"seekers"

Got back from the OSB 'farm' in St. Scholastica Pampanga today. It was a wonderful experience for me. Had a sort of retreat there. The place was wonderful. So peaceful and cozy.
My friend, Razel invited me there and I thought it was just like a retreat but it seemed to me like more of an invitation for 'sisterhood'. I guess one of the things that I realized there is that I don't have this 'calling'.
I was also guilty because of the little lies that I said which lead to another. I was sorry about it. Sometimes I just can't help but lie because it's just so difficult to explain things. But I'll try to avoid telling lies as much as possible...
We got in the place around 5 PM. There were also some "seekers" (that's the term that was written in their bulletin board... a sort of "Welcome Dear Seekers") there and most are high school students.
We attended the anticipated mass at around 6 and the church was like 15-minute away on foot. Had dinner then prayer and some teaching from the nuns there.
We then had our night swimming at 10 PM and slept around midnight.. It was pretty cool even if I can't swim at all.
We then woke up a bit early (past 7) and had this prayer and breakfast. After breakfast we had some bible study and teaching then "sharing".
Went home earlier than the rest because of the lie that I told my sister and so I thought I need to go home early.
It was my first time to go to Pampanga and was pretty excited to go home all by myself. I like trying new adventures. One thing I like staying in Manila is because it makes me a braver to explore the places that I've never been to.
I was really tired when I got back home especially because I never had enough sleep for two nights. Slept around 4:30 AM the other day then didn't have enough sleep too today so I was like really really tired and sleepy so got a short nap after I got back home then went out to buy some groceries.
