Music, Movies, and Books

Movies that entertain me. It's their job. I really don't enjoy movies like Wrestler or Irreversible they just make me sad. But movies with great heroes like Conan, Armageddon and stuff will entertain easily. But yeah movies are just entertainment.

Books in the other hand are something more serious for me. One of my all time favourite book must be Neil Gaiman American Gods other Gaimans are good too. Bukowski books are my travel partners and they make me smile everytime. I don't like books about crimes and stuff that much but I have to Stieg Larsson Millenium trilogy is awesome! Dmitri Gluhovski Metro 2033 and 2034 really rocked my world. I have to say for a teacher I have some kind of responsibility to read as much as I can childer books and books for youngsters. So I have read all Potters, Percy Jacksons, Stuart Hills Icemark chronicles and really tried to read Twilights but they were just too bad (got to the 3rd one).

Music! Heya! I like all kind of good music. Good music = music that I like. Smashing Pumpkins must be the one of the big ones for me. As I look my playlist now there is Streets, Castevet, Moving Mountains, JJ72, Saosin, Everything is made in China, Ellie Goulding, Sigur Ros (Takk is one of the best albums EVER!), Jaakko & Jay, Modest Mouse, Listener, Hellsongs, We were promised jetpacks, Jim Ward, Sparta, Gaslight Anthem, Bloc Party, Against Me! etc =)

Yeah I can play guitar a bit if you are interested.
