My gahd. It has been a really long time since I've posted here in this weary blog. No idea why I have been busy all the time. Or maybe I was just too slothful. Tss. It's really unlike me; I usually post blogs - EVERYDAY. But now? My last post was on the 17th. It makes me laugh, though. :))

Anyhow, I'll make updates. This will be a long blog, so don't blame me if I bore you. ;)

18th FEB
--> RETREAT, babyy! Woohoo. Hahaha. I went to school early with my huge backpack with clothes, slippers && toiletries inside. First, chit-chat with friends. Of course, I missed them. Haha! Then, Ms. Julie arrived and told us to wait. Although, some already went ahead to LFC. They were probably to excited. LOL. And at last, we were tolerated to depart. Yay! Arnold was with us 'cause he was going to trick Alain that he won't go but he will. HAHA. We arrived there at 8am, I think. And Alain's face was, "FU!". LMAO. :)) We left our bags in a room & we all registered. Afterwards, we went inside another room where many chairs are in. Our row consists of 5 chairs which Pauline, Sam, Tiff, Ella and I occupied. Hannah & Mary occupied 2 chairs in front of our row. Then, we copied the schedule && 1st session started. 'Twas all about Reflection. Next, snacks. We had Bake Mac + Juice. Haha. 2nd session was all about uhh, I forgot. LOL!! Um, gratitude, I think. IDK. We also had an activity and we drew. We've drawn our "herods", "stars", "gifts to Jesus", God & ourselves. After drawing, Fr. Sanchez called out names to stand in front and recite what we have drawn. We were all hoping that our names won't be called but then again, Arielle & I heard our names and we both recited in front. HEELARYOS! :))

After -- LUNCH. Wee. After lunch, we had our rest. We saw our rooms. Oohlala, oh btw, our room had aircon. Yipee. Next, 3rd session. We wrote "I would like to thank God for the following". Hahaha. I wrote so many that it filled up the whole paper. Hahs. SNACKS!! We had this soup and water. :> 4th session, sins. Um, I forgot the title of that session... But we wrote our sins on a piece of paper and we were supposed to confess it during confession. Oh! We also did this "dear Jesus" thing-y. Uhh, idk what session that was. Hahaha! We also had action songs like: Journey, Only Selfless Love, Madali Lang, Deep Deep and I Can. :D

After confessing, we took a shower, prayed the rosary, ate dinner and time for meditation && sharing. We all went to the Pavillion. First, we were all happy and we sang "Deep Deep". Each section performed in front. Hahaha. Then, 'twas time for Meditation. Ms. Susan said 'twas the time to relax and a time to talk to Jesus. Then... She started asking us these questions, "How are your grades? Are they high? Or are they low? How are your parents? Do they scold you all the time? How are your friends? Have you betrayed them or have they betrayed you?". We [pauline and I] thought that we wouldn't cry 'cause we didn't want to cry at all. But we couldn't help but to cry our hearts out. Idk what happened, but I cried all of a sudden. It's awkward, I know. I heard murmurs and cries everywhere. All of 'em were weeping and most likely, they were moaning. Crying real loud including me. We all apologized. I apologized to everyone I needed to say "sorry". And likewise, they apologized to me, too. I can't stop crying at that moment. Next, we had "sharing". We made a circle in Blue section, Arielle was the first to share; she was still crying. When someone was sharing, he/she was crying, too. I shared and I cried again. Afterwards, we had a big share. All of us were included. Shane shared first. She had a very nice share, actually. Arielle shared, Vincent shared and I shared, too. But I didn't cry. Haha. After sharing, we were given letters made by our parents. Tss, we cried again. Haha!

After reading, our teachers gave us messages and we got inspired in every word they told us. Thanks, 'chers! We love yooou. And the most inspiring teacher who gave a message was none other than our principal, Ms. Julie Palaroan. :) After all that -- TIME TO SLEEP! We had no plans in sleeping, though. Haha. In our room, we switched the aircon. We ate, text-messaged, chit-chatted, talked && everything. Ms. Julie opens our door every now and then. Sometimes she just pops in unexpectedly. Haha. One time, she went inside and she sat for a minute, and Tiffany got up and said, "Ms. Julie's gone? Yes!". Then, Ms. Julie replied, "Sleep now!". HAHA. Then, she left. LOL. I didn't sleep but my other room mates fell asleep. Some boys went to our room, too. We talked and such. When everyone was asleep, I was the only one who was talking. And I was sleepy, too. All I could do was to sleep as well and so I did. Haha. I slept at 'round 4am and our alarms rang at 5am. Which means, I only had 1 hour of sleep. :))

19th FEB
Good morning, sunshine! When our alarms rang, I was still sleeping. But eventually, I was awaken. Hahaha. We all showered up and after that, we took mass and ate our breakfast. After eating, we got our bags, cleaned our rooms and we went outside. We all left our bags in the Pavillion and we went inside the cottage. Laughtrip. Haha. We waited for Danielle's ride to arrive and when her driver was there, we all went back to MG. Goodbye, LFC! We arrived and yay, I missed school. Hahaha. We stayed in the court 'til 12:30pm. Tiffany && I went upstairs 'cause she accompanied me in completing. I completed in Math, Language and Reading. After that, my driver was already there and I left Tiffany in school with Frances. My mom and I went to the church 'cause she was handling the prize for the raffle. Guess whaat. I was sitting and I suddenly fell asleep. LOL. I wake up every now and then realizing that I fell asleep and it was like a lightning struck me. Hahs. :)) When we got back home, I went straight to the couch and I slept 'til 7pm. Sleepy head, eh? Hahaha. I took a shower, used the computer and I slept for real. :P

OK. This is a long blog. -___-
