I can be summed up in a few words, I'm Finnish, I'm a Capricorn and I love all things ridiculous.
If you don't know that I'm of Finnish descent, then you obviously don't know me. I'm proud of this, almost to a fault. Pride, stoicness and stubbornness are typical Finnish traits. Both my parents were born in Finland and while I was born here in good ole Michigan, my parents only spoke Finnish to me and my sisters when we were young so it's like we have our own secret language- I mean seriously, how many other people do you know who speak Finnish?
As a Capricorn, I'm an earth sign and am really into my career. I'm sure I talk about it way too much- but how can you not love stomping around in the mud or investigating creepy old buildings? I love traveling but never seem to travel for pleasure nearly enough. In my apartment, I have over 14 plants in my living room that I talk to everyday. If I could do anything right this second, I'd want to be out walking in the woods, down some slightly over grown path leading to some ruins of an old farm house. Something secretive that I feel privileged in finding.
Ridiculous! I love to laugh and I love stories. Unlike most Finns, I'm very open and expressive and you usually know what I'm thinking. I love listening and asking questions almost as much as I love talking. In fact, I'm known in my group of friends, as the girl who asks a lot of questions. The more absurd, the more chaotic, the better. I love experiencing new things, tasting new foods, just for the novelty of it. Those usually make for good stories around the water cooler.... I'm constantly shocking and amusing my co-workers. Even if its just renaming the conference room the War Room. Or wearing my hard-hat to safety goggles because "safety is never an accident".
