1. What’s a question you’re afraid to ask? To whom? -There are probably many of them. I’d like to ask a certain person what they think of me, I have some questions I’d like to ask my roommate, etc. I think everyone has loads of these.
2. What’s something you hide about your personality? -Probably how sad I can get, and also how much I want to feel loved. I like spending time alone and I’m very independent, but I think people are quick to categorize me as a happy single woman just because of those things. I’d much rather be dating someone than be lonely tbh.
3. What’s something other people think about you that you don’t agree with? -Probably that I’m too feisty and emotional sometimes. I think I show things that should be shown. There’s so much that I still hide, I think everyone does.
4. How do you deal with criticism? -I don’t get loads of criticism. Constructive critisism is always good, for example with music I am always willing to listen and learn. About looks I don’t believe there’s ever an excuse to criticize anyone, so that I don’t take lightly.
5. What’s the sweetest thing anyone’s ever done for you? -Given me a rose when I was watching him dance a tango at his prom. Also cooking for me when he absolutely did not know how to.
6. What’s the sweetest thing you’ve ever done for someone? -Small gifts and cute notes, sounds so stupid but I really feel it’s the little things that count in life. Things that make you happy in the moment.
7. What’s something sweet you’d like someone to do for you? -Just some relationship things, cooking for me is always a good thing. Also just small surprises in general. Not even only in relationships. Once one of my best friends just bought me a pair of earrings for no specific reason, just to make me smile.
8. Describe your favourite texture. -My gym pants are so thin so they feel great on the body, yet they’re not too cold. Yogapant material…
9. Trigger warning: Which national or global tragedy were you closest to and how did it affect you? -Hmm I don’t know which events classify as this. We’ve had a few schoolshootings here in Finland, which is terrible. More recently the Paris terrorattacks hit close to home for me since I’ve been there 1,5 years ago and just had the most amazing time there. It was a drastic change for the city and how we see it for sure.
10. Post a photo/draw a picture/write a poem (pick one) of a moment of personal significance. -I might do this in a whole nother post but not here…
11. Which fictional character would you most like to have lunch with and why? -I’d love to have lunch with Hazel from The Fault In Our Stars because I’d love to hear how she’s doing later after the book/movie ends.
12. Who would you say is your “anti” role model? Someone who serves as a warning rather than an inspiration? -Probably many people who have commited suicide. It sounds horrible to say that, but the people they leave behind when they choose to go on their own, are the people who show me the selfish part of suicide. I would never do that to my family. That would ruin their lives more than anyone elses. And yes your death matters to people. (Just a disclaimer, I’m not depressed at the moment but at worse times this is a reminder).
13. What’s your least “politically correct” opinion? -I don’t feel like I have many. The world is becoming so much more open and affectionate towards different kinds of people, that I feel like my opinions are politically correct. However, I know quite a few people who find it strange that I’m for abortion, but would not consider it myself (unless I was raped).
14. What kind of underwear do you imagine Sherlock Holmes wears? -Tighty whities
15. What’s one of the most difficult things you’ve ever had to do? -Move on from my first love, get on good terms with my father. Those two stand out.
16. If you were an element on the Periodic Table, which would you be and why? -I feel like I should make some kind of science joke with my answer but I honetly don’t know what I’d even be.
17. What’s the most infuriating thing your parents (or caregiver) do? -Get mad when I’m sick. They’re concerned but they show it in the wrong way.
18. Which movie character do you most identify with and why? -No one really comes to mind. I’d like to answer this when I’ve lived some more…
19. You’re an Action Movie Hero. What’s your weapon of choice and the line you scream when defeating your arch enemy? -My weapon of choice would be a bow and arrow cause I’ve always wanted to learn to shoot with those. I don’t have a line, I would do everything sneakily.
20. What’s the silliest fan theory you’ve ever come up with? -Probably now when Taylor Swift was m.i.a with Calvin Harris a thought that crossed my mind (and quickly exited) was that she’s pregnant and they’re somewhere private thinking about a plan.
21. What did you think about before you fell asleep last night? -How hungover I was. I had the craziest saturday to sunday, partied until 3pm on sunday…
22. What’s the oddest term of endearment you’ve ever used or that someone’s used for you? -Poopoo, poop, boobie
23. What motivates you in life? -Love
24. What was something you used to enjoy, but was ruined for you? What’s the story behind that? -Pianomusic. My ex was an excellent pianoplayer. Well he still is. Always think of him when someone plays solo. Can’t say it has ruined it, but I really can’t hear piano without him crossing my mind.
25. How do you think you will fare when the Zombie Apocalypse arrives? -Interesting how this didn’t even say if, it just said when. Honestly I think I’d lock myself in my apartment and then just die when they get in.
26. Which mythological creature are you most like? Why? And if you could be any mythological creature, which would you want to be? Why? -I’m not good with mt mythological creatures. Maybe a unicorn because they’re coulourful personalities.
27. Write a brief story about an actual adventure you’ve had. – Again… Perhaps it’s own post? What do you guys think?
28. Describe one of the most awkward experiences of your life. -This could be a post too, but I will say I am the worst at talking behind someone’s back. I feel like they’re always standing behind me without me knowing.
29. What’s something that scares you about the future? -Everything… I’m not a fan of uncertainty
30. List 5 quirky things about yourself. -I’m a homebody, I hate hearing people brushing their teeth, I don’t like cheese, I love crosswordpuzzles and sudokus, I start christmas in september.
31. Describe your dream library. -My dreamlibraby is one that would have a store in it so I wouldn’t have to leave to but food, and it would have all the youtuberbooks and more selfhelpbooks.
32. What’s the weirdest item you’ve ever mourned? -Probably some kind of makeup that I’ve dropped on the ground.
33. If you could design an amusement park ride, what would it be like? -It would be a new haunted house. The one in Linnanmäki in Helsinki doesn’t get renewed often enough.
34. Do you have any “rules” about food? -I’m not a big sharer, and don’t make me try something I don’t want to try. Also boiled veggies are so disgusting. Have them fresh and raw or cooked in the oven, but don’t make them crappy mush.
35. What’s your opinion on age differences in relationships? -Depends on the gap and the ages. It gets more normal the older you get. I don’t mind other people’s agegaps but for me right now he can only be one year younger, and about 7 years older.
36. What’s something you want to do that you’d be embarrassed to tell other people about? -Try to lose loads of weight. I don’t wanna say so because I don’t want people watching and pressuring and being curious. Also I want to seem confident.
37. Describe a time/event in your life that you’re nostalgic for. -Basically almost my entire senior year of highschool.
38. How do you approach social situations? -I don’t really give them extra thought. They’re just situations. After them I usually need a bit of alonetime though.
39. What is your ideal bed? Why? -My bed is perfect. A bed that can fit two people but where we still aren’t able to have a huge gap between us. I want space but also intimacy.
Coming on Tuesday: favorite youtubechannels, and interior design inspiration. What would you like me to post about? Love you lots, xxx
