Greetings of joy everyone so I was gone for three days and two nights for our class retreat in St. Scholastica Spiritual center. So we went there to meditate and repent on our sins, there we also had a bonding with our classmates to learn more about them. Well it all started last Tuesday (12-5-06), we were all ready to depart but the problem was, we didn't had any bus to ride on, yes there wasn't. For the SBC Bus had a problem, and couldn't come, so we waited till 12:00 pm (note that we should have departed about 9:30 am). Well we were all playing and doing anything to waste the time till another bus would come, some were playing "addition", pick and split, also we were joking of some of the trucks that were passing by that it is already our bus, like the cement carrier. When our bus arrive we were all happy and cheering, even though it wasn't that good it was already fine with us. We arrived in the retreat house about 2 or 3 pm, so we first thing we did was a late lunch. After that we had an introduction about the retreat hous and it's rules. The retreat house is controled by OSB(Order of St. Benedict) nuns, so the place was magnificent and was very peaceful. Our first night to sleep was fine and noisy, we went to our dorm's about 10:00 pm, but I believe, I got to sleep about 11, because of some noises (hmm...). The second day as told by our advisor, Mr. Seguban, was very busy and the main events were held such as the Mass and much awaited open-forum, where we all told what we feel with each other, and our confession of sins to Fr. Angelo Legal. We all had fun, our second night of sleeping together was much late than the first one, we got to sleep around 12 am, but it was worth it for all the fun we had. The third day (today 12-7-06) was our last day in the retreat house and we had to evaluate on what we learn and what we can do. We went hope 12 pm and arrived in San Beda 1:30 pm, and we were the only people there, for there was no classes today. Well this was a very memorable day for me and I believe I've learned many things in our retreat and I'll never forget this three days and two nights with my classmates.
Well thats all my friends, I hope your all having a nice week as I did :)
Atlast class vacation, but before that is our much awaited 2-21 Christmas Party. It was held at Carlos' place and started around 10:00 AM and ended 4:00 PM. It was a blast thanks to the games wich was created by Benoch and group, and the delicoius food, which was brought by Ton. The people you see above are my beloved classmates, Benedict (the one standing), Jairus and Kathleen. So even tough we were not complete, we had a time of our life.
