Renee the Nunnabe Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 When you were so happy to see all the Sisters in the Vatican Square during the Papal Election and seeing how many Orders you could identify Oh boy, I was nunsighting too. Me: *briefly sees something that looks like a veil* "Is that a Sister?" Dad: *amused* "Yes." Me: *grins like a fool*
Maravillas Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 When before talking to a cistercian nun, you introduced yourself as "Sister Agnès", and the real sister answers "not yet!" with a lovely smile! ^^

FutureSister2009 Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 When you want to enter so much that you're willing to take summer classes just so you can graduate faster and enter sooner

FutureSister2009 Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Heh. You must really want to enter :hehe2: Oh you have no idea.
FutureSister2009 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 When you're at a retreat at a retreat center and you keep saying how much your room is like a convent! And I really enjoyed the simplicity of the room!
Mary's Child Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 When this makes you cry and then scream for joy http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=495982133783854&set=a.495981197117281.1073741828.222352604480143&type=1&theater
FutureSister2009 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 When you're willing to use all the money in your bank account to visit convents and then you won't mind that you have no money because you'll be living a vow of poverty soon anyway.
Mary's Child Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 You know you're a future nun when your Mom asks what you want for Easter and you say " I dont really want any candy or things like that but would you be willing to get some of the things I still need for Postulancy?" True story
OnlySunshine Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 You know you're a future nun when your Mom asks what you want for Easter and you say " I dont really want any candy or things like that but would you be willing to get some of the things I still need for Postulancy?" True story LOL, I'm no longer discerning religious life but I know what you mean! Last year, before Christmas, I talked with my mom and grandmother. At the time, I was still waiting to see whether or not I was going to enter and I told them both I didn't want a lot of stuff that I'd have to get rid of if I entered. I still do not want a bunch of stuff. I have such a tiny room. I was cleaning it out yesterday and I still have a lot to get rid of. There's dust everywhere and a bunch of statues my aunt gave me for Christmases which I don't want. I kept thinking to myself, "How did I accumulate all this stuff?" I'm not attached to any of it. I guess I'm a true Franciscan! :hehe2:

ChristinaTherese Posted March 31, 2013 Author Posted March 31, 2013 When someone asks if you want to be a nun after non-Mass on Good Friday and then asks you to pray for his daughter. When you're confirmed and it feels like the graces of the sacrament are all just pulling you more and more to Jesus. (I'm Catholic now! And this might be normal for everyone, I just wanted to say it anyway.)
ToJesusMyHeart Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 When, during Mass, there is one EM directly in front of you (literally, I could touch her) and another is within grasping distance, one EM holding the Precious Blood and the other holding the Holy Body....and you can't reason with yourself to close your eyes to pray because Jesus is right there, so close to you and you can just cast your gaze upon Him and adore Him all through Holy Communion. When, after Easter morning Mass, you want to give thanks after Mass for the Eucharist and for the Resurrection, but your family is pestering you to get up and go to the car. When in said car, all you can think about is how loud everyone is being, and at the convent it would be much more prayerful and they wouldn't be talking about trivial things like taxes and houses and baseball games right after Mass. THE WORLD IS SO NOISY! :pinch:
