--Jamaica Kincaid: Annie John
--Aime Cesaire: Une Saison au Congo

Yes, most of them are anthro books and ethnographies... I am the epitome of 'nerdy' and it's only become worse with college.
On another note, I really love teas at the President's house. I did a remarkable job of avoiding talking to her at all costs while grabbing my favorite foods (especially the cucumber sandwiches with no crusts and warm scones...heaven...)
That's all I got!
