Homecoming: The Most Wonderful Time
of the Year
By JULIE PHAM VU
assistant editor
Homecoming: This is the most
important week of the school year, the
one week where freshmen and seniors,
polka dots and stripes, or Celtics
fans and Lakers fans can coexist
peacefully. This is the time where
every student is proud to be a Monarch.
We started off the week with mixnot-match-day. I may have shed tears
of joy when I heard of this spectacular
day. Finally, I could wear polka dots
with zebra stripes, and not be judged.
Not that this has ever stopped me before,
but it was comforting to see my fellow
classmates wearing the same thing.
Even teachers rocked plaid pants
and striped shirts with mix-matched
shoes. The sight was magnificent. It
was like looking into a very bright and
unusual crayon box. Every spectrum
of the color wheel was projected
onto our clothing, and it was epic.
Of course, everyone looked
absolutely ridiculous, but the best
part was that it was perfectly okay!
And when I walked downstairs
and my mother gave me the usual
disapproving look for my unorthodox,
yet positively superb outfit, this time I
had a legitimate excuse. Oh, the glory!
If the purpose of mix-not-match

color-blind, (2) just blind, in general, or (3)
like aliens trying to disguise themselves
as humans (I must admit, they succeeded).
Next was Western Wednesday (props
to Scott Bowman for the awesome
proposal and AP-caliber alliteration).
On this wonderfully western day, the

Mater Dei student body witnessed an
extraordinary array of plaid flannel shirts;
brown leather boots; and large belt buckles.
Then came the day where tension boiled,
where best friends turned to enemies,

Dead Man Walking
Indian Exchange Students Live the Life of Monarchs
By COREY HAMMOND
editor-in-chief
It’s rare that we get to meet people
from across the world that are the same age
as our Mater Dei students. We have so much
to learn from other cultures and ethnicities—
things that will benefit both societies and
create a more peaceful world in the long run.
Mater Dei hosted ten Indian exchange
students September 28th through October 8th.
During their stay, the exchange students were
able to experience our lifestyle, while we
learned from them about their own culture.
It all started on a Wednesday
morning when the exchange students
met their hosts. Nick Manning, Nick
and Jaqueline Adams, Sean Finck, and
David and Jessica Ure were the exquisite
tour guides for the exchange students.
The hosts awaited their upcoming
experience with anticipation. “I was very
excited to be a host for students that were so
far from our community,” said David Ure.
Right
from
the
beginning,
the hosts had plans for the exchange
students in order to keep them busy.
“On Saturday morning, we took them
surfing, and in the evening, we went to a
Blink 182 concert. On Sunday, they went to
the Blessing of the Waves [at the Huntington
Beach Pier], then to the Mission San
Juan Capistrano,” explained Jennifer Ure.
After such excitement during the
weekend, the students attended classes and
lived the daily life of a Mater Dei student.
“The lifestyle is very structured
in America,” said Anirudh (Andy)
Korukonda, an Indian exchange student.
“Everyone follows a timetable. If I
lived here, I would be late all the time.”
Because it was Homecoming week,
the exchange students were able to see
Mater Dei’s true school spirit. They first
went to the Homecoming Showcase, where
they observed the amazing dance routines
by the students and faculty. There was
no better way to end their trip than with
a Mater Dei football game, in which our
football athletes smothered Gardena, 52-16.
When all was over, both cultures
learned many things from each other.
“Their roads are crazy in India,
and they mostly ride bikes,” said Jennifer
Ure. “Their lives are not as busy as ours.”
Sai Saketh Vanaparthi said
America is very different than India,
specifically because “People actually
follow traffic rules on the roads,” he said.
Unfortunately, the Indian exchange
students had to return home, but they were
able to take home what they learned from
us, and tell their family and friends what
they saw and experienced. We, the Mater
Dei community, also get to do this. We

fan, Angel or Cub, Bruin or Trojan,
Edward or Jacob. This was Jersey Day.
It’s always very interesting to
see the incredible breach within the
student body over sports. Throughout
the day, you could hear people
arguing over which team is better
than others. And there was always one
person in the back who rooted for the
underdog, like the Washington Wizards.
However, come Friday, the student
body was united once again in school
pride. This was the Homecoming
game and, luckily, we were all rooting
for the same team. The Mater Dei
football team dominated the scoreboard
against Gardena, with a final score of
52 to 16. And the crowd went wild.
Let’s not forget to mention the
extremely anticipated announcement
of the 2011-2012 Homecoming
Queen, Alexa Vellanoweth, who
looked breathtakingly gorgeous as she
walked down the football field, along
with the other stunning princesses, Devin
Barrett, Isabel Lozowski, Alexis
Meruelo, and Tracy Wigmore.
The energy within the stadium was
overwhelming. Imagine placing your ear
next to a shotgun while it’s being fired
multiple times. That would be nothing,
compared to the excruciatingly
piercing roars of the Mighty Monarchs
as Vellanoweth’s name was announced.

Project Discourse: 2011
By KATIE GATIAN
assistant editor
Following thought-provoking shows
including The Diary of Anne Frank (2009)
and Skin of Our Teeth (2010) -- of years
past, Project: Discourse 2011, Dead Man
Walking, is sure to ignite powerful discussion
and touch the hearts and minds of all.
Based on her novel, Tim Robbins’
play focuses on Sister Helen Prejean
as she delves into a battle of morals. The
powerful drama illustrates both sides
of the capital punishment case of Matt
Poncelet, with Sister Helen as his spiritual
counselor during his time on Death Row.
“This play is about dignity. This
play is about sacrifice. This play is about
devotion,” said Williams, “I hope through
classroom participation, the campus
will begin a dialogue about human
rights and the power of redemption.”
In preparing for a show that brings
up the controversial issue of the death
penalty, Performing Arts Director Mr.
Patrick Williams “is using a brand-new
rehearsal technique that involves a ton of
reflection to allow actors and actresses to
completely understand their characters.”
said junior Casey Brecher, who plays
the rough and tough convict, Poncelet.
“We focus more on the emotion and the
concepts of the play and characters. Through
the emotions, the blocking and memorizing
the lines come to us naturally,” adds senior
Joanna Cornejo, who portrays one of two
Sister Helens in the show. A creative choice
unique to this MD production is the casting of
two Mater Dei actresses to play Sister Helen
as opposed to the traditional one actress.
Williams explains, “One actress is
the narrator and the other actress is in the
scenes. This allows the audience to hear
and see the story of Sister Helen’s life as
told by [senior] Bryana Corza, and as
portrayed in 1984 by Joanna Cornejo.”
Cornejo adds, “One Sister Helen
is reflecting upon the actions that are
taking place, and the other is living the
actions with all the other characters.”
This original spin should provide for a
fresh and dynamic look on the story that’s
bound to keep the audience on its toes.
Backing up the leads are a talented
supporting cast and ensemble. Seniors Alexa
Vellanoweth and Matt Pancoe play Sister
Colleen, best friend and confidante to Sister
Helen, and prison chaplain, respectively.
Seniors Matt Dallal and Veronica Valencia
bring in the raw emotions of a murder case
to life as the parents of Poncelet’s young
victims.
Adding a perspective that is
commonly overlooked in a case involving
capital punishment is senior Jackie Janowicz
as Lucielle Poncelet, Matt’s mother.

4. Have you competed in any competitions, either locally or nationally?

5. What most do you enjoy about
beat boxing? Is it your passion?
I like the fact that many people have
not heard of it before. It is unique.
6. Do you plan to become a professional beat boxer? Where do you plan
on taking your beat boxing talent?
I intend on using my talent to make money, which I will ultimately give to charity.
7. Which beat boxer would you
say is your number one influence?
I would have to say my influences
in the beat boxing world came from
Ranzel, Felix Zanger, and Eklips.
8. How do you think beat boxing, or music in general, contributes to society?
I believe beat boxing and music in general are positive aspects in society. Beat
boxing helps people express themselves.
I want to be known worldwide, and help
young, aspiring artists to become recognized.

Many of the students of Mater Dei have
seen Rocky Pajarito greet them in the
morning on MDTV. Now the Scarlet Scroll
will take a closer look at his multiple talents.
1. What do
about
your
you enjoy most
multiple
talents?
I suppose that I just enjoy being wellrounded in some sense, especially in terms
of things I love. I have multiple passions
in life, and I love to write and talk about
them, as well as partake in my own attempts to create in aforementioned fields.
Being able to play an instrument helps create a sense of individualism, as well as a notion of teamwork, mainly when in a band.
And, of course, being a drummer has taught
me how to multitask, which has helped
productivity in many aspects of my life!
2. Whendidyoulearnhowtoplaythedrums?
Around 5th grade, I was in a Las Vegas arcade and I saw a Japanese drumming video
game that pretty much let you hit a bunch
of black pads with bamboo sticks to your
choice picks of 90s classics. Being adventurous to the weakest of degrees, I popped
in the appropriate amount of quarters and
began to play a Limp Bizkit song (I was a
“cool kid”), followed by a Cake song. Something turned on in my head, and after playing, the first thing I told my parents was that
I demanded a drum set when we got back
home. I obviously didn’t get it immediately,
but they were on board with the idea, and
I began to drum on random, solid surfaces whenever I could, and I still do today!
3. What excites you most about music?
The de-constructionist look at music and
general feel music gives off probably excites me the most. The unspoken magic of
team play and brilliance of structure colliding into one, beautiful explosion are just
magnificent. Instruments bouncing back and
Jonathan Gill
As much as I do love music and playing
it, I don’t intend on making it my career
or majoring in the field. That said, I do intend on continuing to learn on the side if
I can--I still wish to learn how to play the
guitar, and to get back into playing the piano, and even continue to develop my percussion prowess. Though I won’t make it
my priority, I readily admit that music is
one of the most important parts of my life.
eo game journalists such as Jeff Gerstmann
and Ryan Davis of Giant Bomb, not because
they’re hilarious men, but because they have
integrity and excellent eyes and a handle
on their own mediums of choice. So, for a
while, I followed suit, and tried my hand
at reviewing games and just talking about
them. In 7th grade, I realized that I kind of
like movies, and started to notice some small
things, like camera trickery or editorial
gags, and not so much as recognized them,
but recognized the fact that I found them
funny, and that it was strange. I applied my
writing for video games to movies, and from
then on, attempted to develop my own voice
and writing ability, as well as build upon my
knowledge of movies. In 2009, I saw Jody
Hill’s Observe and Report, and that more or
less got me into the deeper aspects of film,
technically and story-wise. It kick-started
my wholehearted and deep-seeded love for
the art of film and filmmaking, as well as my
more detailed description of such a passion.
5. Why did

you decide to beMDTV
anchor?
8. Have you published any of your reviews to
the local media newspapers or the Internet?
I’ve always wanted to work behind the
scenes primarily, but I decided that I needed to work on my public speaking abilities.
I’m notorious for speaking quietly and too
fast, which is not necessarily an excellent
combination. So I have come to learn that
it is quite fun to anchor, and as I expected,
it helped and continues to help me work
on my enunciation and speaking abilities.
I have posted all my reviews on the Internet, or the World Wide Web, if you’d
prefer. Both in depth and in mini, “fun”
size reviews I’ve written can be found on
Screened.com/profile/NOFX4208/reviews.
A few video reviews of mine, as well as
short films and videos I have helped make
lie in the pits of YouTube, and the reviews also end up on the MDTV website.

forth off of each other shows chemistry being shared, which I think is necessary in all
working things, and the progression of pace
and notes impresses me constantly. Not many
would consider it in the same way, but I see
music as story-telling and emotion-bearing
device. And the power to which it is utilized
and portrayed is purely fascinating to me.
4. Do you plan on advancing
your music skills in the future,
such as in college or as a career?
of beMDTV?
The class gives me opportunities to learn
and work in the subject that I truly admire and appreciate--video production.
I get to work in teams and learn the ropes
of both film and television production,
and get very in-depth lessons on the how
and why of practically everything. It’s a
very hands-on experience, which I love,
and the excellent teachers let me be free
creatively for the most part, as well help
me develop and learn in the field of work.
7. I know you’re an awesome movie critic. What all started your
passion
for
critiquing
movies?
I suppose it stemmed from another passion
of mine, which is video games. Around 5th
or 6th grade, I got really into following vid-
I will continue to do reviews as much as I
have time for, and will spout my opinion on
any medium I can get my hands on, whether
people want to hear it or not! In seriousness,
film, as stated before, is a hardcore passion
in my life, so no matter how my life goes,
I’ll always be talking and writing about
movies. I truly just want to be involved in
filmmaking in some capacity or another. I’d
love to be a writer/director, but at the same
time, I’m in love with just about everything
involved in filmmaking, including editing,
camera work, sound work, and even acting.
So I’d love to be a director and writer, but if
I end up editing or operating a camera, I’d be
happy to be part of the art-creating process.

in tea for a minute and then hang over shower curtain rod to dry. Repeat if
bandages don’t come out grungy enough for you.
2. Wearing the long johns, start by loosely wrapping gauze around your torso. You should wrap each section of your body separately to prevent yourself from slowly unraveling all night. Every couple of feet cut the gauze and
tie knots to get that rumpled Lon Chaney look. Powder yourself liberally.
3. If you don’t want to completely cover your face, you can make a pretty
gruesome rotting flesh effect by mixing 8 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
with 5 tablespoons of warm water. Mix the resulting dough with a small
amount of Elmer’s glue and apply unevenly to your face and let dry for 15
minutes.
TIP: Black fingernail polish and plastic beads or gaudy baubles are a must. After all,
mummies can take it with them.

HALLOWEEN
Have a Creepy Crawly
Halloween!!

Halloween Ghost Meringue Recipe:
A Ghostly Surprise!
Yield: 24 ghosts
Ingredients:
• 2 egg whites, room temperature
• 1/8 tsp cream of tartar
• 3/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 tsp flavored extract, like vanilla or almond
• 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate
• toasted nuts, coconut, or sprinkles (optional)
Preparation:
1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Place the room temperature
egg whites in the clean bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk
attachment (Alternately, you can use a large bowl and a hand mixer
with whisk attachments).
2. Turn the mixer to medium-high speed and beat until the egg
whites are foamy. Turn the mixer off, add the cream of tartar, and
continue beating on medium-high until the whites have turned an
opaque white color and hold soft peaks.
3. At this point, start adding the powdered sugar a few spoonfuls
at a time with the mixer running. Once all of the sugar has been
added, add any extracts you are using and turn the mixer to high
speed. Continue to beat the egg whites until they are very thick,
glossy, and a shiny white color. When you stop the mixer and lift
the whisk out of the whites, the whites should have a very stiff
peak. This process will take about 7-12 minutes in a stand mixer.
4. Cover two baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop your
meringue mixture into a piping bag fitted with a ½ inch round tip,
or if you don’t have this, into a large Ziploc bag with a ½ inch
hole cut in the corner.
5. Pipe your meringue into ghost shapes about 1-1/2 inches wide
and 2 inches tall. You can either do this by squeezing the bag and
pulling up gradually, making one big “blobby” ghost, or by making
a series of concentric circles spiraling upward. Pipe 12 ghosts
onto each baking sheet, for a total of about 2 dozen meringue
ghosts.
6. Bake the meringues in the preheated oven for an hour. After an
hour, open the oven door and continue to cook for 30 minutes, then
turn the oven off, close the door, and allow the meringues to sit
until completely cool, about 1 hour.
7. Once the meringues are crisp and at room temperature, melt
the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring after every 30
seconds to prevent overheating. If you want to coat the bottoms in
crushed nuts, sprinkles, or toasted coconut as well, place those
toppings in small, shallow bowls nearby.
8. Dip the bottoms of the ghosts in the melted chocolate, and
scrape the bottoms against the lip of the bowl to remove excess
chocolate. If you’re dipping them in other toppings, immediately
press the bottom of the ghost into the bowl of toppings so they
adhere to the wet chocolate. Replace the dipped ghost back on the
baking sheet and repeat with remaining ghosts and chocolate. Dip
a toothpick in the remaining melted chocolate and give each ghost
two dots for eyes and, if you desire, a mouth or other features.
9. Refrigerate the ghosts to set the chocolate, about 5-10
minutes. Do not refrigerate them any longer than absolutely
necessary, as they will absorb moisture from the refrigerator
and lose their crispness. Store Meringue Ghosts in an airtight
container at room temperature.

recent graduate from medical school, who
after following a strict plan she’s made
for her life, is fired from her internship
and decides to take up an offer made to
work at a practice in the small Southern

the other town doctor and his Southern
Belle daughter, Lemon (Jamie King).

dies, Cassie Blake (Britt Robertson)
moves to Washington to live with her
grandmother and ultimately finds out that
she is part of a secret clan of witches.
Cryptic messages, abandoned houses,

PERSPECTIVE
Defining Who We Are
The Impact and Result of our Decisions
By ANGELA MARKWITH
assistant editor
Every day we are all faced with decisions that have to be made. Every day we
are forced to decide and to make choices
that could affect our lives, whether it’s in
the smallest way possible or the biggest
way possible. We are forced to choose
how we present ourselves as students and
men and women of society. We must decide how we will act and what we will say;
we have to choose how we will live each
day—whether that is morally or immorally.
When it comes to day-to-day decisions, we are forced to decide between
cheating and honesty, lying or telling the
truth, spreading rumors or keeping them
to ourselves, etc. These everyday decisions might not be considered a big deal;
however, the choices we make shape us
into becoming the individuals that we are.
As a result of our teenage way of
thinking, and our inability to at times step
outside situations, we don’t always realize
the effects of the decisions we make. We
do not contemplate the consequences and
results of our actions, especially when we
choose to make decisions we would not be
proud of later. The advice that everyone
should be given is that every action has
consequences, and it is up to us to accept
those consequences as a result of whatever choice that we make. A majority of
the time, our choices do not usually just
effect us, but rather, they have an effect
on those who surround us in our lives—
especially our parents and/or guardians.
In my opinion, the worst punishment
is to have your parents tell you that they are
disappointed in you. It is the worst feeling
to know that you have let down and disap-
pointed the people who have tried so hard
over your lifetime to instill morals in your
life and to raise you and shape you into a person with goals and integrity. It’s awful that
one choice, one bad decision, could damage that trust or perspective that our parents
have of us. No one wants to let down their
parents and letting them down is worse than
letting oneself down because, in my opinion, all we want is to make them to be proud
of us. All we want is to have them accept us
and love us, no matter the choices we make.
When we make mistakes and when
we choose wrongly, we learn. From these
wrong actions, we learn life lessons that
can only be understood through experience, which is why at times it’s healthy
to mess up. This doesn’t mean that we
should live our lives deliberately making
bad and immoral decisions; however, it is
through our decision-making that we are
able to learn and grow into adults of society.
With every choice big or small come
consequences whether they are good or bad.
The effect of the decisions we make teaches
us things that we cannot learn in a classroom or be taught by a teacher. In order to
be shaped into the person that we will one
day grow up to become, we must take every experience that we have dealt with, every piece of knowledge that we gained, and
be grateful that we are being given opportunities to mess up and to start over again.
From every action comes a consequence; from every consequence as a
result of our actions comes a learning experience; and from every learning experience we choose, define and shape
ourselves into who we want to become.
The Passing of Steve Jobs
Now Rests a Great Man of Business
By JONATHAN ALVARADO
assistant editor
On October 5, only a day after the
announcement of Apple’s latest product -the iPhone 4S -- the company’s strongest
leader and co-founder, Steve Jobs, lost his
battle with cancer. Many took to the medium
of technology to show their respect. But who
was this mysterious man, this turtleneckwearing symbol of innovation?
The public mainly knew him as
the leader of their house-favored computer
company. Jobs, with Steve Wozniak and
Ronald Wayne, founded Apple back in April
1, 1976. The company grew as a simple
maker of simple computers. It had a humble
start, with nothing foreshadowing the multinational empire it would one day become.
However, what many may not know
is that Jobs left Apple in the early years
due to a power struggle inside the board of
directors. Without Jobs, the company rose,
and then sharply fell. Apple struggled with
failed products which were unable to gain
any momentum of popularity.
Jobs eventually returned as an
advisor. He isn’t recognized for inventing
Apple’s most famous products, but for
knowing how to market them. He knew
beforehand, as if through a sixth sense,
what the market wanted and he knew how
to make his products desirable to the world.
Jobs pushed his company to keep pushing
the envelope by creating
things unheard of by
others. Jobs strived for
more, and without him,
Apple may still had been
left in the dust rather
leading the innovation
pack.
Even Jobs’ side
projects were highlighted
for success. Jobs acquired
Pixar when it was still
young, and look how
far it’s gone. The stories
created by Pixar, such
as Toy Story, A Bug’s
Life, Monsters Inc. and
Finding Nemo, still live
in many of our childhood
hearts.
Apple grew immensely through
the hard work of its people and the strong
leadership that ran through it. Each product,
whether you are aware of it or not, now
Thanksgiving Outreach

affects most of our daily lives. Through
business, through entertainment, and even
education (example: Mater Dei’s iPads)
Apple is leaving a mark in everyday life.
The
iPod
revolutionized
the
music
industry,
removing
the
need of physical
media storages and
digitalizing our entire
music libraries into
the palm of our hands.
The Mac remains as a
strong competitor to
the PC. The iPhone
shook the phone
industry and brought
out the need of
reinvention from all
other companies. And
now the iPad, as silly
as it seemed to some
at first, created an entirely new industry in
technology.
Jobs loved the company that he
helped nourish. Even during his final
months, when he knew that the pancreatic
cancer was hitting the best of him, he wanted
to remain connected. Even though he hung
up his turtleneck as CEO, he kept a lifeline
as chairman of the company.
No one saw his death coming. They
knew it was somewhere in the future, but
not so soon. Like a bad omen, the iPhone
4S event foreshadowed his premature
passing. Anyone who watched the Keynote
announcement on October 4 probably saw
the empty “reserved” seat that was present
in a couple of shots of the camera. Rumor
has it was Jobs’ seat.
I don’t want to try to make Jobs
sound more than he was. After all, he was
only a businessman that most of us never
knew. Yet we eagerly looked forward to
seeing him on stage, presenting the latest
gizmo on the market. It fascinated us that a
company of simple, ordinary people could
create things so revolutionary that they only
seemed possible in our dreams. His death
doesn’t mark the end of an era, but hopefully
just the end of a chapter.
Rest in peace Steve Jobs, your
strong messages of never giving up
and pushing through will forever push
your company and your admirers.

DEAD MAN WALKING, from
page 1
In kicking off the Performing Arts
productions of the 2011-2012 school year,
the cast and crew of Dead Man Walking hope
to stir up conversation about the death penalty, both in the classroom setting and out.
In addition to selected scenes
for all English classes (November 16,
17, 18, 21, and 22), the full-length performances are scheduled for November
18, 19, and 22 in the Monarch Pavilion.
The nerves and jitters of opening night
will cap off the emotion and excitement that
the cast puts in at rehearsals on a regular basis.
Brecher adds, “What excites me
the most about performing in this play is
the fact that I’m playing a very controversial character in a play about a very controversial issue. If the cast succeeds, it has
an opportunity to change a lot of minds.”
For additional preparation, the cast
is applying current events to the events in
9
the play to better comprehend the intensity of this issue that a group of teenagers
has not necessarily experienced firsthand.
“I am more aware of the death penalty issues going on right now, and that helps
me understand the magnitude of the situation that my character is in,” said Cornejo.
“It’s hard to understand, since
I’ve obviously never been on Death Row
or accused of murder,” states Brecher,
“but with enough focus and imagination, I basically become another person.”
Not every show has the potential
and the power to bring to the surface tough
issues and execute them in a tasteful yet
captivating way. Dead Man Walking does.
“It’s not just an ordinary play,”
said Cornejo, “I’m excited to bring
the audience into this journey that the
cast and crew has already begun.”
So come out the Monarch Pavilion
in mid-November for a show that’s sure
to ignite and inspire the MD community.

And last, but most definitely not
least, was the Homecoming Dance. And let
me just say, the long awaited dance did not
disappoint; it was--for lack of a better term-magical.
The song selection was not only
tasteful, but very original; the beautiful
decorations completely transformed the
