Hello Jacob and everybody,

I think that Synaptic

sudo apt-get install synaptic

may be good for you. When you launch this program, you choose category 
of program, and browse programs in table. To go to next program, press 
down-arrow, to go to next data of program, press right-arrow. You may 
sort programs, search, install, fix, update and remove. Synaptic is the 
best!

In my view, VLCMedia Player

sudo apt-get install vl

c

may be good to play films, CDs and sounds. This program is highly 
customizable. If you preffere minimalistic program to listen sounds, 
choose audacious

sudo apt-get install audacious.

Thunderbird is good email client. You maybe know it from Windows.

sudo apt-get install thunderbird

Caution: Perhaps you will have thunderbird in English version. I had 
Thunderbird installed by default on my Ubuntu, I reinstalled it, and I 
have English thunderbird. I don't found good text editor and pdf reader 
and IRC client. If you are interested in this programs, I can announce 
you, when I find some program.

Greetings,

Paulina
