Me and my lovely bass Nikki
So Hi. My name is Simo and I live in Helsinki Finland. I'm 19 years old. As you can probably tell by the picture I'm a bit of a musician. I play bass and guitar. Music is one of the most important things in my life and I don't think I would still be alive if I hadn't picked up a guitar when I was nine. Of course back then I didn't really practice. I took lessons but when I got home, I wouldn't even touch the thing. Because of this I believe I truly started playing guitar at around 12-13. I started playing bass when I was 17 and once I became the bassist of my band I found out much I liked it. I'll probably tell more about my musical background and stuff like that in a later post.
I've always been considered smart by most, but I never got good grades. I was a curious kid and it stuck on, so now I know a lot of random facts (For example, Titanic the movie cost almost three times as much to make as Titanic the ship), but I can't really do anything with them. But still, I'm interested in science, history, culture and pretty much everything you can imagine, except politics.
Currently I live with my mother. I also have a brother who's 1,5 years older than me. He just moved out, so for now it's just us two, and my girlfriend Nina. She's here a lot nowadays (I think last week she only spent two nights home) so I guess you could say she lives here too.
Nina and me, the day I graduated from high school (which explains my hat)
Me and Nina have been together for 5 months on the 12th. That time has been the best of my life so far. She truly makes me happy and I love her for it. There have been times, when I thought I couldn't keep going but she kept my sanity with me and I'm grateful every day that I'm lucky enough to have her in my life. Honey, I know you'll read this sooner or later and all I'll anymore is thank you so much, for being with me.
Ok now I think I've run out of stuff to write about. Music, smartassnes (Is that even a word? Well it is now) and Nina. That's pretty much my life right now. I have a job, but to explain that situation will pretty much take an entire post on it self (since I presume not all of the readers are Finnish and don't understand our military system) so yeah, that's about it. I think I'll try to post here around once a week but no promises.
