I haven't been in the movie watching mood lately. The best kids movie recently has been Cars 2 which was really cute. I finally sat down to watch the Harry Potter series and although I'm not a fan of it, I thought they were pretty well put together movies. Other than that nothing new to report

I like anything from Nightwish to Josh Groban, to Nickelback and Phil Collins, with everything in between. I also enjoy movie soundtracks a lot. Some of my favorite are Gladiator, Transformers, The Tudors, and pretty much anything from the many movies Hans Zimmer has worked on, Klaus Badelt from POTC, Jim Brickman, Jablonsky, James Horner and many others. Two Steps From Hell and Thomas Bergersen are my latest obsessions. LoVe their MuSic!! Also, a great group that's in the same realm is Corner Stone Cues. They have a couple of pretty good pieces too. Check them out. I would also like to recommend MusicToHealUrSoul, Jennyni200, CapeTranquility and TwoStepsFromTheMusic's channel as great sources for epic music. I have found so much that I love on these channels and would like to send out a thanks for that! So thank you all!

Being in college I don't have much time to read for pleasure. Most of my time is spent with science courses, but I read with my kid and we've gone through hundreds of children's books. Some of my favorite for him is Mercer Meyer (sp?), Silverstein, Sendak, Dr. Seuss, etc. I've enjoyed reading with my kid not only because it's quality time, but because of the values of the book which I know are embedded in the mind for kids to make future relations to in regards to their experiences in the world. I believe that if you want a child to make good decisions read them books with good values.
