Like always around this time of year, I present to you my favourite music and movies from the past year. I am posting this a little early because I will not be home on New Years day, nor have access to a computer where I am. In music it looks like Arctic Monkeys and Copeland have a two year streak going on. Also, just like before, the movie list is weak due to my watching of older movies throughout the year instead of going to the theatre.
