breaking the silence.

i haven't written in a while, so i better get to that.

what's going on in my life? a lot of things i won't detail on the blog, but plenty that i will. i turned 22, applied to 4 out of 5 graduate schools, went to a diocesan convention for the central gulf coast, fell even more in love with the episcopal church and st. mark's specifically (i didn't even know it was possible to love it more), and am allowing prayer to direct me in many areas of my life.

on saturday, i'm flying for the first time. i am very nervous. my prayers have been said and my priest gave us a travel blessing. that's all i need, right? oh, wait, i forgot -- i am trying to get some anxiety pills and i bought dramamine. for modern medicine, thanks be to God!

that's all i can really tell you right now. i'm burned out and off to bed, but i wanted to update. please have me in your thoughts/prayers/whatever you do as i fly for the first time, but more importantly as i do my interview at general theological seminary, my semi-interview at union theological seminary, and as i travel to harvard. i just want to be myself, and for who i am to make an impression. my fingers are crossed!

thanks for any and all encouragement i receive. i appreciate each and every one of you reading :) blessings to you!

PS -- i got THIS poster for my birthday, and it is THE BALLS. INSATIABLE BATMAN BALLS! i love fred o'neal. :)

I hope your flight went well. Flying can be intimidating but then again how blessed are we to travel through a canvas created by a beautiful Artist!! My name is Erin, Erin Ward. How crazy is that?! what if we became best friends. EW's unite! Have a blessed week.

Enjoy the trip Erin!
Oh, and wear shoes that are easy to get on and off, I always take forever at the security checkpoints because of this.
