Hello! My name is Miriam, but practically everyone calls me Mim. I recently graduated from a BSN program and am practicing as a nurse on a pulmonary/renal medical unit. During nursing school, I didn’t have a lot of free time, and what free time I had, I spent sleeping or hanging out with friends. Because of that, I am still trying to figure out what hobbies and activities I most enjoy filling my free time with. I do enjoy being active and being outdoors – hiking, camping, swimming, skiing – although I don’t get outside as often as I like because as it turns out, as a nurse, I still only sleep and hang out with friends (as much as one can during a pandemic) on my off days.
On top of just starting my nursing career, I also just recently moved to a new city. I know I’m not the only one to move to a new place alone during a pandemic, nonetheless, it doesn’t make it any less difficult to settle in and make connections in a new place. BUT I am enjoying my cute little town and all it has to offer and hope to continue exploring it as long as I’m here!
Some random facts about me: I love warm weather and hope to live by the beach someday. I just adopted a kitten named Beau and she is the most cuddly thing ever. I have no idea what kind of nurse I want to be; I have a new dream job every day. I love to swim and swam competitively in high school. I studied abroad in Europe and India during college and can’t wait to travel again once it’s safe to do so.
This blog will contain a wide variety of posts. I hope to use it as a space to document all the new hobbies I want to try as well as write about topics that are important to me and just braindump what’s on my mind. I’ll cover topics from sustainable living to DIYs to travel to nursing and wellness and everything in between. It’s going to be a hodgepodge of all my current, future, and potential interests – it’s gonna be fun 🙂
The first time you do anything it’s not going to be good. That’s certainly true about this blog at least. I’ve been wanting to start a blog for awhile, so I decided to just go for it instead of waiting for it to be the absolute best blog before I publish posts. I have a lot of different ideas for what I want to write about. I’m still learning about the blog writing process and how everything works. Regardless, I hope you’ll join me on this journey and that you’ll find at least one of my posts entertaining or helpful. Lastly, I hope to connect with everyone reading this! One of the main reasons I’m interested in starting a blog is for the community. So, don’t be afraid to reach out and connect with me or let me know what kind of posts you want to see!
Talk to you soon,
M
