Some facts about me... hard to tell. What's the difference between fact and fiction?-)

Well... I was born in Turku in the middle of the summer of 1978. I grew up in Turku and when I was about four years old we (mom + dad + me) moved to Raisio. Years passed and I grew older. In the beginning of 1985 mom and dad told me great news (at least I thought so then) - my little brother had been cooking up for long enough and he was going to make his debute!

Summer went by and I had my seventh birthday. Seven years.. wow. The Magical Age in Finland - little kids start their long journey on the path of education. So did I. Six years in grade school and after that three years in junior high. Those three years were maybe the wildest. And boy, they were strangest too. All those little girls got their first curves and weird bumps here and there, little boys had problems with their voice.. you know how it goes up and down, high and low?-) Fortunately there were always some pre-historic demented teachers to tell us what was going on. Phew! What would've happened without them?

After those three weird years of human maturation most of us at the same age around Finland chose between high school and vocational school. Some went out to work, some continued to tenth grade i.e. fourth year in junior high and the rest chose other schools or just did nothing. 'I chose something else. I chose life.' No, just kidding. I chose high school. It took three years and then we had our matriculation exam. The lucky ones who got through graduated, got their student caps and diplomas and were called 'High School Graduates'. That was in the morning. During that day we were more or less called 'drunk' - a great party. It was! I was told so..if only I could remember.. :)

The summer continued being wild and funny.

After the summer I was more or less busy doing nothing. The winter passed without any spectacular highlights. Early in the spring my friend got his drivers license and the next summer went mostly on the road. Fall came and I suddenly found myself studying ADP at the Turku Vocational Institute. Here I am. And will be till summer 2000. After that - who knows. I don't. Later on spring 1999 I moved to Turku with my girlfriend.

I'll update this 'story' every now and then and if something happens.
