*sigh* I've tried to avoid this thread but can't resist anymore...must...speak...about...ME! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
==============
Name (that you go by): Annunfuiniel but Annun is easier to remember/spel so you can go with that. I think my real name would be impossible for most of you to pronounce so let's just forget it.
Age: 22 in *counts with fingers...and with toes* 18 days!
Occupation: university student
Future Aspirations: Professionally? At the moment I'd say to become a historian.
Goal in life: To never stop wondering.
Short term goals: Graduate (that looks like a long term goal at the moment though *sigh*), write a post worth reading in the Books forum...
Passion: Tolkien (his writings that is [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img])
Hobbies: reading, walks with my dog, Barrow-Downs; I'd love to start taking dancing lessons or learn eastern combat arts
Famous for (okay this is where you get to brag about yourself): Well, being (too?) kind, always ready to help. And back in senior high (and earlier) I was known as the smart girl... How boring is that? [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
Fave book: Apart from the obvious (Tolkien) I love a certain Finnish writer, Kaari Utrio. She writes great historical novels.
Fave movie: Way too many to be listed here.
Fave sport: To do: swimming, tennis (I can't really play it but it's fun!), walking. To watch: Ice-hockey! (whose going to be the next World Champion?? Why Finland of course!!), ski-jumping, F1, athletics
Fave store: Have non really...
Fave music: All except the "heaviest" stuff, what ever comes from the radio; classical is very relaxing
What you can't stand: incompetence (I suffer from it myself), racism, fights, memory blocks (they make me crazy!!!), spiders and other such greepy creatures
What you plain dislike: houseworks, bills, being a poor student, papers that I should be doing right when there's million other things to do
Who you admire: My parents and my siblings(3), especially my brother who's 20, is married, has two beautiful kids (they are the light of my life!) and a decent job! Tolkien
What you most love to do: Sit on the dock by our small lake on a late-summer night after hard day of work on the fields when mist rises and the air is still; or wander in the forests in autumn rain; or sit inside in a cozy couch reading a good book or just daydream when its -30 degrees (Celsius) outside...
Your self-confessed flaws: Too many, too many indeed. Above mentioned incompetence, lack of self-confidence, daydreaming, inability to do my chores in time etc. etc.
What intrigues/fascinates you: Stars and space, earths endogenous processes, HISTORY, human...
What scares you: Inexplicable malevolence, war, helplesness
Quotation to live by:It is necessary to try to surpass oneself always;
this occupation ought to last as long as life.
Queen Christina, of Sweden, 1629-1689
