Passions

Sometimes when everything piles on your plate it is hard to image what really it is that you enjoy. With school speeding up and slowing down all at once, I have realized that in a couple short months (not even) I will be done school.  I will be done writing exams, done studying, done watching Netflix all day....

There are a couple of passions that I am excited to work on once everything is finished with school. One is writing of course, and I have maintained the blog throughout my schooling career, and I do want to continue it, but I also want to write for the sake of writing again.  I used to do creative writing all the time, not for anyone but myself. I loved making up stories and reading them and looking back on them too.  I just haven't had the time or felt 'free' to do it because of other writing obligations. 

The second passion is to work with type one diabetics in the community. I love connecting with people and sharing my story or giving advice. I also love hearing the stories of others. I want to work with teens with type one diabetes and I hope to find an outlet to do so.   

Thirdly, I want to read. Not a textbook or a peer reviewed article or a quick buzz feed thing. I want to read the books that are on my shelf that I got half way through because I had to do something else. I want to be able to snuggle up on my couch and read a book guilt free and not have to take notes because I have a paper to write.

As much as it is going to be hard transitioning from classroom to who knows where... I am excited to start new things and work on new projects.

  1. Hey Kayla, I read your blog and I though of you when I saw this item. it looks great for carrying your pump and other D supplies. In fact it can hold up to 3 pounds of stuff. its called the girly go garter https://girlygogarter.refersion.com/c/f9f4

    1. Thanks Chelsea! I have a few things like this. I tend to like to wear it in my bra even though I have all these different contraptions!

    2. oh I have 2 from animas . 1 for my calf which works with pants and one for my thigh. but the thigh one from animas is not nearly as good. could wearing it in your bra cause issues since the cgm receiver is the pump ? they say you should not put your phone in your bra so maybe not your pump either if it is your cgm receiver ?
