Oh what a surprise, im so excited for you. I am an aspirant to the religious life too, its just that im already far ahead on the process of becoming one. It was really tough but i think we should contact each other so we could talk about it, i would really like to help just if you let me, and i think i can help you, so my e-mail is elwber at hotmail.com. Dont give up on it, God wouldnt want you to give up on something he specially picked you for.

If God is really calling you to the religious life, then great.
If He's not, well, that's okay too. Not everyone has to be a priest or a nun -- in fact, if we all became priests or nuns, the human race would become extinct!
I think it's great when a woman becomes a nun -- so long as it's God's idea for her to become a nun, and not her idea. If you know what I mean.

Luckily for you there are many religious communities you can choose from. Because nuns serve God by dedicating their life to works of charity or a life of contemplation, or a mixture of both, you will need to decide which will serve your spiritual goals best.
You can check out the Internet under 'vocations' in your country.
By the way if you are a Protestant, you can still join a religious community, see under Anglican Vocations.

Why would you want to?
Do you have any idea what nuns give up for no reason?
