The Basics (Can't Really Change Them)
Name: Laura
Age: 30
Location: Helsinki, Finland

Currently, what are you...
... Reading? Ashes of the Sun (but wishing I was done with it already so I could move onto Cross Her Heart already)
... Watching? Independence Day right at this moment; more generally in the middle of a Die Hard re-watch, Gossip Girl re-watch, A Million Little Things s3, Brothers & Sisters s3, Supergirl s6, The Good Fight s5, LA's Finest s2, Supernatural re-watch (though am yet to finish s15...). I like to watch a bunch of stuff simultaneously.
... Listening to? My Spotify favorites playlist, which consists of stuff like Daughtry, Ayumi Hamasaki, BoA, MBLAQ, Demi Lovato, Bon Jovi, James Blunt, Måneskin, JoJo, Linkin Park... Oh and on a summery day I put on my summer playlist which is a mix of Latin, EDM, and old Europop
... Playing? Injustice 2 and Mortal Kombat
... Working on (job-wise and/or leisure-wise)? Getting my shit back together: going back to preparing to open up my own business, getting back on track with my fitness journey by starting Caroline Girvan's EPIC workout series next week and by sorting out the fridge this week, and also going to try to survive assembling a drawer from IKEA today
... Looking forward to? Starting the EPIC series!
... Worried/concerned/annoyed about? Whether it will rain the whole time we will be on our long awaited cottage vacation next week (first time I'm properly leaving the city in nearly a year and y heart basically beats for travel)

What were your last three LJ entries about and when did you post them?
July 27: updating about July 19th plus complaining about our mess of a building owner
July 23: recollection of July 18th in which I worked on Sunday and then accidentally got blackout drunk...
July 21: talking about how my workplace has us standing and otherwise on out feet the entire duration of the work shift apart from coffee breaks

Anything else? I am trying out updating in a daily diary format this year, so some entries may come off more boring and short than others, and I may go off on a rant sometimes, but I'm also having fun especially with keeping track of my workouts and daily meals (I seem to be on a very dedicated pizza diet lately). All posts also contain some photos as I like to snap photos of just about everything. I'm also a mom to two cats but sadly am not currently living with either of them...

Sounds like interesting content to me. Adding you to see if it’s a fit! (My posts are f-locked so this will let you decide.)

Everything you're currently watching I am too, haha. What are you thinking about Supergirl at the moment?

Mortal Kombat is a great game, what platform do you play on?

What do you want to open your own business up in?

I hope you enjoy your vacation!

So far I'm not super into the last season of Supergirl, but I'm not far into it yet, so hopefully it gets better. What's been your opinion of it?

I play it on Xbox!

I'm hoping to switch from freelancing in content creation to opening up a company that offers such services.

And thank you!

I haven't really gotten on with the storyline after season 3, if I'm being honest, haha.

Oh that sounds really cool!

I too use my journal as kind of a daily diary to remember the things of which go on in my life. More often than not they're followed by pictures (if they're not, I usually do a bulk photo post!)

My great-grandparents actually came over to the U.S. from Finland and I've always wanted to visit. My grandfather used to visit Hersinki a lot prior to his passing (many decades ago).

Want to give being friends a try?

Hey there! Absolutely! I've added you back now. That's such an interesting anecdote of your ancestry!

What kind of business are you looking to start? I own a cafe, and we're in between locations right now so as we get closer to opening the new location, I'll definitely be talking about a lot of the ups and downs of business ownership. Would you like to be friends?

Owning a cafe sounds like such an awesome thing! I once dreamed of opening up a sort of a cat cafe, but I doubt I'll ever have the finances for that... I'm simply trying to switch from being a freelance content creator to owning a content creating business officially :P And sure, adding you back now! Here is a quick introduction I made to the new friends I made off of this friendzy!

I've been to cat cafes before, and they're super cute :) But doing a transition like that sounds much more doable! Checking out your intro now :)
