Comment down below and tell me what time you usually wake up on you days off 🛌 😴 I usually sleep in until 9 😂

[@Riri_chaey]

I wake up like 1pm or sometimes at 11

[@tyreciaw7120]

I sleep until 9 too 😂

[@radasmrr]

7! Usually wake up 330 for work, i work in Aerospace ☺️

[@chenoasimpson5733]

Depends on what day i have off, but probably around 11:30am-12:30pm. 😅 Thank you for uploading, Miki! I appreciate your effort into making content for us! ✨️

[@chescadayalo]

I usually get breakouts on my face especially near my scalp like the forehead because of dandruff, and sometimes chin aswell because i think it is where my baby hairs end up touching, so when i started using selsun blue it works on me so well as i never have any breakouts like before.

[@katehosler5703]

Miki you seem to be in a really good place rn! I’m happy for you! I’m in nursing school and everyone makes nursing seem awful , but your videos encourage me. Thanks 💗

[@adaw.8487]

Omg yes, i have 2 years left of nursing school and some of the video content I see on nursing is so depressing :( It's so refreshing to see a happier view on nursing and that there are many options :)

[@sabrinasultana1326]

Same here😢

[@ew6367]

I work in an inpatient setting on a palliative care ward and I’m so ready for a change. This has reminded me it’s okay to make a change to keep my work / life balance working for me!

[@AstroZombie1]

Tired of the OFITG patients?

[@ew6367]

@@AstroZombie1 more tired of the ward setting and sporadic shift work to be honest!

[@BeYourBestSkin]

Hey Miki, fellow nurse here! I’ve battled with mask acne until my dermatologist recommended panoxyl acne wash. I used the 10% and have not had any pimples since I started using. Granted I’ve also been using clindamycin face lotion as well.

[@cahanaxundova4317]

I love nurses, doctors so if you are a nurse or any doctor ❤️❤️❤️❤️BLESS.YOU❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@BeYourBestSkin]

@@cahanaxundova4317 thank you ❤️

[@WifeNonGamerPlays]

Ratio is killing us nurses. A lot of nurses left the bedside because of this problem. Im still doing bedside because I like the schedule of only working 3 to 4 times a week.

[@aratigurung3]

This is such a well put together day in the life of a nurse Vlog - very engaging & real 💕💕

[@suzymaines2757]

Thank you for the dandruff recommendations!! Love your video. I’m currently transitioning out of the bedside and I’m super excited.

[@nurselafame8663]

I totally relate to your comments about how we use critical thinking in nursing, always! ☺️

[@asmaa_vlog_85]

I feel happy when I get a notification that you have uploaded a new video 🥰😘😍. Thank you very much for uploading the video. Your videos fill me with so much positive energy 🍓♥️🥰😍♥️🍓🥰

[@ibrmk2610]

Oh hello I’m one of ur subscribers

[@bhumikag3890]

Whenever I see this, the excitement of being a surgeon gushes through my body... Can't wait to get into medical school One more year 😩

[@catherineb6889]

how are you doing?

[@madisonshoemaker]

Romans 3:23 (ESV) says: “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” and Romans 6:23 (ESV) says: “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” The good news is that Jesus Christ, the son of God, who is one with God, came to the earth from His place in heaven and was crucified on a cross for the atonement of our sins. He lived a sinless life, and rose from the dead on the third day after His death! 🙌✨He took our place and payed our debt. John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Romans 10:9 (ESV) says: “because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” If you place your faith in Jesus, He will forgive you of your sins and you will be saved from hell and you will be given eternal life. Jesus is The Way, The Truth, and The Life. The Bible is Gods word to us. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in the Bible are the gospels of Jesus and His teachings on how to follow Him. Jesus is coming soon. Repent of your sins and follow Jesus. God bless you! 💕

[@CaptureItRememberIt7]

I use retinol at night especially in the mask area and use a really light moisturizer for work. Don’t forget spf if you’re going to use retinol though and if your retinol is too strong it can cause breakouts as well. So far this helps my acne go away quicker but otherwise I’m still stuck on the same boat girl 😷🙅🏻‍♀️

[@nikitali]

aww this was such a good video!! super glad to see creators like you

[@sahelimanna5978]

Hey Miki...... I'm a nursing student.....And sometimes I gonna be very depressed..then i watching your video....and your lifestyle also motivate me to improve my acceptance and confidence.........😍💌 .....Love from India..

[@isabeltorres8717]

Amazing content thank you Miki, so glade for Kevin to meet with his mates!!!! You are a awesome couple 🌹

[@Blondie205]

Hi Miki I love watching your videos as a fellow nurse it's nice to see nursing videos! Quick question--what type of outpatient job do you have in Seattle? I feel your job would be less stressful then my current situation of outpatient. Thanks!

[@createdbydwayne]

Get rid of the pervert stash first :p

@@Joseph-zd7kg noted 😂 that's actually a filter, it's not real 😭

[@katherineharris3459]

I am social work major, but it is very interesting to learn about nurses' lives

[@dndjsjshb]

I am a high school student who is interested in becoming a nurse. I could relate to the fact that you set several alarms when you wake up early in the morning. I always set several alarms. It's really cool to see you work hard and it's cool to be a nurse. That's what I want to learn from you.😮

[@quaintonquaint5486]

Omg June 22nd is my birthday can't wait to see what it is!! I love seeing your videos, I am starting nursing school next semester! I could've started this semester but I am going to knock out some co requisites first!

[@rennik2255]

Some helpful stuff for pimples: don’t pop bc the bacteria will spread, use hydrocolloid pimple patches to draw the fluid out. Use distilled drinking water for your last rinse! There’s still lingering stuff on our faucets, too.0.0

[@User-nt5yc]

Just got into nursing school ! So excited and your tik toks and videos have made me so happy for my future

[@usser312]

I just got in also! How is it going for you? :)

[@Riri_chaey]

It looks so fun working at the job you do

[@ilifarina]

Love the vibe you give in these vids, Miki. Love from Malaysia!

[@erikamejia8100]

Hi Miki! I've also had an off again, on again battle with dandruff. I never struggled with it until I bleached and dyed my hair for the first time! and actually linked it to the products and chemicals used to bleach my hair. I would definitely recommend looking into it to see if you're allergic or react differently to that. Nizoral was my bestfriend too!

[@Henrysweenie]

I love your vids most entertaining rn day in the life 🙌🏼

[@muffinatorr]

Growing up I never used to get acne on my chin but once I hit my early 20s I started getting hormonal cystic acne there. After being prescribed Spironolactone to help regulate my hormones, it cleared it all up.

[@JayFriedrichs]

in chinese medicine face mapping of acne and skin problems a lot of times they say the heavy chin acne comes from hormonal imbalances/reproductive. Can be diet on the chin too.

[@jesusiskingofmyheart]

This hair color is so pretty on you! 💕

[@user-LES10420]

I'm glad to hear that you developed an interest in nursing through my videos, despite living in Korea and not knowing much about nurses in the United States. I appreciate your kind words and I'm thankful that my videos have been helpful to you. Keep up the good work!

[@Jawbone671]

I'm working on my RN degree now and I can't wait to be a nurse.

[@DarkHairedCurlyOne]

Love the sofa now that it's all set up!

[@erinjoy]

Yes!! The 0.38 Pilot pen is top tier!!!!!

[@JayFriedrichs]

i agree with going outpatient, has been way less stressful for me.

[@PurpleRainyClouds]

Tip for maskne: use a benzoyl peroxide wash at night after removing makeup

[@rashell6673]

Brushing my teeth in between meals on shift has been a life saver for maskne!!

[@bishesta.]

Been waiting for your shorts about the special announcement 😬😬

[@JeffreyTe]

Use Sandra Lee’s salicylic acid body spray for your chin!!!! Works so well for mask-ne

[@MelloneeKecia]

Great vlog as always 👍🏾👏🏾🤗

[@kawaiiotaku1599]

For the chin acne (and acne in general), I use pimple patches.

[@yanjingyang4589]

Can you talk more about working outpatient!? I want to make the jump but I don’t even know where to start and where to look. Can you make a video talking about what you do and what kind of skills you need for that?

[@nidaagoboo]

The inkey list salicylic acid facial cleaner saved my acne from N95s 😭 I get wayy less pimples and if I do, they’re gone in 2-3 days! Best part is that it’s only $10!

[@violetbaker5200]

I love your videos,you are the reason I want to be an nurse

[@tkmmnico4582]

O.M.GAWWWWWD. I LITERALLY SQUEALED WHEN I SAW THIS NOTIFICATION! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR POSTING THISSS EEEEEEE 🥰 btw thank you for suffering just for our entertainment 😂

[@soapy_bubbles3944]

Loved the video! Also looking for advice: I'm a guy and suffer from dandruff too :( Like you it really is on and off (sometimes have and sometimes don't). Gonna try that glycolic acid you're talking about but idk whenever I use special shampoos (I've tried Nizoral too) it works for a few months then stops working after a while 😢 any more tips on managing it? Thanks!

[@Katthenurseee]

These are my fav! Yay!!!! Make more of these

[@Annette111]

Hayy!! I love your videos. You are very positive.

[@ivanatandrianto4781]

Try to drink mix tomato, carrot, and apple juice before sleep or in the first morning before breakfast, didn't believe it my self at first BUT!! it really worksss for acne

[@natalieeubank4533]

Tea tree oil for acne and drying out pimples! Side note: I love spirited away and I can't forget Ponyo, My husband and I named our cat ponyo

[@bobbicyrlpn6457]

I use the cerave baby shampoo on my face and collagen cream on my face before I go. I never wear makeup because I have sensitive skin.

[@hana67432]

You are my New Favourite Nurse now, You look gorgeous as always, Thank you very much for sharing your Amazing Nursing Experience with me today Miki. 😃

[@anisaoktavia7618]

Really love your content Miki!! Being nurse is my dream job💓

[@glom2497]

Omg I love this video. So how is outpatient different than the hospital job ? What do you like more about it ?

[@laurenlol8606]

Would you ever go into a specific unit like labor/ delivery or medical surgery? Just curious

[@ibrmk2610]

Love ur video now u show us a nice video as always love ur videos btw stay healthy and safe

[@noneyabiznez4787]

I highly recommend FADED TOPICALS from Sephora! It helped me with my acne on my chin

[@SheenaMae]

Nurse Miki, can you do a vlog that is all about how much you earn in a month and every year? What country or hospital would be the best for you to work in as a registered nurse? Pleaseee. #1 supporter here!

[@kaeleylangan3324]

I just started my first hospital job as a unit secretary! Trying to get as much experience as I can while in nursing school :) any advice? Love your videos!!❤️

[@renahowie1234]

Hey girl! As a student nurse and patient care technician/unit secretary, my unsolicited advice is that you start saying yes to everything! Whether a coworker asks you for help/a favor or staff at a clinical site asks if you want to see/do something - SAY YES!!

[@MFconfuse]

Never knew i'm gonna need this since im planning to be nurse for a while in my country then if i get to other country ill take dentistry

[@kaylaxloves6802]

My sister works 12 hour shifts (sometimes) and says, “my hospital is very busy. I’m always on my feet, so it makes the day go by faster”

[@MeikyuuButterfly17]

Whats your favorite body sunscreen? Or do you use the same one?

[@1saamor897]

Wow, an introvert nurse. I need to watch your vids now to relate.

[@Nintendogamessss]

I love watching your videos because someday I want to be a nurse or a doctor

[@NatalieHo]

Fellow nursing student here: wanted to ask for tips and advises on how you prepared for ATI proctor exams (i will be taking it fairly soon and itll be my first time taking it). If you recall back when you were still in nursing school (which is probably long years ago) on any tips/advises on how you tackled it, let me know 😭 Thank you!

[@hoangmyle3207]

Hello Miki, can i ask you a question: what do you usually do to prepare for going to a night shift at hospital?

😍aww, cutie with her new bed 🐶

Sameeeee😂😅😊

[@celinasingh5050]

Hey Miki! New nurse here, I’m going to be working in a hospital soon, but I’m worried about my fur baby going so long without check- ins for the whole 12 hrs plus commute, how does your dog handle it? Also where does ur dog use the washroom when ur gone, for #2?

[@copiedusername6834]

i think it relt relies on if your dog is independent enough

[@Dasming]

I used to have a doggy camera whenever I would leave for work, I do 12 hour night shift. My dog would sleep she’s a senior 12 year old dog. Sometimes, my boyfriend would come and check in (he’s a night owl). There’s also a dog walker apps you can use like Rover. Hope this helps.

[@keertisaksainaa7908]

omg you are- PRETTY ❤

[@DD-kd3vc]

Nice video. If you're working within a sterile field environment, be careful with the lash extensions and hair popping out of the scrub hat as it pertains to infection control. Maybe pop some eye shields on and a bouffant cover over your scrub hat and over your ears and extra stray hair. My hospital in PNW makes eye shields. Plus AORN standards speak a little about infection control and what falls off into the sterile environment such as skin, hair, lashes, etc. that can cause infection. (I'm not sure if you're in the OR, but it looks like you were popping things onto a sterile field.) Maybe outpatient surgery. Are there any doggy cheesecakes out there? Your cute little doggy looked like he wanted a bite! Twelve-hour shifts are rough! I feel your pain! Thanks for your video! :)

[@alchemyofeden]

The pilot .38 is the ONLY pen that I buy. It's a perfect, clean line.

I just started my nursing degree, making my own "study with me videos". Hopefully graduate soon and become an RN very soon! 🙏🙏

[@486davinci]

*How many bags do you carry?* I have a separate bag just for food and then my work bag.. I've been having some neck-lumbar-sacro/back pain that I'm diagnosed with and became a patient after my shift 2x/3x a week to a pt to relieve it.. also, an outpatient nurse.. ngl, eating and peeing is so difficult at work and I've been a nurse for 4 yrs - it doesn't get any better but it doesn't get any worse, only the pain..

Hi Miki! I love your glasses frame! Where did you get it?

[@Vaishnav_C]

I set alarms like that as well.. i set them with a 5 min intervals. For atleast an hour.

[@pippamarkovic960]

I’m a nurse in the NICU and have wear N95 masks still. I found not wearing foundation and just wearing eye makeup helped my skin and cleaning my chin/face through out my shift with micellar water also helped. Not sure if that’s an option for you. I figured no one can see my face anyway because it’s covered with a mask why waste the makeup

[@JayFriedrichs]

great video yo!

[@arvidacereno4348]

Hi! What kind of outpatient setting do you do? :) I work as an OR nurse in a hospital, was thinking of looking at surgery centers because our call shifts are burning me out. 🙈

[@mansibaghel8986]

Chin acne are generally because of hormonal imbalances, are you having any problem related to that ? Or it can be because of one mask used more oftenly because of you

[@brookecatrett6878]

You should try tula skincare it’s amazing

[@armiebalboa]

They say Apply petroleum jelly to act as skin barrier to prevent acne from wearing mask.

hi miki, where is the scrub cap from "you've got this"

[@diegservices3889]

Good day, would love to know where, your a nurse... here in upstate NY we just had a baby a few months ago, our fourth child. The experience has left us severely traumatized. Too much to explain on a comment section but the short of it is, a video I saw of you saying that the stuff in the delivery room is for us to take is false, at least in my recent experience at a hospital in greece ny. Our past children also, we were not allowed to take anything with us. Signs all over saying so. But the last baby I went in with thinking that we could take the stuff, diapers, formula, used receiving blanket, other random things bottle adapter, breast feeding cups, already opened, but upon our exit we were stopped by security asking us to please take the things back to the room or risk theft charges, they say because there is a lack of this stuff it needs to be reused for the next person...needless to say we returned it. We are not at all well off combined income is below 20k a year, if anybody could use these things it would be us... furthermore upon inspection of our insurance charges we where charged for all the stuff we didnt take...The experience from our first childs birth to our last is a 10 year gap, the difference in experience is a 180 first child was all happy times music cheering, the last -silence, no nurses to help, scolding for having another baby, I was held in a room because they feared i could become violent, i did not. Then after baby born never saw a doctor agsin, till her regular doc appointment weeks later.. she had an emergency c section.. again so much more happened, I say at least we got out alive....
