Mount Alverno
Today, my religion class went to Mount Alverno for a retreat. It was mandatory for us to go, if we want to pass this course -.- This was my second time going there for a retreat. I went back in grade 8.
I gotta admit, it wasn't what i expected. I think it was more fun and better back in grade 8. I love the people i have in my religion class, including my teacher, since she's so chill .. but , there was something about it this year that i didn't like. The smell everywhere in that place STINKED. Everywhere we went, there was a horrible smell to it. I couldn't breath .. just plain horrible. The food wasn't all that bad. We had tacos for lunch. hehe. everyone kept saying how bad the tacos are, but i thought they were pretty good. Maybe if the beef was like .. warm, and not freezing good, then it would've been better. But, the one thing that really ticked me off was the fact that two girls took the tacos that were provided, wrapped it and everything .. and didn't eat it. Instead, they threw it out. Honestly, it pisses me off so much when people go and waste food. The taco was huge too .. that one taco could feed a whole family .. and they dont even think much about it, and just complained about it and threw it out .. honestly. You knew you didn't want to eat a taco, so why did you get it in the first place? Even if you didn't like the taco, you could've still sucked it up, and eat it. The cooks in the kitchen spent so much preparing food for us to fill our stomach with, and all you could do was complain and throw food out? You should show some respect and gratitude towards them. Adn then they decide to just laugh it off like it's nothing. All day, all they knew how to do was complain, complain, complain.. it just pissed me off so much. Everyone in my class was so loud .. -.- like, people just didn't know when to be quiet. We could never hear the instructions to a game properly, cause people are always talking.
We talked about relationships today. About sex and all that other stuff. How we shouldn't have sex at this age, and how we should save it for that special someone, and that we get the disease if we have sex now, especially with people who already had multiple partners and so on. I think the only thing i liked about this retreat was the fact when we were playing games, our leader turned on some christian music, like Hillsong United. <3 I just couldn't stop singing along. LOL, i just wanted to quit the game, and just sit beside the cd player and listen to the songs. HAHA.
