Weeeee!!! I'm in a better mood than my last post here...hahah...

Feb. 6, 2004 Friday
RETREAT DAY!!!! Our block from 1st year was reunited again through our retreat... H13 batch 2001 rules! We went to Tagaytay to have our retreat... Mo. Spinelli Retreat house..... We ran out of good seats in the bus so KARLIE and I were in the back of the bus.... da hell... it was so rocky there... I got a bit dizzy... ARNI!!! Arni's 3 months pregnant! Can't wait to be a ninang again! Hahah... She was with us at the back of the bus first, but told her that it's too risky to be there... it's too rocky, she might ya kno, get a miscarriage.... so she swaped seats with TOPHER... Hahah. Astig 'tong si Topher eh, okay kasama... It's been a while since he has been with us, fortunately he was able to come with us in this retreat... Oh well about the trip... it was quite okay... If topher wasn't with us at the back it would be tooh borrrrring for us...I fell asleep while listening to a chillout cd...really cool cd from topher.

When we arrived at Mo.Spinelli, we were briefed about stuff, and then we ate! Food was okay... Then we went to the girls' dorm... lotsa double decks...shower room was not that baaad...but it was hoooooot. Stupid fan near us isn't working... Siesta!!!! We just ate and ate and ate....damn.... eating is good... but it's freakin' hard to shed the unecessary fats! Hah. There was a playground in the retreat house because they adopt abandoned kids... I was in the swing... Felt like a young school girl again.l :) Picture picture picture! Lotsa picture taking! We're picture addicts! And chat chat chat! We needed a lot of time for chatting... we need a lot of catching up to do... we haven't seen others for a very long time because they shifted courses... We missed HAZEL, KAT and RYAN! MANGUNE! Hahah... Missed those frosh memories.. Anywayz, we went back to the hall to start the session...I was sooo sleepy... Did some games...human bingo thingy....wow a lot of peeps asked me to sign to that space where "someone who sings very well" awww. touched akoh! Hahah. Merienda time.... Siopao! Arni's favorite! She loves siopao now that she's pregnant. :D .:D Back to the loong session... it was okay actually... I was listening... I thought I needed some enlightenment... But still there were lots of questions goin' through mah mind... Dinner....Break... Then the last session for the day... It was really a heartfelt moment... geez...I was on the verge of tears... With all those candles plus background music, and the seminarian talking, it would really make you cry...hah. Then the giving out of candles... cried my heart out... I just felt that it was sad to think that we'll part ways soon because we'll be graduating soon. Damn I'm gonna miss college... I don't want to leave it yet! I'm having so much fun in college.... I'll miss my friends and blockmates so much... I was staring at every face in the room that night... I'm gonna miss them all... But then again, graduation is still on October so I'm gonna make most of my time... I was not only crying because of that... but also because I have found the greatest friends on could ever have... and all those memories we had came back to my senses....And it is only now that I have experienced that moment where we don't need words to speak to be able to say what we want to say to the other person... I had the tightest hug from a friend... and I also gave her the tightest hug... I knew there so much words to say, but because of the moment, when we hugged...it's like we already said everything we wanted to say to each other. We were crying so hard... and it was like somewhat a relief for both of us...then the session finally ended by 10pm... we can do whatever... bonding time with friends and eating time again... it was great to take a long shower after all those stuff we did.... it's refreshing inside and out...:D Went to doze off already... when some of our friends decided to talk about freaky stuff, like ghosts and the like... dammit I was starting to get paranoid, and I asked them to keep it down...don't want to have nightmares..heheh. It became really cold that night....Brr...

Woke up early to take a bath...had breakfast....the boys haven't taken baths yet! So lazy! hahah.... It was really beautiful outside with those fogs.... picture taking again! Hahah.... NYXZ was in a towel, pretending to be butt naked, but not really! He was like that in the picture taking! Hahah! CRISELLE saw TOPHER running around in the boys dorm only in briefs! He was like a kid running around daw! AHAHAH! Tooh bad I didn't see it! Hahah! Had another activity again... made affirmation letters... and had mass... wasn't able to confess, the priest can't stay long in the retreat house... what's with that....heheh. Then we took off already.... Thank God we had good seats! Pasalubong! Bought a lot... or so I thought it was a lot... Then KARLIE and I doze off at the bus.... Longgg trip... When we got back to school, I went straight home... I don't want to stay for a while at school, I had a lot of stuff in my hands, I just want to get home right away.. Back to normal...became a couch potato again...:D

And toohday! Woke up a bit early... Internet agad! Whew... I should start making my resume! I have an interview tomorrow at school with a panel....damn, just thinking about it... it makes me feel so nervous.... I should be prepared! Oh well! Good Luck! Jia You!
