About Me

I am a human geography student from Finland. I love all sciences from social sciences to gender studies to history to linguistics to chemistry, physics, math and all that good stuff.

Apart from school, I like to make things with my hands. I knit, I spin. I like mail art, especially decos. Altered books and journals are lovely too. I also make simple jewellery.

I have a dry&twisted&sarcastic sense of humour and I tell a lot of bad jokes. I sing all the time. I love spending time reading or chatting at coffee shops. I also love tea, especially white. I am bit of a geek and I'm interested in almost everything.

Favorite Movies

The Big Lebowski, Little Miss Sunshine, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Princess Bride, The Usual Suspects, Fight Club, Inglourious Basterds, Trainspotting, anything by the Coen brothers, Wallace&Gromit

Favorite Music

Harvey Danger, Cold War Kids, Mountain Goats, Tori Amos, Alanis Morissette, NIN, Johnny Cash, Robbie Williams

Favorite Television

Monk, Frasier, Futurama, Psych, Freaks&Geeks, Modern Family, Ashes to Ashes, In Treatment, Peep Show, NYPD Blue, Malcolm in the Middle, Midsomer Murders, Bones, Criminal Minds, Glee

Favorite Books

Robin Hobb, J.M.Coetzee, Agatha Christie and I love poetry more than anything.

As for science books old medical/psychology books, history (social history, Finnish history, WW2, nationalism in different cultures etc.), most things published on my field, especially health geography ... So many things.

Favorite Crafts

knitting, mail art, decos, jewellery, spinning, watercolours, calligraphy

Likes&dislikes

Likes:

-bright colours and sparkly things: rainbows, neon colours, also muted light colours and shades of grey. I especially love green, purple and yellow.

-odd found objects and other random bits: medical, psychiatric, anatomy, chemistry, architecture, maps etc. type of ephemera, broken jewellery, small metallic objects

-alphabet stickers, stamps, rub-ons, ink pads, random pens

-nail polish, hand/nail cream/oil, soaps&scrubs, perfume (light scents: mint, citrus, bergamot, tea, fruits&berries)

-handdrawn/painted/made things, recommendations on music/books/films

-seals, ducks, horses, dogs, cats, dragonflies, seahorses, sheep, goats.. well all animals:)

-chocolate and tea (white&green preferred but black is good too. Berry and fruity flavours. I don't like spicy tea.)

Dislikes: - heavily scented things, overly cutesy stuff, eg. Diddl, Winnie the Pooh, pics of babies, Kawaii etc.

I like a lot of things and it is difficult to make a list. I am not expecting anyone to follow this list to a letter, it's more just something to use for inspiration if you wish.

Comment: Valeria, This was such a special swap. Thank you so much for your honesty and rants. I enjoyed reading them-each and every single one. It's funny how close some of ours were :) I hope 2011 brings lots of great things your way! Ginny
Response: Thank you, it was quite liberating to rant because they were things one tends to just bottle up and think of alone. I hope all the best for your 2011 as well:)

Yeah...a lot of times, LOL! I'm from Portland, OR and they're from Seattle, WA (I lived there for awhile too), which is about 3 hours away. I'm sorry!!! They were amazing, ha ha.
