tonight i was rummaging through old files, searching for materials to share with my class. i found some really great stuff: booklists from college, conference papers i wrote and can still stand by, materials for a workshop i did freshman year on the i-hotel…

and also this: a compilation of lists circa fall 2007 in havana, cuba when i was missing home, hella hard. it made me smile, thinking i once wore jeans (hee) and about the crazy material things i coveted when i had none; and also sad because i made a similiar list of things i’d miss when i left havana.

korres eye gel, hand cream
