I'm done for this semester.. Getting through the week was long, with some aches and pains along the way, but God is faithful. Now I can relax a bit more, rest a bit more and just be a goof.
And start thinking about classes next semester. Yes, my nerdish side is showing. Here goes: so I'm going to do a Faculty Directed Study next semester and I am SOOOOO excited about it!! I'm going to do a class on Ecclesiology (Theology of the Church) because in studying that and being in a seminary has made me think a LOT more about what the church is and how it functions and I just want to learn about it. So normally when I feel that way I go out and get lots of books about something and read up and ask questions. And, well, I'm sort of going to do the same things but it will be for CREDIT. At a GRADUATE level. It's like homeschooling on steroids and it makes me EXCEEDINGLY happy!
So yes, I realize this makes me a bit of a nerd, but I'm really ok with that :)
Huzzah! That does sound fun, actually. We need to talk more about this once your studying gets underway.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing an FDS this summer and I know what you mean about homeschooling on steroids. It's fantastic! I get to choose what I read and study and how I write the papers and everything! Who wouldn't want to learn when given the chance to choose everything they learn so it is completely relevant and useful to their own lives?
