Our retreat happened last October 21-23, 2010, That is Thursday to Saturday. We left the school at around 9 am, while travelling to tagaytay city, we prayed the Holy Rosary. In going to tagaytay city, we travelled from south expressway. We travelled through Parañaque city, Cavite city, and lastly before tagaytay city, in the laguna city. Then we arrived at the retreat house around 11 am – 11:30 am, then we ate our food exactly 12 pm noon. The foods in the retreat house haves a great taste, we ate too many foods in the noon. And then after we ate our lunch, we have a 1 hour break or 1 hour to rest and organize our things in our room.After the 1 hour break , we went into the session hall where many things happened. At 4 pm we have a snack break, we ate burger w/ tomato. The taste is great, and then after the snack break , we resumed our sessions. Then at 7 or 7:30 pm , dinner time came. After that we resumed again our session, the last session ended around 11pm.
The second day came, we started our morning with an exercise. Father eric led us what we should do. Then he taught us the “ I SEE BEAUTY” thing. It was funny because it feels like you’re doing a ballet dance. Then if your group in the eating room is noisy, you’ll be punished by doing this “ I SEE BEAUTY” thing. It was a memorable experience to do that, because my groupmates we’re noisy, so we’d been punished. And then the Night came , the last session, we received the letters of our parents. Many of us cried when we read the letters. The content of the letter is private, we can’t tell it here , we need PRIVACY, haha ü.
Then the third day came, we woke up early because we will leave the retreat house at 9 am, before leaving the retreat house, we had our breakfast again the and then we had 20-30 minutes to have our picture taking. After that we went home.
The retreat days was fun, exciting, memorable, special, because I shared the story of my life in my beloved Classmates the Best Classmates that I ever had :> IV- FIDELITY ^_^
