It's the Sunday before I take my ASVAB (for those that didn't know I'm trying to join the Air Force reserves) and I'm hyped on coffee. I don't want to study anymore. Am I prepared? I think I can prepare a little more, but for the most part I think I'll be ok. According to GP I just need a whopping 40 percent to pass. I don't know about that you guys, 40. It's gonna be a tough one. ::note the sarcasm::
I went camping this weekend. The liwanag retreat actually, but I called it 'camping' cause I think my mom still might be sensitive about me not being able to let go of that group. Did I ever mention she thought that liwanag was the reason I was staying in Irvine? When really it was the people in liwanag that made stay, not really 'liwanag' itself. Ok, maybe it was also because of what liwanag represented, but hey, it's You. Right? So ya, I just told my mom was 'camping,' but I did tell her that I was going with 'Kirsten, Brenton, you know, friends' hahaha, which is true!
I didn't sleep well Friday night cause of the uneven and bumpy ground I was sleeping on, and not to mention the sleeping buddy next too me that kept pushing me closer and closer to the side of the tent and getting ALL up in my bubble jk =D
I do admit though, going camping and being in complete darkness at around 8:30pm is always an adventure. The stars are so much nicer out there too.
Actually, as I was leaving the camp site yesterday, I got really sad. I usually finish retreats and I think for the first time (maybe in a long time) I didn't finish one. It reminded me of when I was driving to San Diego from Irvine the last time. No, I didn't cry, but seeing a lot of people this weekend made me realize a lot of things. It might be different for everyone that see each other once or twice a week, or even on a daily basis, but with almost 3 weeks of not seeing anyone, seeing everyone on Friday really meant a lot. I really looked forward to it. It's an interesting feeling. It's a good reminder of the things and people that I do have in life; it's a very good reminder. Too bad I can't fully explain it. Do you get what I mean Meechy? Janice? Alina? Frances? Who else moved home home?
Ok, like I said, I have a test tomorrow. I guess I'll get cracking on that again. Thanks for everything, btw.
