I also find that interesting about talking about the "nuances of day to day life". I wouldn't think to talk about that because well, why would anybody want to hear about the details of my everyday life? I'm about as boring as they come. Seems like a good recipe for driving people away.

but you do detail the nuances of your daily life, in your journal and in some of your comments about what happens at the school and at the hospital. Some people find it mundane and mind numbing and don't really want to hear it, but your real friends want to hear about what's going on in your life, no matter how boring it seems to you. At some point in time something of interest happens to you during the day. You recount some of it to your close circle, yet they stay and listen and aren't driven away.
