Currently Listening to: Unsaid by The Fray

Ok, so it’s not exactly Wednesday yet. We’re 30 minutes away from Wednesday. Confession Tuesday just doesn’t sound as cool as Confession Wednesday.

I confess…I don’t know if I can do this whole Pastor thing.

In case you don’t know, I’m working on my B.A. in Church Ministries thru North Central University’s distance education program. Yes, I’m getting my college degree by mail. Sounds easy? Think again. This stuff is tough!

I just finished a three credit hour class that took me well over ten months to complete (I got an A by the way). Now, I did slack off a little bit and had fun over the summer…but nonetheless it still took much longer to finish than I expected.

For the past several months, I’ve been contemplating transferring schools and changing my major to a B.A. in Business Administration. I looked into specifically transferring to an accelerated program that would enable me to finish my degree in two to three years. But for one reason or another, God seemed to close all of the doors leading to that program.

But once again, I find myself at the same conclusion…I’m afraid that at the rate I’m going, I’m not going to have the motivation to finish my degree.

I just don’t want to be 40 years old when I walk at graduation. 23 or 24 years old sounds so much more appealing to me. But am I called to receive an education in Business Admin? No.

Crap…I think I might have just solved my problem. In that case, I guess I better go and do some Old Testament Survey homework.

Or maybe I’ll go watch some TV…
(Just kidding, Mom!)
