Googoo ga chuu!

Out of my to-do list I've done all but one after this, so I can be almost satisfied for a change.

This is the Who Is This Bitch, Anyway? -post. Have you been hanging around my journal for weeks and still have no idea who I am? Got an unhealthy curiousity? Welcome to the club. Let's sit down, have a little rum and chat.



The basics: I'm 23 (birthday coming up soon!), married with two kids. My husband is a teacher in polytechnic, I am studying environmental and soil chemistry. In Finland that means a 5-year Masters degree, I'm on year 4. My kids are JYF (Junior Yaoi Fan, 8 years, second grade, her father is a man I call Mr. Nice Guy) and GL (Goldie Locks, 3 years, has no sense of pain).

I graduated high school with a GPA of 9.8/10.0, and wrote 4 laudaturs (A) and one magna cum laude (B-). I've never had to work for my grades, so going into university was a big shock. I'm still trying to recover, and it's been 6 years now. I wasted one year in engineering, got nothing done but found out my true calling, sorta, professionally, so it wasn't completely in vain. I also took one year off to be with the kids after nearly exhausting myself out juggling studies, daycare schedules and post-partum depression.

Speaking of depression, I've gone through that twice now, and they were as different as night and day. I don't like wallowing in that subject, so you'll hardly hear from that again.

TMI time: I started menstruating at 9 years. I'm bisexual. I'm obsessed with all things sexual, and I've been this way as long as I can remember. And I remember when I was 2 years old, so. I like to call my particular brand of deviancy "brainsexual", which would explain why I develop a thing for teachers so often. I've had breast reduction surgery about 7 years ago.

I'm short, only 5ft (or that's what the online converter said for 153cm). I haven't grown an inch since I was 12. I take twisted pleasure fitting into blouses I wore back then. Soon I'll be sharing my wardrobe with JYF.

What's my poison? Well, I do enjoy my dry cider and the occasional shot of vodka (Koskenkorva rules), sake or whiskey. I'm crazy for smoky drunken nights at the karaoke joint with my oldest friend, but those happen less than once a month. Usually I'm homebound, and I don't really mind that. I am a casual smoker, but don't tell anyone.

I am a very typical Libra. Always hovering between the extremes. I am chronically unable to take only one viewpoint and sticking to it. It's always about seeing multiple POV's, and by this age I've pretty much given up on stressing over it, instead I'm embracing my dialectic nature. Hurrah paradoxes! Nature of light, waves or particles? Both! Rock on, light \m/

I enjoy debates, and sometimes when I feel brave enough, I might even create and/or jump in on them. But mostly, I'm the spectator that throws sideline comments (whenever my mouth isn't full of popcorn).

In situations where others are shy, I take the lead. I'll play the fool if I have to, I take great pleasure in entertaining. Sometimes it feels like that's my only reason to be there, but as long as people are laughing, I don't think about it. Did I already mention how much of an attention whore I am? *grin* On the other hand, I love listening to others, I find people and the variations of everything fascinating.

My sense of humour can be pitch black, but I try to reign that in and so I just abuse self-deprecation and sarcasm. Look out for that; don't take anything I say about myself too seriously. In fact, don't take anything I say at all too seriously.

Fandom history from age 10 onward:
The Beatles
Dempsey&Makepeace (like, totally. I was 12.)
McGyuver (OMG hott hott geekyaction!)
X-Files
Xena (my first slash couple *wipes teardrop*)
Final Fantasy (7-10)
YnM

The rest were not obsession-worthy, so I dropped them. For these fandoms I've read fic, books, gathered information and other such things. The rest I've just been diggin'. I'm very loyal in my affections, I still like every band, show etc I've ever fangirled. Kyou Kara Maou is quickly becoming my newest object of squeeing, if they'd just get the damn thing out already! *bites nails*


I'm stopping here, since I can't think of anything important anymore. You're always free to ask away, I don't mind, and I won't think you're a nosy little person. You can't offend me with honest questions. Hey, the chances of me getting offended are pretty slim anyway, so just cough it up and I'll give you as much random info you ever wanted. Just don't dare me to do something outrageous. I'm a sucker for dares.
