This year i'd like to learn more about The Cold War and events leading up to it because throughout the last couple of years in history, that seems to be the one topic we really didn't cover that well. 

         My favorite book is the confederacy of dunces by John Kennedy Toole. I enjoy this book because every time i read it, it makes me laugh. It is set in New Orleans, and based on a rather obese man who lives with his mother and his numerous attempts to keep a job and so much more. He struggles to do this because, in his mind, he is surrounded by imbeciles. It is a very entertaining book and i recommend it to most people. 

        My favorite movie would have to be either Inception, or the Prestige. Inception is a fantastic movie with a ton of twists, and once you think you've figured it out, something else arises to throw you off. What makes the movie so great to me is the fact that there are hardly any holes in the story. Everything can be explained. The Prestige, is also a great movie, about two battling magicians who are trying to ruin each others acts. Everything about the movie is great and entertaining. 

if i could live in another country other than the US, it would have to be England. I choose England because i wouldn't want to have a change too drastic. Of all the other countries, I think life in England would be as close as you can get.
