Some current happenings . . . My Life in a Nutshell

I just finished and submitted my last PhD Application, and now the waiting begins. I won't know anything probably until April, so don't ask me what is happening after graduation until then, and even then, I may not have a clue.

In a sort of related, but very different direction all together, I have started communications with a religious order about discerning further if I am called to religious life. It took a lot of courage for me to make contact about it, and while I am apprehensive about this it isn't in a bad way, more in an I am not sure I want to admit this could be true sort of way. If you want to know more specifics about this, please do ask, but I am not ready to publicly make any commitments at the moment. ;)

I have become addicted to Breaking Bad, I have 16 more episodes to go, then I will be free of it. Seriously, this show stresses me out. I do not know how people could watch that show in real time, waiting a week between episodes.

My final semester of my Master's degree has begun, I haven't started it quite so much, between finishing my PhD applications and only have one class next week, by some random stroke of luck, I am having trouble motivating myself. But I'll get there. I am really excited about most of my classes, excluding Latin, and it doesn't seem like my workload will be overly stressful this semester. Which is good.

And, that about sums it up. There are a few other happenings, but they're for me to know and you to wonder about. :)
