How Many Circuit's Needed

I am wondering if I should run 1 or 2 15amp circuit's for this. I have 1 there now, would need to pull the 2nd if needed. Here is what I have:

Switch 1 = Ceiling fan and light kit
Switch 2 = Diningroom light fixture
Switch 3 = 4 65w recessed lights
Switch 4 = 4 65w recessed light's
Switch 5 = 4 35w recessed light's
Hood Vent (2.2 amp's)

What do you think?

The only thing I might change is the vent hood.
If you ever think you are going to install and over the range microwave, it should be on its own circuit.
If you never plan on that, then disregard this message!

If these are all in one room I would put them on 2 circuits. This way if one light breaker goes out, you still have lights.
