This was the saddest and most painful movie I have ever watched. I generally have a heart of steel, but the real video clips were too much for me, I had to watch it in two sittings. It’s important to remember when watching something like this to not hate everyone in this particular region, and that a lot of this is political/religious struggle.

This was very hard to read, but the issues described by the author felt so real. He really dived into the deep and personal feelings of insanity that our main character fell into. I suggest reading it twice, once so you can get the idea and become familiar with how it’s written, then again to understand the details.

It’s silly, but I find this movie comforting when I’m sick. Also since I have a five year old sister it’s nice when we find movies that we can watch together!

I really loved the idea of this book. The author did a good job in stating over and over that his thoughts were merely a hypothesis (untested idea based on scientific grounds), although some of the “proof” for his ideas are more easily disproved than others. My only complaint was that I felt that he had some anger or frustration while writing the book and his afterword, and I think he could have had less bias. Otherwise, I really liked it!

I really love some of these sitcoms, this one is probably my favorite.

This is a very lighthearted podcast that dives into the realm of all things fringe. I find the hosts’ mixture of intellect with humor makes for a podcast I can listen to on my commute!

This book, despite being written in an older English, was very funny and a worthwhile read. Conveniently, it was also quick.

I enjoyed it with my 5-year-old sister. It was a little creepy for her and had a sweet plot. I personally wasn’t a fan of the most of the music, but I don’t really think it was bad.

The only word I could conjure up for this show was PROFOUND. I loved the show, it was quiet and soft but had a very sharp edge. A work of art, this show had me in tears over the ideas and thoughts of life and of love. Beautiful.
