Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
-Any good horror film. Something that makes me feel a little uneasy and might even make me turn the lights on while watching it.
-Comedies. I love movies that can make you laugh no matter how many times you have seen them.
-Action movies. I'm definitely a Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg, & Quentin Tarantino fan.

Music:
I listen to a wide variety of music, especially since college. I like country, hip hop, techno, rock, etc.

I do not like the Jonas Brothers. Sorry fellas.

Books:
I have been on a bit of a Stephen King kick here lately.

I love books that make you cry, books that make you laugh, books that make you think.

A few of my all-time favorites are: Tuesdays with Morrie, The Shining, To Kill a Mockingbird & Where the Red Fern Grows.

Even though I'm not the best at Italian, I enjoyed reading Marcovaldo for one of my Italian classes.
