MUSIC
My music taste gets better every year, I believe. Yes some artists such as Rihanna, and Justin Timberlake have people judging in my sanity (mainly Hannah) but who cares. You have to enjoy music, if you take it too seriously it loses its joy.
Unfortunally, my freaking iPod has crashed again (3 times within this week), deleting all my playlists (for those you have seen my iPod know I go purely off the million playlists I have) so I'm going to have to do my best to remember.

Season of Posion- Shiny Toy Guns
TV
I don't really have any new new tv shows on this list, but I have a bunch of new shows I discovered this year, that I became completely obessed with: Bones, Roswell, Firefly, and million British shows (Doctor Who, Kingdom, Skins, Robin Hood, Torchwood....). And Saturday Night Live within the last three months).
Older Shows I keep watching:
Reaper
Lost [this show really just keeps getting better]
Pushing Daises
Chuck [ditto]
I was enjoying Heroes until this third season- WTF is going on? so freakin dumb, I haven't watched it since October. & I was growing tired of Ugly Betty.
MOVIES:
With inflated prices, lack of anything good, and being so busy, I didn't get much time to go the theaters this year, but here are the I really liked; 27 Dresses, Wanted, Hancock, Indy Four & Mama Mia. I also saw Twilight, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, & Made of Honor, but I didn't really like any of those, except Twilight made me laugh like crazy. Also I enjoyed Slumdog Millionare, but I streamed it online.
Favorite DVDed:
Death at a Funeral
The Darjeeling Limited
St. Trinian's
The Mummy 3 [actually liked it a bit, surprisingly].
Films that looked brillant that I really wanted to see:
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
The Dark Knight (no comment that I still haven't seen it, alright?)
