Who am I then, you might ask?
Well, Iīll tell you. My name is Mia Svensson. I was born in 1979, and I live in Skurup, which lies in the south of Sweden. My family are my parents - Karin (1951-2001) and Göran, my brother Fredrik (who is six years older than me) who has a wife named Mia, a son named Johan and a girl named Mathilda. They are true rascal! Then there is of course a
ll the relatives, who on my fathers side accounts for about 100 people or more. I have a dog too, he is a Jack Russell named Mulle, and he is pretty round around the tummy! As far as I know, he is the heftiest dog Iīve ever seen so far. Mulle is my second dog. My first one was a Shi Tzu, named Totzie. She was calm and quiet, the total opp
osite of what Mulle is! She died of an acute uterus-inflammation, so if you have bitch, and donīt want puppies, you sterilise her. Itīs for her own good, and minimizes the risk. Over the years, I have learned that I have truely gotten the Ying and Yang of the canine world. Totzie was female, calm, was afraid of heights and loved going fast, didn't have to many teeth and was never sick until that day she died. Mulle on the other hand, is male, full of energi (Ok, not so much now that he is an old fart!), Has no problem what so ever to heights (he would jump of a trailertruck if I didn't stop him), doesn't like speed, has all and very strong teeth and has been to the vet on numerous occasions for all sorts of things, including three operations (right eye, castration & bloodear).
My interests then? Well, that I have many!
I read a lot, mostly horror, fantasy and some sci-fi. I sew and craft even more. Iīm on a list on the web named FOCD (Friends Of Cloth Dolls) who shares ideas, hints ans invites you in to see their webpages, but formost we trade dolls with each other. It might sound rediculas, a grownup playing with dolls, but these are wonderful creations my newfound friends does, pure work of art! I also belong to Den of Angels, a forum for BJD-lovers (thats stands for Ball Joint Dolls), Miniature knitting and Crochet and Threadanimals, both Yahoo-groups.
What else? I play around with FIMO, which is a plastic-clay you burn in the oven. With that I make dolls, trolls, miniatures, frame-decorations and much more. I also draw alot, even if itīs mostly sketches and scribbles now days. I like languages, and have planned to learn as many as I can. Right now I can speak swedish, english and I can count in german. In the future I hope to learn more, and hopefully I can get a job that will allow me to use my skills in an effective way!
What I canīt live without: - My family
- My dog
- Books!
- pencils and paper
- The TV (I know, horrible isnīt it?)
- Music
- My sight and my hands.
