Hey guys!

Haven't been updating the journal in a LOOOONG while. Heh, and the last entry was in 2007... could you believe? Ah, but I'm wasting journal space here...

Hoo-hoo, lots of things have been going on nowadays. Went on a spiritual retreat to Pansol, and learned a lot of things about myself there. Usually, when I go on a retreat, I learn something new... but not about myself. But this time, I was able to solve some personal conflicts I needed to deal with myself. It's much of a relief, as you could say. Not bad for my last year at the retreat house. d(~.^)b

This is also the year where I first got to explore the retreat house fully, if you know what I mean. My friend and I explored the nun's route through the building (since we often used the normal route, which just brought you from floor to floor without really showing anything.), and we discovered new places we never really saw before. For instance, we found the hidden Level E of the building, and surprisingly, a laundry chute. It was kinda cool finding those hidden nooks and crannies!

Also, the first day there, me and my friend were able to talk to our old class adviser when we were in fifth grade. We met some more friendly nuns, talked miles and pretty much bonded for a good part of the evening. The cool part was we were the only ones in the building at that time... since the others were down at Level A, in the big dorm. The nuns were really nice to us! d(^_^)b

Also, since the others were back in bed, we had the whole CR to ourselves. It's kinda cool, you know, having a GYNORMOUS BATHROOM late at night. The others usually were afraid of the prospect because of ghost stories about the place, but it was just so cool! You can goof around and nobody could yell at you. XD

You could pretty much say that I had a fun time there. (Oh, and others thinking that you were ghosts is an added bonus. >D)

As well, since that was my last retreat in the good 'ol retreat house, I took some last-minute pictures of it with three very unique people as models. (Can somebody teach me how to put pictures on journals? It would be real helpful! )

Well, that's all for today. See you guys out there!

I was tagged. (Wow, this is an interesting way to start a journal...)

RULES-
* 1. Post these rules.

8 things:
1. I can't believe that it was actually THIS easy to make a journal. Gosh darn it.

2. I can't believe that after ALL those months being a member, I only knew about making a journal NOW. (Fiddlesticks.)

3. I do not bang my head on the wall and say "ANGST". (If you don't get the joke, watch the "Potter Puppet Pals in Wizard Angst" on Youtube.)

4. I am a very busy student. Nowadays. (Gosh darn it (x3)

5. I find copying Picasso's art word very, very hard. (Please, don't ask. It makes me cry.)

6. Did I mention that I just learned about the journal thing just now?

7. My eyebags grow gradually bigger as each school day passes.

8. I hate the cold.

Oookaayy... and for the people being tagged? I might have to think about that... And yes, numbers 1, 2 and six are absolutely true. I can't believe my own ignorance.

I was tagged by (PS, I don't hate you. I just hope I could finish the fanfiction page I've been working on for a while now. Sorry for the long wait!)

Cheers,
