desert island

just watched the office's "the fire" (on a break from thesis writing) and got inspired by the desert island game. SO!

blog readers:
if you were to end up on a desert island:
what three books would you want with you?
what four CDs?
what five movies?

this is my list:
*caveat for the books: whenever we used to do this kind of thing with Christians, we would always say, "besides the Bible," because people would always feel like they would have to say the Bible. i would make that caveat here, but i really do want to take the Bible, so i'll own my stuff.

books:
1. the Bible
2. persuasion, jane austen (for when i'm feeling romantic)
3. a poetry anthology of some sort. maybe "A Book of Luminous Things" (international) or that book we got in Peter Harris' class, "Contemporary American Poetry."

CDs:
1. Lauryn Hill's "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill"
2. My "Musicals Rule" mix (is that cheating? if it is, Les Miserables.)
3. Counting Crow's "August and Everything After"
4. One of my Christian/gospel mixes (again, if that's cheating, Third Day's "Offerings")

movies:
1. Anne of Green Gables/Anne of Avonlea (i'm counting them as one)
2. Pride and Prejudice (1995)
3. Breakfast Club
4. Princess Bride
5. My So Called Life First Season


boy that was kind of hard! especially the books! i wanted three more choices!
