    En ole juuri seurannut #sarasieppi'n uraa tai hänestä kirjoitettuja uutisia. Mutta hänen #elämäkerta'nsa kiinnosti, se millaista on olla #somevaikuttaja.

    #olikssullavieläjotain on hieno kirja – rehellinen ja hyvin yksityiskohtainen kertomus Saran elämästä, ihmettelin, miten tarkasti hän joitain asioita muistaa. Lapsena hän haaveili olevansa #misssuomi. Se ei ole helppo ura, sillä työmahdollisuudet ovat sen varassa, kiinnostatko ihmisiä (eli paljonko avaat elämääsi). Oli riipaisevaa lukea, miten hän menetti yksityisyytensä vain 19-vuotiaana😭 ja miten hänen luottamuksensa ihmisiin mureni erikoisen parisuhteen myötä.

    Moni nuori haaveilee vaikuttajan urasta. Toivon, että he tarttuvat kirjaan ja miettivät uudelleen. Onko se todella sitä, mitä he haluavat?

    Sara haaveilee pienistä asioista, auringonlaskuista ja tv-sarjojen katselusta rakkaan kanssa, upeista hetkistä, joita ei tarvitse ikuistaa kuviin.

    Toivon kaikkea hyvää Saralle! ♥️
    #kirjamastodon #kirjat
    I might be one of the few people in Finland who haven't followed #sarasieppi's career or news written about her. But I wanted to read her biography #olikssullavieläjotain.

    It's an amazing book, honest+very detailed story. She was dreaming about being #missfinland already as a kid. A career of a #misssuomi is not the easiest one, but tough work that requires a lot. And she has lost a lot too: her privacy (as 19yo😭), the trust in people, important people and partly her health too.

    Teens are dreaming about an #influencer career. I hope they read this to think again. Is this really what they want?

    A quote:

    "I no longer dream of being a millionaire. I rather dream of being happy and being able to enjoy life.
    I want to pause to admire a beautiful sunset, watch one more episode of my favorite show in the arms of someone I love. To forget my phone at home and live a wonderful moment without taking a single picture of it."

    Voi oikeistoänkyrä-raukkoja! Nyt on lyöty kova viikko eteen!

    Eilen yo. uutinen siitä, ettei #tanssiurheilu ssa & #kilpatanssi ssa ole enää sukupuolella merkitystä, eikä ole enää naisia tai miehiä, vaan viejiä ja seuraajia, ja tänään uutisoidaan, että #MissSuomi -semifinalissa on mukana transsukupuolinen kilpailija.

    #KaikkiMeni!

    (Ei, en klikannut juttua auki. Mediakäyttötottumuksiani tsennaavat tietävät varmastikin miksi).
