Introducing


Hello. My name is Rebecca and I live in Finland in a city called Tampere. I was born in 1992 and my birthday is on 27th of January. I have green eyes and since I was a little girl, I have always wanted red hair. I have a twin brother who is 45 minutes older than me. I'm vegan, I have three cats and some day I would love to have pet rats. I’m an animal lover but as people ask wheter someone is a cat person of a dog person I have to say that I’m very much a cat person. Their lifestyle suits better in my lifestyle.

My favorite colors are black and red (obviously) and white. I have glasses, but I don't like to use them in photos. I love to photograph everything I see and I love to be photographed by everyone else. I also like to write, draw, paint and sing. I used to draw and paint a lot but now it's kind of on hiatus for I had concertrated on writing. Altough I miss drawing but I need the time for it - usually about 2-5 hours after I start. Singing is like a personal thing I like to do when I’m alone...

I love and adore and live through movies and music. I always have my old MP3 (first ever still suffering through all after all these years) with me always, wherever I go. One thing I love the most is WATCHING MOVIES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT - That's my kind of drug.


BLOGGING
At first I didn't even know what blogging even meant and I felt simply stupid to Google it. It seemed that everyone else seemed to know what it was.

And this was basically the reason why it took so very long for me to start this. And at one point when I was younger blogging seemed like a new trend or something and EVERYONE seemed to do it. But I couldn't see myself keeping or even starting up a blog because everyone else did and because of that I "should" too and if that would have been my only motivating thing I would have had to FORCE myself to write some nonsense day after day after day and with each entry there’s at least ten pictures of my face and another ten of me standing, sitting and posing didn't seem to be my thing.

I don't know about the whole fashion and / or make-up thing for I'm really not that good doing all different makeups and reporting what the fuck I'm wearing this afternoon and also because this blogging thing is so new to me - who knows maybe I start to post something like that.
Still, I want to keep this casual enough and I will post photos, my art and maybe some vegan recipes and possibly DIY-ideas (if I EVER get that creative and talented) - though I'm not a photographer, artist or a chef.
BUT I tend to have too many ideas I would like to do but in the end I’m not doing a half of them for various reasons.

Something I am afraid is that in the end my blogging will be "I woke up. I ate breakfast. I had a boring day" – and I run out of things to write of and ideas in general. And that my blog posts won’t differ from tweeting or posting on Facebook. We will see...

... Now I'm not sure if this counts as an official start yet but at least something.

P.S. My English is still improving so if you mark any mistakes feel free to correct me – that's how we learn.

Let's get this blog started! (..?)

I have wanted to make a blog for quite some time now actually. So, this one night I made it, but after that found myself sitting on the computer staring at the screen, trying to figure out a name for it and I came out absolutely nothing. And every "bright" idea for a name was already taken (just my luck). But then after killing some time and my already non-existing brain cells, I figured out a name. The next step was modify its outfit something more to look at that just black blackness with not-yet-written posts. This just something to get started with, I will make it better in time. Promise.

Last night I was trying to make a decent header and just something on the background so there would be something to catch the eye - and what's better than stripes? It's still dark, but I like dark.

Now I just need to figure out what to write about. But as you see how much text (a lot of it pretty pointless) I can manage to write about so simple subject, for my idea was just to tell that this is my blog and say hello.

You are more than welcome to read my blog and feel free to comment or ask something if you feel to! :)

This english thing may frustrate someone at some point, but I decided to write in english because internet is global and english is spoken in so many countries and it's like me bumping into a blog which is French and if someone English-speaking bumps into my blog and if it's written in Finnish language, then for them, it's like French to me. I hope you know what I mean... Main points, 1. I'm not trying to prove I'm somehow better than someone else by writing in english and 2. there will be grammatical errors here and there (for sure), but don't let it ruin your day. <3


With love, tea and cyanide,
Rebecca
