Meri has mentioned that college is the place where most of us are at in our lives. It plays havoc on this guild however. I'm not suggesting to quit college, but what do you do to keep up on your beliefs when you can't reach to Gaia for sharing?
On the other hand, are you scared to post something?
Anyways, I digress. Often, if I have to write a paper, I try to make my spirituality the topic of the paper. That is... if it is permitted. Other than that, I try to write more in my BOS and take it as an opportunity.
So college scholars, what do you do to keep up with yourself? :3

Well, now that summer break is in full swing, I've taken up a new lease on life somewhat. While I hate my part-time retail job, Ive decided to take a new approach to my days off by actually doing things during them. I still have to bike everywhere, but I've been library-ing, meditating by the beach, and going on a lot more nature walks. Spending more time connecting with the nature around me, as well as the community. Heck, I've even considered volunteering time to teaching kids how to read while I have the time.
My college isn't terribly bible-thumperish, as there are a ton of pagans, or even pagan wannabes just floating around the buildings. Earth Day brought a lot of us out, as there was a huge gathering on campus where a live band played while a clothing drive and drum circle took place. It was really neat, for anyone of any religion.
I've found that making the everyday spiritual in someway, but not looking around for spirituality to happen every second is a good way to adjust. It's hard, dialing down the pagan vibe when its so goshdang fun, but I've come to ponder that in the most mundane of situations, when you're not even thinking about it, divinity/magick happens.
