time is ....

so thats by now anyone who is still stumbling across this site has realized that I havent posted since my last year of Seminary started...well thats the joke right, I'm either to uninterested to post or I'm so busy that I can't, so which is it? Really, its the latter. So here is my update of almost a semester.
I have two internships in addition to my fieldplacement, which brings my workload outside of school up to almost 40 hrs. a week. School is good, but a little brutal. Even though I only have three classes, having them all stacked takes a lot of concentration. As usual, some of them are better than others. I am though, to my mild surprise, enjoying my Asthetical Theology class...I just wish I had more time to read the books.

I mentioned my two internships: well one is at ECC and one is at Seamans Church Instiute. They are both interesting in their own ways, but SCI makes me wish I had a car. Its in Newark and the scrum for the PATH train is not condusive to my mood in the morning.

the biggest unspoken stress right now is finding a job. I will graduate from Seminary in approximately six months and I would like to not have to worry about where We are going to live, how Im going to pay back all the money I borrowed to finish this degree...and so forth... I have a few leads, but the uncertainty, combined with the constraints of the job needing to be within easy commute of NYC, makes me ill if I think about it for more than a few seconds. So I try not to.
