Here we go!

My blog is now officially opened! I hope to use this as a medium for my thoughts on life, the universe and everything. But that can wait a while, because I think it's only polite to introduce myself first.

I'm a 24-year old University student who is hoping to graduate at Autumn 2006. Expect a lot of graduation anxiety. I'm single and live on my own in a lovely one-room appartment, which I call home. I have three plants, who are named Raimo, Tyyne and Alli. I also have a severe book-obsession, which might develop into financial problems in the future. Stay tuned...

I'm a Christian and Jesus is the most important person in my life. I'm hoping that this blog will also serve as a tool for discovery and growth. The title of this blog, looking for a bridge, refers to a poem I wrote when I was 17 (Oh, those innocent times!). I'm not going to translate the poem, but the point is that life is often like a dark forrest where you can't see very far. And when you're travelling fast your only option is to believe that there is a bridge over the ravine. Even if you can't see it right now. This is something I've been thinking about a lot lately so prepare yourselves for some serious philosophical ponderings.

I was inspired to start this blog by a good friend, Karoliina. Below is a picture with myself with the glasses, my friend Saara with the dots and Karoliina in the front. Thank you, dear, for always being as you are:)

And in order to introduce myself better: a picture from my house-warming party in August. I'm on the left and next to me is Eeva. And I'm not really that pale, it's all Eeva's fault for sitting next to me with that perfect tan of hers.

So here it is. My blog now exists as one of the many. We'll see what happens next.
