#100daysoflanguages (dutch)

day five, memorize a poem

onze ziekten / our diseases

poet: anne vegter, 2020

translator: florian duijsens, 2021

zoals ik kan schrikken van een stopbord zie ik onze overeenkomsten:

just as i can startle at a stop sign i can see our similarities:

wij het project zonder ziekten, ik als afbeelding: jij die mij omlijnde

we the project without diseases, me as an image: you who delineated me

het zijn niet steeds de keerlingen die het verschil maken, ook wij,

it’s not always the converts that make the difference, we, too,

in ongemakkelijke thuissituaties, vragen naar de scheidslijn tussen

in uncomfortable domestic settings, ask about the boundary between

stem en verlangen, die ons heeft verdeeld, ons heeft verjaagd,

voice and desire, that divided us, chased us off,

ons uiteengedreven, de weg verlegd van middendoor naar buitenaf

scattered us, diverted the road from the center to the outside

en dat werd onze ziekte, maar je springt als een naakte big, je springt

and that became our disease, yet you jump like a naked piggy, you jump

als een prijs, je bent ontvangen en je laat de laatste ziekte aan mij

like a prize, you’ve been picked up and you leave the last disease to me

(dutch poems are v hard to find but god is this one so good)

first dissection! i felt so cool bc the guys in my group were scared to touch the specimen let alone dissect it + they said they could see me as a doctor + i identified all the brain structures with ease + i drew a simplified reference photo with labels for everyone + my lab partners complimented my handwriting 😭🥹??

also did some studying and bought some new cosmetics!

life as a nursing student: july highlights so far 🌟

learned how to do bed baths/bed changes

challenging myself in school + being efficient

lots of sweet treats

spent lots of time with my bf

got my first smiski

reflected on adulthood, self acceptance, and relationships

prioritizing what deserves my energy: my health, reciprocated love, growing in school, and mindfulness

today’s growth & school updates °₊ ૢ∗ˈ‧₊°

🖇️ i am adapting thru new personal challenges. it is a lot of mental energy but it is worth it to do my best!!! i’m glad that i’m thinking things through with love, patience, and critical reasoning <3 🧠

🖇️ life really does just come down to what brings the most peace, growth, and fulfillment.

🖇️ releasing perfectionism with school! imperfect and done is better than nothing at all! i am also reminding myself of why i’m studying nursing, why i love it, why i’m passionate to get better at it, who i want to serve with it—framing my education as a privilege, not a burden 🫀

recent updates <3

i finished my first school session of the year last week! i got an A on my anatomy and physiology final 🥹 i’ve become more efficient and resourceful with studying now that i’m used to my program’s structure. love that!

other developments: i had free time after my session ended and literally wrote a research paper on how i’ve been exploring my sexuality/relationship dynamics using marvel names (peter, shuri, mj) LOL a girl has hobbies!

looking forward to the session ahead <3 it’s my last semester of doing gen ed. excitedddd

saturday, november 4th 🩶 yesterday!

checked out a new coffee shop + brought my journal! ☕️ i didn’t get pics of my schoolwork but i finished a lab on muscles and an ethics paper. the paper was different than what i’m used to bc it’s not as concrete as physiology/pathology, but i had fun using a new frame of thinking!
