So, I have addressed this issue, and am enjoying the luxury that I can write and share whatever I like on here, whilst also having my personal paper journal for my own private thoughts. And that suits me fine!
And in fact there is some progress for my blog as well, since my good friend, Miki, who is hoping to go into illustration as a career, and who has massive talent, is creating a header for my blog. I have to hold my hands up and admit that the current one is just a bit of a rushed job on Paint, because I wanted something there that was more than just text. Miki and I are collaborating ideas at the moment and we will hopefully have created something soon. Exciting!

In other life news, I am about to finish my first proper clinical placement, which has been in psychiatry for six weeks. After my confidence blip before Christmas, I was feeling quite nervous about starting this placement. The thought of taking a history from a nice old lady was daunting enough for me, let alone somebody who was potentially psychotic or irritable. To add to this, my lack of experience of the subject had painted me a picture of a very negative place that was lacking in hope for the patients. It turned out to be quite the opposite, and I have really enjoyed this placement to the point that I am considering it as a career. I have felt very privileged to be let into the lives (which are often unbelievably troubled) of people who have never met me, but just trust that I will try my hardest to understand how they are feeling, and to help in any way I can...
