The past decade
This is the traditional questionnaire, that I have filled out at the end of each year. This time, it's about the past decade.
1.What did you do in this decade that you'd never done before?
-Many things, went to university, lived alone, lived with a boyfriend, lived alone...
2. Did you keep your new year's resolutions, and will you make more for next decade?
-I never make any.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
-Lala, twice, and several cousins also procreated.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
-My maternal grandmother.
5. What countries did you visit?
-Estonia, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium, UK, France, Hungary, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Croatia, Serbia, Japan, India, Australia, China, USA and Mexico. I think that's all. Oh yeah, and Prague airport in Czech Republic, plus I drove a bus through Slovenia, and slept through the whole ride. Do they count?
6. What would you like to have in 2010s that you lacked in 2000s?
-A career.
7. What date from 2000s will remain etched upon your memory?
-Well, maybe 8.10.2005, when I met Mika.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the decade?
-Getting into university twice.
9. What was your biggest failure?
-Not graduating from the said uni.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
-Yes. The most serious ones, ie. those that needed hospital care, were appendicitis and kampylo bachteria.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
-There are so many things to choose from, but I'll say my trip to Madrid in 2003. It was the first time I travelled alone, I had a blast, and I think it encouraged me to travel more.
12. Whose behaviour merited celebration?
-Dad has been an enormous support through the whole decade.
13. Whose behaviour made you appalled and depressed?
-There were few people.
14. Where did most of your money go?
-If you don't count the essentials (food and living), then definitely travelling!

-University life, travelling, football, cycling, skiing.
16. What song will always remind you of 2000s?
-Ikuisen teekkarin laulu.
17. Compared to this time last decade, are you
i. happier or sadder?
-Close call. I am more at ease with myself, but on the other hand, life was more carefree when I was 15. I say happier, just because I'm happy that I am not 15 anymore.
ii. thinner or fatter?
-Fatter.
iii. richer or poorer?
-I have more money, but now I have to pay for everything myself, whereas 10 years ago dad payed for everything, since I had no income.
18. What do you wish you'd done more of?
-Studied.
19. What do you wish you'd done less of?
