2001 Photo. King + Jane + Gina. The legendary trio of DLSU Pol-Sci batch 99. [Jane]: Remember the time we were trying out for the DLSU softball team? How about that night after softball practice we were rehearsing that pep squad routine and you and king kept on asking me to teach you all over again? Haha! How about that time when we performed in the classroom for Fay? And everyone was looking like we lost our heads?  ::: It’s only when you share your life to others that life begins to have meaning and purpose.

(Scene from Exorcist) 

Regan: What an excellent day for an exorcism

Regan: I’m the devil!

Karras’ Mother: Why you do this to me, Dimmy?

Pazuzu: Your mother’s in here, Karras.  Would you like to leave a message?  I’ll see that she gets it.

Father Damien Karras: You’re not my mother.

I woke up at 3am, startled because my bed was shaking! I just watched Exorcist yesterday and I thought I only had a super-active imagination when I felt my night comfort shake underneath. Then I heard this rattling sound, like grains in a shaker cup. I lied there half-awake, in the cold dew of the morning, staring up at the white ceiling of my personal space which is known to my family as MY LIL ROOM, trying to discern what’s happening and if I’m about to enter the twilight zone. Surprisingly, I was as calm as the dead leaves in fall. After a couple of minutes, the shaking finally subsided. Still fazed from the incident, I still didn’t know whether it was just a human condition or a fact that I experienced. It was when I got to the office that I realized that it was indeed an earthquake because everyone was talking about it. I figured out later that the rattling came form the box of Nerds [candies] I had on top of my computer desk. Oh man!

Dodgeball was plainly hilarious.  I am a big Ben Stiller fan from his movies, Reality Bites, Starsky & Hutch, Keeping the Faith, Along Came Polly, Duplex, and of course, Meet the Parents [laughed the hardest on this one!].  However, I wasn’t expecting much from this film.  But I started laughing as soon as the movie rolled.  *Ben Stiller plays the clueless proprietor of Globo Gym.  A crew of social misfits who patronize Average Joe’s, the local gym, band together to save their beloved fitness center from being taken over by their competitor, Globo Gym, a fitness club chain which is a corporate behemoth. The motley group of rejects includes a gangly geek whose illusions revolve around a cheerleader way out of his league, a self-acclaimed pirate, a young simpleton, an enthusiast of far-out sports, and a smart ass who’s actually pea-brained. Average Joe’s owner Peter LaFleur, played by Vince Vaughn leads his team of, well, losers against the cocky White Goodman [Stiller]* The cool nonchalant attitude of Vince Vaughn in this movie and Ben’s slapstick comedy complemented each other.  What impressed me is how the director was able to make the game as appealing and intense as basketball movies.  If you need quite a laugh, Dodgeball is worth your dime.

Four buckets of popcorn! and laughter!
