You Know You Are A Future Nun...

When you decide to wear your hair down (because it's blonde and curly with ringlets thrown in) :P and because you realize you have (if it's the Lord's will) nine years left of wearing it down and not in a veil....

^ So true. Hopefully for me not even that long.

Before you know it :)

I was helping walk my friend's horse this morning and the wind plus having a lot of growing-out fringey bits meant I was thinking of even the unflattering little postulant scarf with longing :sos:

When you start hoping that you're as gorgeous as all the young nuns you see in pictures by the time you become a nun. :|

When you realize you only have approximately 4 1/2 year left... :bounce:

I never thought I'd see the day when someone talked about becoming a nun for beauty reasons :)

EDIT: Though you know it's true - nuns are all beautiful. It isn't the habit. When a nun is faithful to what she is, it makes her 'light up' somehow. I've seen it a lot of times. So yeah, become a nun for Christ's sake and get beauty as a bonus side-effect. :winner:

You get super excited when you see an email from a Vocation Director/ Vocation Assistant, even if it is just the monthly newsletter.

When you're always emailing the novice mistress with the questions you forgot when you saw her.

I've been doing this recently. Somehow when I was meeting with her I couldn't remember a thing, the second I got home I had a load of questions.

when you write poetry and songs about your discernment and CAN'T stop thinking about being a nun and watch the sound of music just so you can watch the nuns!

You have a dream about your future community...and the CFRs are there! I've decided the CFRs were at the convent for a party.
