Korean film features big action, little message

A team of crouching police, weapons drawn, herds a wounded woman into a back alley. As they circle around her, guns aimed at her temples, her look changes from panic to a calm intensity. She spends a moment silently facing her captors and then makes her move.

Has the bubble burst?

With 13 minutes left in regulation in last Saturday’s game against rival Notre Dame, Fighting Irish power forward Ryan Humphrey collected his fourth foul, with the game tied at 61. Throughout the rest of the game, Georgetown Head Coach Craig Esherick instructed his team to pound the ball inside, trying to draw the final foul on Humphrey.

Finding a way forward

I prayed the other night.

I was lying in bed when it occurred to me how incredibly lucky I am to have a family, a group of friends and a campus community who care about and respect me in my entirety?and could care less if I like guys or girls. So I thanked God for that.

Te presento mi coochie snorcher

Just off the elevator on the third floor of Leavey, I picked up the audition material for The Vagina Monologues. I took my place amidst a dozen or so girls (women) waiting to be called in and turned my attention to the script. I got to word six. Then I stopped.

Women behind the lens

Every child has done it. Scanning through the tightly-packed shelves of yellow, bound magazines that your parents so religiously collected, hoping to pick out a volume of National Geographic filled with pictures of wild animals, exotic places and even bizarrely dressed, but usually undressed, people.

Like a prayer

I prayed the other night.

I was just lying in bed, feeling pretty good, and suddenly I found myself saying the “Hail Mary” in my mind. I’m not sure why. I wasn’t looking for a favor.

Praying might be the kind of thing that some people do all the time, but God and I haven’t been on speaking terms in a few years.
