You have been warned. When you have a meeting at a different floor of the university physics building than where your lab is located, and the toilet there has a white seat instead of the black one at your floor... ...and you think "oh, a novice!"

puellapaschalis Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 You know your sister probably has a religious vocation when she pops up on irc one day and in a blur of words tells you about some weird encounter she just had with inanimate (she checked) toilets in her university department. You know [i]you're[/i] being called to some state of holiness when you manage to refrain from telling her to [i]stop talking to the loos[/i].

Jennifer G. Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 - You start registering at Catholic forums with your preferred religious name. Just incase... - Whenever you pray the Rosary with a group, and close your eyes, you imagine that you're a nun.

I have had very vivid dreams about just about every possible future, including marriage to the most unlikely of people, but I have [i]never[/i] dreamed about being a Sister, or about Sisters, period. I do hope that will change come September

Hilde Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 -You keep misreading vacation as vocation all the time. -A sister winks at you when another nun says she wishes for more sisters.
Noemi Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 When one of the sisters "combs" your hair from your forhead because she is curious about how will the veil fit on me...

Black or Brown on the bottom, white on top. Went with neither. If one's wardrobe is an indication of vocation I'm headed for the Pink sisters Edited June 14, 2009 by she_who_is_not
dominicansoul Posted June 14, 2009 Author Posted June 14, 2009 ...someone asks you if you are in a relationship OR if you are dating someone??? ...and you immediately think, "Yes, with Jesus.." but you are not quite sure how to put it into words...

One of my good friends (now a religious sister) had put "Jesu Cristo" in the "married to:" option of her Facebook profile. And yes, I must admit my first thought was, "Hey! I should do that!" (Even though neither of us are yet officially married to Him...) Hahaha!
