Dunno, don't have much to say lately I guess. I'm ailing, you could say. Allergy is really getting to me. I can hardly breathe, my lungs hurt constantly. My eyes are burning, my skin is sensitive up to a point that it hurts just to wear a pullover. My palms are burning and dry. It's really bad. Dad is bringing me a different inhaler tomorrow. Maybe I will be able to control my asthma then. And I'll get eyedrops. Yay? *sighs*

I bought a new book. "The Book of God" by Walter Wangerin. It's really fascinating. The Bible as a novel. It's very nice to read so far.

Today was the second session of this very odd seminar about every day culure and sacramental objects. It's fascinating, but it makes me feel very stupid. I thought I knew my fair share of Catholic customs, but after just one decent session I realized I know next to nothing o.o. Nepomuk's Tongues, weather blessers, swallow pictures... goodness gracious! And I was totally shocked when I learnt that you commit a deadly sin as a Catholic when you take the communion without having confessed (i.e. while having sin on you). All very very odd... Well, I'll see how it'll be. It sounds interesting enough.

Now I only wish I didn't feel so sicky. Now I know why they call it hayfever... *takes temperature and sighs*

lol! hmm.. that is interesting, about the catholic communion and sin. i had one friend who is catholic tell me that it didn't really matter, from a moral perspective though. had an incident where i'd never been to catholic church, and was put in such a situation where i had noo clue what to do, and couldn't not take comumion... of course, i didn't know the right way to cross myself, so that was just blasphamous, i'm sure... =P i'm not fond of instuitionlized religions, very much...

Nyahahaha, so that means purgatory for you, eh? XD Well, you know my views on sin and confession, so... But it just surprised me how easily you can screw up as a firm Catholic it seems o.o;. *thanks Luther profusely for getting rid of all this and cleaning up a bunch of these odd rituals, then again is kinda sad for not knowing them at all since it's kinda interesting to now, so yeah...*
