VA, how many days left in your countdown til visiting? I'm excited for you... :bounce:[/quote]

Monday after next, that's... 10 DAYS! Single digits soon! :clap:

And then I'll learn my entrance date. I'm the only postulant coming, and the annual youth camp coincides with the traditional entrance date, that's why it wasn't set yet.

OOOOOHHH! I'm really excited to see when you'll be entering! Keep us updated!

What's crazy is that the days will crawl by until you get there, then your visit will fly by!

YES. And yes, I'll try to get online if I hear it then, but I'm not sure whether I can... :) Otherwise you'll hear it on the 21st. :)

Woot! That's only three weeks!

I wrote to one of the sisters yesterday, because we are going on a pilgrimage to Lourdes in August and I was all hyped because I'd seen "Coco avant Chanel" with my mum, full of beautiful rolling French countryside. She answered:

[quote]Well Anna, I can already tell you that (sadly or happily) the French pilgrimage will have very little resemblance or connections with Coco Chanel.
It promises to be very smelly at any rate, something which, I am sure, she would have disapproved of.[/quote]

You have not met hilarious until you have met Sr. Hyacinthe.

Yup! First and Final Vows! Too bad you can't come because it would be cool to see a fellow Dominican Phatmasser there :( ! But yeah, seeing the sisters in Rome will be awesome for you!!! If you're around Rome when Sr. Anna Grace is (assuming that you know her lol) tell her Colleen from Greenville says hi! That will probably confuse her though! :lol_roll:

One day :love:

Got an e-mail from Sister Prioress yesterday, asking whether I'd be okay and reassuring me that there'll be someone next to the phone so they can pick us up as soon as I call :)

My father will stay with us until Thursday, and then he'll go back to .nl, and I will go on the walking pilgrimage to Walsingham, and fly back Tuesday.
