petitpèlerin Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 When you're driving on the freeway in the city and you pass under a bridge and catch sight of one of your sisters walking up on it! And then you realize it's a thug in a black overcoat with a white hood up over their head . . . And this happens more than once . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cartermia Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 When I seminarian come up to you and tells you should enter the Nashville Dominicans and he doesn't know you are discerning. You try to laugh/deny about it and end up saying, "No, I want to enter the Abbey of Regina Laudis. Benedictines Rule!!!." "Good you already know where you want to go..." Happened today during religion class... #mylife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
young_and_faithful_ Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Future nun in a shoe store... "Wow, these look very comfortable! I have to start thinking ahead, if I enter the convent these would be of good use!" haha then again this might only happen to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to start thinking ahead, if I enter the convent these would be of good use!" haha then again this might only happen to me! Not at all! I still automatically look for the blackest, most indestructible-looking shoes in any given shop. That's been a harder 'habit' to break than the nun clothes. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want some." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AveMariaPurissima Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 When they sing Elvis' "Can't Help Falling In Love" at a friend's wedding reception, and you're singing the refrain to Jesus. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandelynmarie Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 You know you are a future nun when you watch a movie & the woman is entering the convent with only a single suitcase...aaaannnd you think to yourself, "I could only hope that my item list for entering was short enough that everything fit in one bag!"
