm going to show you my journey it's show you what my future holds hopefully do some vlogs that's going to help you on your way as well motivate you keep you going on this journey but this isn't the end this is just a new chapter for me and just want to say thank you thank you so much for those youth that have been there from the very start I appreciate you and I'm gonna cry again but some of you have followed my journey from the start and it's just so nice it like people don't understand how how much it really means to me and those people that I've met you can see how genuinely like just how much you wore my soul to hear all of the positive things and to hear that I've inspired quite a few of you to come into nursing to keep going to keep motivated and it's just so lovely that you've been there throughout my whole of my journey you've watched my stories and that I've helped you to do that I've encouraged you I've motivated you in some way and I've inspired you and I think that's just amazing because that's why I created this channel I didn't create it for to be YouTube famous or to get loads of money there's no money in YouTube guys I don't do my vlogs for that I do my vlogs because I want to make change I want to make a difference and if any of you are down south give me a shout give me a wave and we'll have to meet up and say hello and do amazing things down south together because that would make a day so don't be a stranger give me a shout give me a comment give me a like inbox me whatever you want to do just let me know you're down south and we can sort something out that would be amazing
