About me~
You know the feeling when someone from your friend list writes about his/her life and suddenly you stop to wonder that when he/she has changed job or started to date that guy..? Probably some information has lost it's way while trying to reach you, but you are actually too embarrassed to ask more detailed information.
Copy this to your LJ/blog/whatever and change the answers to match you. The more detailed answer you can give, the better you'll get me (and others) back to the map!
1. Name: Merja. Pretty traditional Finnish name. There has been times that I haven't liked my name at all, but most of the time I have loved it. I have asked from my parents that why I got this name, but I haven't got the proper answer.
2. Age: 24, soon to be 25. It's strange to think that I'm already this "old". I remember it like yesterday when I turned 18. But it has been already almost 7 years. And lot has happened after that.
3. Current location: Oulu. My hometown. The town where I was born. I love this town. Always have, though there was that time when I couldn't even stand big cities with population more than 50k. I was pretty glad when I moved back to Oulu. It was like I got part of myself back.
4. Occupation: Unemployed at the moment but soon to be student in tourism industry. Ever since I moved back to Oulu I've been trying to get a job, but with bad luck. Few months ago (in January actually) I decided that I wanna get new occupation, to go to study something new. So I sent some applications to different schools and 5th of August I'm gonna start studying tourism industry.
5. Partner: Don't have at the moment. I don't even know do I want one. Of course it'd be nice to find someone to huggle and snuggle and all that, but.. Oh, well. I'm happy as a single too.
6. Kids: Someday maybe. If not biological, then I'm gonna adopt. 1 or 2 could be nice, but no more. Boy or girl, doesn't matter. I have already thought some names for both, but.. Can't be sure if I give those names or not. Maybe I have some other names in my mind when it's time to choose the name.
7. Siblings: One sister, 6 years older than me. When we were still both living at home we had somekind of fight almost daily. When we finally both moved away from home our relationship got much better. And nowadays we don't even fight. She's very important person in my life.
8. Pets: Don't have any. I had 2 cats in Hamina but I had to leave them there when I moved away. I'd like to have a cat or two, but since I live with my parents I can't have. I'm not sure about my mom but my dad is pretty allergic to cats. So as long as I live with my parents, I just gotta dream about cats.
9. What are the most important things in your life now? Mention 3 - 5 things.
1. Friends. Those who are ready when I need them. Those who listen if I have problems. Those who give joy to my life.
2. Music. I gotta have music with me everywhere I go. I can't be without it. I gotta know that I can start listen music when I want. Music is therapy to me.
3. Books. Sometimes it's just nice to relax by reading a good book. Or if this real world is too hard at that moment, vanishing to some fantasy world..
4. My nephew. He's so important to me. When I first time saw him, he stole my heart. And every time we see, I wanna be with him as much as possible.
10. Why are you studying? I'm studying because I want to have new occupation. I'm studying because of me. Yeah, I'm selfish. I know it. xP
11. Parents: Mum and dad. They've been very important for me. Of course we have had some problems but don't we all have problems with parents. My mum is a saleswoman @ Nissen. She's been working there always. It's her first and final place to work. She still has few years to go before she can retire. My dad has been now unemployed for a year and half, about, but he's been working in storages. He's not retired yet and he's trying to find a job, but with no luck.
12. Closest friend(s): Mika. He has helped me a lot. And he knows it. Hopefully. He's the closest and dearest friend. But I have many other good friends too. Without them, I don't know where I'd be now. They are so important part of my life. Always has, always will.
13. Do you drink/smoke?: I don't smoke. Never have, never will. But I can drink sometimes. I ain't heavy drinker, but beer tastes good sometimes. And also some stronger alcohol too. I was without alcohol for few years and last time I had any alcohol was few months back and I don't know when I'll drink again.
14. Piercings/tattoos: I had lip piercing but I took it away. I had it only for few months. But I've been thinking of getting new piercing. Tongue could be nice. At least kissing someone who has tongue piercing is nice. But tattoos. I have 3. First one I got as my 18th birthday present from myself. It's spikey tribal on my left upper arm. Second one I got two years later. Rune of protection on my right shoulder. And my newest baby is just 4 months. Morpho/Poets of the Fall logo on my upper back/neck area. And I want more!
