An interview with Annamariah:
*Why are we doing this interview thing?*
Because I'm getting older again.
*Are you sure you want to do this?*
Of course.
*Who killed Roger Rabbit?*
I have no idea.
*Whose footprints would you find in the fridge?*
If someone has been walking there, it must be my flatmate, since I would never do such a thing myself.
*So, how old are you?*
22 now. I still don't feel like an adult, even though I've been of age for four whole years.
*If you had a personal theme song what would it be?*
I've often thought about this one, but I just can't decide which one song would be most "me".
*Are you male or female? *
A female, which should be obvious.
*What makes you keep coming back?*
People and conversations, of course.
*Are you happy with the way things are here?*
On LitNet? Sure.
*Which countries have you visited?*
I've travelled by bus through Sweden to Denmark, visited Saaremaa in Estonia and last autumn I finally got to visit London, Great Britain.
*Which languages do you speak?*
Finnish, of course, English, Swedish and some Russian.
*How do you like your home town?*
I love Helsinki.
*If you could live somewhere different, where would it be and why?*
I like it here in Helsinki, but my apartment is far from perfect.
*Do you have any pets?*
No, I'm allergic to pretty much everything.
*What makes you happy?*
Friends and good books make me feel less miserable.
*What is mankind's biggest achievement, and its greatest downfall?*
People?
*Do you feel comfortable in your walk with God/atheism? *
Yes. (I'm a Christian.)
*Which actor should play you in a movie based on your life?*
I don't know any actor who looks like me. Besides, my life is way too boring to be adapted into a movie.
*Given the option, what animal would you choose to be?*
I think it would be cool to be able to fly. Some bird, then, but not a tiny one.
*What makes you feel great about yourself?*
I don't feel very great about myself. But I felt pretty damn good when I returned my Bachelor's Thesis, it was a huge load off my shoulders.
*How did you meet your significant other?*
I didn't.
*Who inspires you most?*
I can't name any person I get inspiration from.
*What are you naturally good at? (Skills, abilities, gifts etc.)*
I'm good with languages and music. I sing and play the piano, and I'm not bad at drawing, knitting, crocheting or sewing either. I have a good memory, which has helped me with my studies. I'm good with children too, and I can survive on the wild
*What is the one thing you must do before you die?*
To live.
*If you had to teach something, what would you teach?*
English, probably. (English as a second language in a Finnish school, that is. I could imagine teaching translation at the university too.)
*What would you regret not fully doing, being or having in your life?*
I'll be really disappointed if I will one day look back to these days and think it was the best time of my life.
*What method do you cherish above all others, as means to improving your life?*
My meds? Though they're not working like they should... But really, if there is one thing that I think would make me happier, it would be getting healthy. I can't stand my skin.
*What one thing would you NEED to have on a deserted island if you didn't have to worry over food and water? *
A friend.
]
*If you were a king/queen for a day, what would you do?*
Just a day? I wouldn't dare to do anything special in fear of getting punished the next day
*What song is in your head at the moment?*
Tuuli kulkee by The Rain, which I'm listening to at the moment.
*Which book are you reading at the moment?*
The Passion of Artemisia by Susan Vreeland and Pat of Silver Bush by L. M. Montgomery.
*What is your favourite quote?*
I can't decide, there are too many.
*Which nickname would you pick if you could change your present one?*
I'm quite happy with Annamariah.

I like this one so much I stole it from The Comedian
Perhaps I should celebrate my birthday by returning it...

Anyone for coffee, no boys allowed
.

At night.

My pajamas.
*Favorite poem?*
Some song lyrics probably.
*First novel you remember reading on your own?*
I can't remember which one was the first one. What counts as a novel anyway?

Most of the novels I read tell about the 19th century.

Top Gear, House M.D., Heroes, Spooks, Survivor, America's Next Top Model, Gilmore Girls

"Thank you, bye bye" to the last customer of the day probably.
*Last person you hugged/kissed?*
My little brother.
*What do you do (for a living) to be able to keep your LitNet addiction going? And are you happy with your chosen profession?*
At the moment I work at a call centre looking up contact information for people and businesses and answering all the strange questions the customers ask. It's definitely not a dream job, but not too bad for a summer job. Once the school starts again I'll probably start working part-time at libraries again, which is a much nicer job.
*What question would you like to ask yourself?*
Why aren't you doing anything useful?
*What would you like to be if you could change your profession?*
In two years I'll hopefully become a translator.
*Which one of the seven dwarves are you and why?*
Sleepy or Sneezy. I'm always tired and have lots of allergies.
*What is your most outstanding feature?*
The eczema, I guess. When my skin is better, I'd say my eyes.
*If you could change one thing about the way you look, what would that be?*
My skin, definitely.
*Which book do you wish you had written?*
Jane Eyre, or The Blue Castle.
*What should you be doing at the moment instead of answering these questions?*
Cleaning, sleeping, something.

One during which I'm not itching.
*Favorite movie?*
The Phantom of the Opera (Andrew Lloyd Webber's version), Pride and Prejudice.
*Last movie you watched?
Wimbledon.
*Favorite painting?*
Something by Albert Edelfelt, perhaps Queen Blanca.
*Wonderful Superman or depressing Batman?*
Batman.
*Something you want to forget but you never can?*
Several humiliating moments.
*If you could send one thing to the Room 101, one would that be?*
All the stupid customers.
*Are you mostly happy with life or are you still in pursuit?*
Mostly I'm not happy.
*What type of Faerie would you like to be and why?*
Flying type.
*One final word of wisdom for LitNet users?*
I'm hardly wise enough to instruct others.
*What question would you like to ask to the person to be interview after you?
What was the best thing that happened to you during this
All Best Wishes to One of All-Time Best Persons!!
Apparently, I beat Pensive this year
