Recollection day..
..This morning was our recollection day, I was not really excited. Why? because I know that I might cry by the brothers’ sermons. When we were getting started, we sang few songs. Then the Marian Missionaries started to do their thing. The first brother explained to us the meaning or “recollection” and what that is for. The second brother taught us some (sort of) Bible lessons about Christ’s suffering that washed away our sins and that we should open our hearts to Him. I admit, I was feeling sleepy but I was trying so hard not to let myself fall asleep because I know that it would offend the speaker.
..Then came brother cash,.
..I could remember that he was the same person who entered our school’s prayer room when we were about to celebrate the Holy month of rosary..
..He told us the same story,.
..and new stories..
..then his story,. He told us his’ struggles when he was studying. It was really a heart-warming story.
..then he told us to close our eyes while he was making us imagine the thing that he was trying to say and to make us realize things. He cried. He was begging us not to look at him. It made most of us cry.
..I can’t explain it actually,.
but it made most of us cry our hearts out.

..after the recollection, we had a thanksgiving mass. Tezza asked me to replace Katrina in offering the flowers. But the teachers were on a hurry, I was asked to bring the candles instead. I was shocked, because I will be the first one to walk on the aisle. I didn’t know what to do withe the candles as well. When I reached in front of the priests, I was trying to ask him where should I bring the candles. But I guess, he didn’t notice. and I thought that I should put it down, on the floor. So, I bent my knees but he was getting the candles. Now I know that I should be giving them to him. haha! that was so embarrassing..
