"Cultural Catholic"


You are related to longshoremen or teamsters. When
people make jokes about nuns and rulers, you
don't laugh; you get that "thousand yard
stare" instead.

See you at the next Knights of Columbus social.

What type of Catholic are you?

You scored as New Catholic. The years following the Second Vatican Council was a time of collapse of the Catholic faith and its traditions. But you are a young person who has rediscovered this lost faith, probably due to the evangelization of Pope John Paul II. You are enthusiastic, refreshing, and somewhat traditional, and you may be considering a vocation to the priesthood or religious life. You reject relativism and the decline in society that you see among your peers. You are seen as being good for the Church. A possible problem is that you may have a too narrow a view of orthodoxy, and anyway, you are still a youth and not yet mature in your faith.

EEEEEEE!!!

Yay, my midterms are done! I'm so excited! I had three this week, which wasn't too bad but certainly enough to keep me busy.
Now onto Friday, then the USC game, then home to Minnesota -- the week just keeps getting better. :)
Also, some slightly old news that I haven't gotten around to posting. The Cheiftains are coming to ND to play a concert on March 2, and the orchestra gets to play with them! Even better...we're going with them a week and a half later to play with them in NYC in Carnegie Hall on St. Patrick's Day!!! And oh yeah, they're paying.
I'm off to go enjoy the beautiful afternoon...after this week any free time is enjoyable.

PS Thanks to all of you who encouraged me during midterms, I really appreciated it!

I heart my job

So I'm currently at work, but as usual the amount of work needing to be done is significantly less than the amount of time I'm scheduled to work. I'm supposed to be listening for the phone (which hasn't rung in the past 45 minutes) and otherwise not much is happening. I did spend the first hour here counting by hand the number of ushers in various categories. Trust me, ND football games have a lot of ushers. A lot. Like over 1ooo I believe.
Oh, right, technically I'm an "administrative assistant" at the Security building, in case you didn't know.
Weekend observations:
*rivers are nice :)
*Rocco's pizza and Bruno's pizza may be equally as good. Bruno's has the mismatched religious icons as decorations, but half of Rocco's dining room used to be the living room of the first owners (who happened to be Italian immigrants whose grandchildren now run the resturaunt). *ND football rocks and I am now officially required to stay for the USC game.
*Having the power go out when you're practicing in a windowless room in Crowley is really really scary...especially when you think you're alone in the building and then the creepy clarinetist starts playing.
*Ice cream makes me silly. As does eating dinner with my friends, seeing people get exciting phone calls, or pretty much anything really. Basically, life makes me silly. :)

10 more minutes on the job...I really hope that I didn't miss the phone ringing (I'm in the student office, it's in Cappy's office across the hall).
