Where were you when...?

There are several defining moments in everyone's lives. Some of them are private, some we share with our own country and some with the whole world.

My parents generation had the Moonlanding and Kennedy's murder. My generation recalls fondly, where they were when

Finland won the ice hockey world championships in 1995 (back home, I was sick).

Diana, Princess of Wales died(back home, it was early in a Sunday morning).

Planes hit the World Trade Centre twin towers in 2001 (during the first hit I was at bank, I heard about it on special news broadcast when I got back home).

And now there's another, important milestone to add to the collection:

Where were you when Lordi and Hard Rock Hallelujah won the Eurovision Song Contest, Finland's very first ESC victory in May 20, 2006? (I was at home, cheering, jumping, screaming and singing along every step of the contest!)

These moments make life matter. Can't wait to add more personal, private ones into the collection. =)
