Retreat

altho it was a little bit boring there,it was tons of fun and i miss retreat so much.
it was great. anyways,lemme tell you about the retreat.

the first day - monday
we arrived at the place around 3 pm. while some of my friends took a shower. i went to my friends room and took some pictures,cos we were wearing the same tee shirt. an Obama tee. but evelyn wore a diff tee. she wore a white tee with a " YES, WE CAN!" writings on it. sally wrote it tho. we love the tee(s) thankyou sally ann :)
after that we all went down stairs. and we walked around for a lil' bit. and we went inside. and the first session began. it was so frocking boring. and the nun - is nuts. idt she's a nun. omg she yelled at us 24/7. we were stressed out. bored. and we were all waiting for snack time. so around 4-ish we all went to the other room and ate snacks. i love snacks,or at least i ate a lot of snacks there. i cant stand delicious foods,its my guilty pleasure lol :) after that the second session began. okay.. and we were bored,again. and then the nun (Sr. Magriet,OSU) taught us a dance. it was more like a praying thing or whatever than a dance. so while we circle around and move and dance,we were all praying. the first time we tried we were laughing,but then Sr. Magriet yelled at us. so yea we were scared. and we shut the hell up lol. then dinner time came around. we ate dinner and of course (greedy me) had two almost three rounds of dinner lol,but idc. then the third and last session for the day began. and there is this thing called GTM and the nun was so proud of it. GTM stands for Gerakan Tutup Mulut. so after the last session : reflection/praying. we are not supossed to talk to each other. after the last session we were all so tired and sleepy. we really didnt talk. well,we talked for a lil' bit. but not too loud lol. and then.. we slept.

the second day - tuesday
i woke up nearly six already. and d'oh im late. we actually are late. we includes me,sally,and tasya. since we're room mates haha. anyways Sr. Magriet protets about our late-ness i guess. but holy moly we tried. sucker. ok forget about it. its breakfast time. i enjoyed breakfast.. had two rounds of breakfast haha. and our first session for the day began. it was so boring. anyways im too lazy to explain every session and from now on when i write session. it means boo-ring! ok thanks. anyways. then came snack time. then came second session. then came lunch.. yum. they have pretty good cooks there. third session. snack time. fourth session. dinner time. and then we went to the chapel. we had to reflect,and we had to go back to the past and think of what we had done in the past. i cried. when the nun talked about moms. i felt really guilty. and me and friends hugged each other. saying sorry and everything, i love you bests :) and then after that GTM began. but me and sally cant sleep. so we talked for quite a bit. but then we went for beddy time.

the third and last day - wednesday
we woke up. late again. we're city kids,we are used to be late i guess. or we are trained to be late. the we ate breakfast. first session. snack time <3!. second session. lunch time. and then we said our goodbyes. and then we went home.

the ride from the retreat place to our school in jakarta was quite far. and it was like hell. the boys went crazy. and the girls were all screamy. and dude,someone smells like shit. i know who but i wont tell hehe..
