The Reel Square

Upon recruiting myself back to civilian, a.k.a. ordinary life, i'd basked myself in numerous movies and tv series. It's freedom! I had the time back then, but i just devoted it to recover by soundly shutting eyes.

I had a notepad file of the movies i've watched (and remembered). However, it got 'lost' when i wasn't able to retrieve it during the repair of my old pc.

I've never watched this much film given a short amount of time. Here's my summer list:

Taps
A Few Good Men
A Serbian Film
Argo
Born on the Fourth of July
The Dictator
Django Unchained
Flag of our Fathers
Letters from Iwo Jima
Iron Man 3
Platoon
Pulp Fiction
Rain Man
The Great Raid
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
The Hurt Locker
The Silence of the Lambs
Zero Dark Thirty

I've revisited a couple of silver screen marvels too:

Babel
Crash
Toy Story 3
Skyfall
Minority Report
In Bruges


I lifted most of them from Wikipedia. Some won best picture, some were high grossing films or they starred Tom Cruise.

I'm quite exited to watch the following:

White House Down
Fast and Furious 6
World War Z
The Wolverine
2 Guns

the fresh rush

On my way to NIP for my P72.1 practicals

It was not the ordinary summer that was tolerable four years ago, but it wasn't the worst time of the day to walking going to class. I heard someone rushing from behind while i was navigating through the Math parking lot. I don't know if it was the stomping of the feet, her things, or her quickly paced breaths that gave me a rear mirror view of the person. She asked, "Kuya, mala.. saan po yung NIP?" I was glad to help by pointing to the direction of the building, and I had thoughts of accompanying her. That was a negative since she seemed late for the Freshman Orientation Program, and i didn't like to run just to guide her all the way.

She rushed looking so stressed. Two paths leading to the CS Complex and NIP made her stop on her tracks, and she seemed troubled. She looks back while i was still casually walking towards Physics, and i pointed out for her to take a right.

I thought she could manage already, or she was gone. As i approached the court, she stopped and looked back again. I pointed out the building while giving a hint that it was already the one she was looking for.

Sa sobrang bilis ko din naman maglakad, naabutan ko siyang pumipirma ng mga papel bago siya pumasok sa silid. Nakatutuwa lang na may pangyayaring mga ganon sa UP. Freshie days. Freshie days na sa tingin ay hindi naman ako nagmukhang naliligaw, "lost" o "confused". Masaya ako na nakatulong ako sa kanya, at sana makita ko siya ulit na chill na naglalakad sa UP (malamang matapos 4-5 taon pa).

Pakiramdam ko may dalawa akong mali sa pagsusulit.
