My visit to Cebu

Exhausting i should say! Oct. 15 when we arrived in cebu, it was a bad flight. It must have been the pilots' first flight,..Anyway, we manage to went there safe. Tired though, my excitment prevails...Changes,changes,changes! Big structures sprouting like mushrooms, development must have been so dear in cebu. I would say, cebu is booming! Well, the retreat?...of the many learnings i got, there are few things that i easily remember, like the "finger," and the song "you raised me up" by josh groban...the finger is the anology given by our speaker Fr.

13 hrs from now...

My goodness, my pants are still wet and i only have 13 hrs left from the time our departure going to Cebu, tsk,tsk,...i got lazy yesterday, i did my laundry just this morning and i thought my pants would be dry by this time, just a thought,hehehe...hmmmm, what else? yeah, about the retreat...its a goodthing...i'll be having time for myself. Moreover, the uniqueness of this retreat is that all of us student friars, including the solemn proffesed friars are together. This is in preparation of our 50th year presence in the Phils - 50 years guys!...50 years!....We even have plans of going to mission to Papua New Guinea----who knows, i'll be sent there and be the first missionary O.Carm. in the Phils who would go there! why not! i love it,hehehe....'till here...i still have to check all the things in the big travelling bag i have.,hehe... i received a comment from mariar, i wonder who she is, she even knows bebang,hahaha..you can join..and let's celebrate the octoberfest,hhh

i'm done with the first sem.

At last! The first semester is over. i fee like being taken out of a hot pot. Gone are those heavy schedules and paper works (atleast for now). and i'm happy now 'coz i'll be spending my semestral break in Cebu, my beloved Cebu. We'll be having a retreat there for one week and another week for Carmelite studies (not to mention our outing in Bohol,hehe, fun!fun!fun!). This will be a day of rest for me and for the rest of the brothers. I'm now preparing some of the things i will bring back to Cebu. Of course some of my former classmates are preparing something when i get there - the usual cases of beer,lol!!! This is for the observance of the Octoberfest,hahaha...i'm excited now. I miss many of things in Cebu. Well i guess i have to reserve some of my excitement and burst it out when i get there. OK. i still have to wash my clothes, for i might wear nothing in Cebu..hehehe... -melskeins-

Remember my previous post about the exam? It was postponed. And now i have another day to prepare myself for the exam,lol..Today i slept the whole afternoon, that's how i prepare my self, hehe..nah, it's already 6;30 pm here and i will spend my whole night reviewing, hopefully i can concentrate on my studies. For the time being, i still have to watch the news on TV. Godbless... -melskiens-

I'm so busy lately(of what?). We're going to have an exam on canon law. The problem here is that until now (even up to this point while writing this) i still haven't read any thing from my notes or the book. I'm so lazy in studying. I rather play online games, lol!!! Nah, i really have to study, and so i will end this writting for me to study..and hopefully won't be tempt in playing online games....
