RETREAT! ♥
11:04 PM
i think this is gonna be a really long post. just a warning. :)
SO. retreat was actually really fun! i know, shocking, right? and just because im extremely bored, im gonna write an overdetailed summary. so first we rode the bus to this one place in rosemead at 7:30 in the morning & we had to wait outside for like, 30 minutes. and then when we got in, we played this game called postmaster. i dont know if you guys have played it but basically, there were chairs around the edges of the room and the postmaster is in the middle & goes, "my name is ________, i am the postmaster and i have a message for ___________. <--- (any category like, for anyone who has a myspace, anyone who goes to cerritos high, anyone who has a butt, etc. ) anyways, whoever applies to the category has to stand up & look for another seat and there's one person who won't have one and that person becomes the next postmaster and it goes on until one person has done it 3 times & that person will then have to sing a song of the audience's choice. so it went on, and it was so embarassing because this one kid was like, i have a message for anyone who's wearing boots and i thought she said anyone who was wearing BLUE. so, like the loser person i am, i stood up and tried moving to another seat but i ended up being the one who couldnt find one. and freaking phillip started laughing really loud & shouted, "you're not even wearing boots!!" & everyone started laughing. now they call me boots. -__________- yeah, i know im stupid. so then this one girl finally reached 3, and she had to sing but the priest was like. okay, who's birthday is coming up in 2 weeks & michael marin raised his hand and so he went to the middle & called all the girls in the room to come to the middle & surround him and we all had to kneel on one knee and sing happy birthday to him. -_- & then we started playing this other game where there were 2 circles formed by chairs, and the inner circle was facing outwards towards the outer circle. and the 2 groups moved in opposite directions. music starts playing and you keep rotating, and you can switch circles if you want but once the music stops, you find a chair. kind of like musical chairs except for this game, you talk to the person in front of you & they give you a topic and you keep talking until the music plays again & it goes on and on. but they played really cool music! like, the music we actually listen to. & it was really fun getting to know new people.
& then it was break time and the priest called michael up and asked him what school he was from & so everyone from whitney got to leave for snack first. :) after, we just worked on these posters and more getting to know each other activities, and artsy stuff. & then lunch! it was actually pretty fun. there was a whole mess of us just playing volleyball & it felt really cool because we didnt even know each other but we were all having fun anyways. & then we heard mass, and it was going to end good but then we found out that one of the guys freaking etched something into the boys bathroom. -_- who does that in a retreat, you know? but the bus ride back was really fun. i like the game chicken taco! & i love whitney and fatima people! we got back at around 4 ish. the end. i'm surprised if you guys managed to force yourselves to read this much. i'm not done though x)
i have so much work to make up! i dont wanna go back to school. D: & i totally fail spanish now. i really really suck at participation points. ohh, and you know, everyone in my house is now sick except for my mom? haha. so i got it from mostly my dad & someone else i wont name because--
SARAHZHANG-- yeahh, that's for you freako, thanks. >:) so i think i passed it on to my sister liezl, because she slept in the bed i slept in when i was really sick twice. & elaine ate from my spaghetti because she really cant resist jollibee, and pia.. well. i dunno, she took care of me on tuesday so thats probably why. but we were watching ugly betty episodes we missed, and she freaking wore a bandana to cover her nose & mouth the whole time because the didnt wanna get infected. haha. but she said it was also because she drank from my dad's cup? but yeahh. this happened before. i got the chicken pox & spread it to liezl and elaine. x)
i wish i could just sleep now. but i have so much crap to do. 25 more hours till the weekend! i think. you know its weird, because it doesnt even feel like we lost an hour? i barely even noticed it. its weird, i only notice it when we gain an hour. ohh, i tried cutting my hair today! i fail. haha. all these random stuff are coming into my mind. okay, i'm gonna TRY to finish homework now. you're pretty crazy if you read this whole post.
oh, and isau! i heard about your knees & i saw your post and picture. i dont know exactly what happened, but i really hope you feel better! i'll help you with whatever you need. :)
