It's quite interesting how USA is not so populating the YWS anymore

When you look at your life, in a strange new room, maybe drowning soon, is this the start of it all?

Finland number 7? Haha. I'm doing pretty good, then ;)

Canada at number 3. Me like.

Can't say anything for Toronto since I don't live there, but Canada I can.

And Congrats to YWS for becoming international!

I came into this world wrinkled and ugly. And no matter how much I accumulate here, it's a short journey. I will go out of this world wrinkled and ugly. So I enjoy life.
