My Friends!!!


Currently I am in the Library listening to music (on my headphones). It has been definetely an interesting week. So, my major has been undeclared since I decided I wanted to attend FUS. The first day of classes it hit me like a ton of bricks what I am supposed to be learning about. I HAVE A MAJOR PEOPLE!!!! I am soooo excited. Oh, you probably want to know what it is huh??!?!! Catechetics...I will be majoring in Catechetics. We will be finding out on Friday if the University will be offering a major in Music. If they do then I may do a possible double major with Music and Catechetics. Most likely I will be here in college mode for up to three years. I am not in a hurry and I want to get a solid education, so that means lots of studing and tutors to help my brain get smarter!! :) So, after dropping three classes and adding two...I have my schedule:

- Intro to Catechetics
- Studies in Poetry
- Foundations of Catholicism
- Fundamentals of Music

I will be working maybe 3-5 hours per week as a shuttle driver on campus. I will be singing with the Schola Cantorum Franciscana Choir. I am holding off on doing the music ministry until next semester, I don't want to do too much at first.

Well I am off the read the catechism. I hope ya'll are enjoying the snow. It has dusted twice, but nothing to write home about!!! I am missing you all so much and can't wait to see you.

Oh yeah and the homilies at Mass here are out of the world!!! The Holy Spirit is around you all the time and there hasn't been a Mass where I haven't cried. I am just not used to feeling how much Jesus really loves me. Oh, please come visit...you won't regret it!!! :)

I promise I will have pictures soon!!!

The peace of Christ be with you all~

HHHIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Today is the day ladies and gents when I begin orientation. School classes start on January 15th. In approximately 1 1/2 hours I will be getting my schedule adjusted (there's no way I can start out with 5 classes....craziness!!!) Getting my student I.D. Chossing a household I would like to be a part of. We have small groups, I get fed all during orientation (I already like this place!!!). TOmorrow we start with morning prayer (7am...some people crave getting up that early...I just don't understand them :) but I love them!!!) Everyday there is Mass and on Saturday there is gonna be a dance. I don't know if Ohio is ready for the danceing styles of miss g-pity. We will soon find out!!! I need help (shelley, stella, kili...) when I want to do a new post, there isn't a line for a title, how can I get that to show up???

The girls went to Pittsburg last Thursday!!! It was totally awesome...and one of the best things is that they have Bucca de Beppo, and it was perfect!!! EM...ya'll have to come out and go to Station Square...it is truly beautiful. I will have pictures for you soon, left my usb port at home like an idiot!!!

It snowed the other night, but not much. Today it is cold and sunny beautiful blue sky. The sunrise this morning was out of this world. I have heard that it is crazy snowy in good ol Washington. I miss the mountain (it is flat over here...yuck) and I miss all of you. See you in about 5 months!!! :)

God Bless,
