    I`m drawn to stories about ordinary people who get tangled up in an extraordinary event or idea or emotion. I`m not saying I don`t love films about super-people or super-doctors, but my preference is for stories about how we get through this life, what it is to be human, because I`m always struggling with it myself. ─ Sophie Okonedo

    AWESOME ACTRESS!!!!

    SUMMER=LEISURE READING!!

    YET, I have a list of books on women’s studies, black women’s activism & etc I plan to read, buy, or both……….LOL.

    My mom thinks I’m a professional student.

    After my Master’s, I’ll do what God says to do.

    Things I’d love to do:

    * Ph.D - in what?….TBA

    * MFA-Poetry

    * Work for a non-profit

    *Publish a few books of poetry & a mixtape type thing with my poems to music.

    Not a professional student. Just a lot of goals and dreams.
