He Grants Sleep to Those He Loves

Tomorrow is my first day of class at my very new school, Wheeling Jesuit University. I transferred in from Ohio University last spring. I'm majoring in theology and have already had one professor advise me against it. I think it's because I have such a hard time explaining my desire to study the Christian religion. I've never been able to pin it down, but it has become very clear to me that it's the only thing I want to study...well, aside from anthropology. Alas! I am making plans to apply to seminary next year with the hopes of beginning on the path to clergydom by the time I am 24. I am, of course, doing all these things with the knowledge that my path is not yet defined and that God may speak to me in a way that makes me change my plan of study.
All of this being said, I still have to take chemistry...and logic. I'm rather nervous that my grades will not be up to par. This is the main reason for deleting my facebook. Well, seeing as how it is 1 am....I'm off to bed. Goodnight!

In vain you rise early,
and stay up late,
toiling for food to eat—
for he grants sleep to those He loves.
Psalm 127:2

HAHAHAHA. I love this website, and yes I will admit I love cats. I am not, however, a crazy cat lady or any variation thereof. I have a couple cats, but only one lives with me full time. Elmo has been my baby since 1999 and continues to sleep at the foot of my bed every night. Gizmo is 1 and lives with my boyfriend. He is quite the firecracker and loves to play with anybody. This is a dramatic departure from the temperment of Elmo, with whom it is a great day if even I am allowed to pet her. I am very much against the dressing of pets in costumes unless it is for warmth in the winter or halloween.

My First Post

I decided today that I was going to delete my facebook. I felt like spending so much wasted time on that ridiculous website was not only bad for my eyes, but bad for my grades. However, I still want to keep in touch with people and let everyone know what I'm up to...just not on a 24/7 basis. So I have created this blog to chronicle my life after facebook. I assume there will be updates about school, work and life in general, as well as photos and stories from my days as a college student.
