Blog of a Roman Catholic Seminarian
Name: Anthony Urban
My name is Anthony Urban, I am Roman Catholic seminarian. I am studying at St. John Vianney Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. I am a Philosophy major and a Catholic studies minor. I am originally from Sioux Falls, South Dakota and the diocese I am studying for is the Catholic Diocese of Sioux Falls. I am currently a junior and I am 21 years old. I enjoy reading, rollerblading, hanging out with my brother seminarians, playing ping-pong and shooting pool.

Thank the Lord!!! I am done with math forever!!! Just one more test and I am home free. My last test is in Ancient Philosophy. Pray for safe traveling tomorrow.
I am done with my last paper for the semester and I will be taking my ethics test in about three hours. This will probably be my hardest test, because our professor has been teaching for 40 years now. He is very intelligent and he makes some tricksy tests. He also calls us hobbits, not sure why though. I am truly honored to have him as our teacher, he has given us numerous insights on the priesthood and how this class is so very pertinent for spiritual direction and other aspects of life. St. John of the Cross, pray for us.
I hope the Vatican comes here. I think St. John Vianney is one of the largest college seminaries in the nation. I've got a link to our homepage to the left and here is a link to the story concerning the Vatican coming to the United States.
Just noticed on my last post that a verdict has been reached in Scott Peterson's sentencing hearing. I'll have more when that comes up too.
I wonder why they're mad? Read this.
Here comes the final exams! I've got three tests and one paper to do. I have a test in introductory ethics, math, and ancient philosophy. My paper is a short analysis of three main points of my class titled Spiritual life in the Thomistic tradition. I don't think this week will be all too stressful. I will be heading out on thursday to go home for my long break. I will stay busy over break though. I will be working part-time and studying Latin for this up-coming semester. I will be working on a Teens Encounter Christ weekend over my j-term break. St. Lucy, pray for us.
I am back in action. This blog is for everyone and I want to hear what you think of my new creation. My semester is ending soon and I must get to my studies. Our Lady of Guadalupe, pray for us.
