Ill Janne turned 20!
Hello hello!

I haven't written anything for a while...

I've been very busy with my B-day and all that...

Now I'm finally 20!
Yei!

I don't feel different at all.

My Roaring 20's party was a success. There were about 16 of my friends(their avecs included) present. We had lots of good food, some wine, glogia... I think that people even liked the show numbers: Adult version of "Fishing", "Draw victim outlines" and Pi?ata... but the most amazing number was Empa's dance performance! "You were fabulous, darling!" I was surprised by how many had dressed accordingly to the theme. Thank you for putting some effort into it!

For all the participators: Thank you!

It is always nice to see people enjoy themselves... Warms my heart.

I'm gonna put some photos here when I get them back from Anttila and have them scanned.

I played my first Necromunda ES-campaign game with my gang Black Guerrilla Family. It was against some Scavvies and I won(Burn scavvy! Burn!). I hope my win streak doesen't end too soon.

On saturday We were supposed to see Goldie play but he had cancelled the gig because of some health problems(cocaine anyone?!). We ended up seeing Cleaning Women which was great! Haven't seen them in a while. I love that brutal drum sound!

Aavikko and Messer Chups perform today: kakkoii!

Music tips:

Gonzalez: "Presidential suite"
Django Reinhardt
Kill Bill's soundtrack especially that one track by Tomoyasu Hotei.

Until next time!

see ya

Ill now 20 Janne

Bite me!
Hello all mellow cats!

Done testing...

Lemme see... First they put all these sensors all over my body. I even had to wear this wire hat and they injected some gel on my head... which is still stuck in my hair. Then they monitored me in a relaxed neutral state. After that the real test began: First was Tetris... 3 times 5 minutes 1. practice round 2. first real round with average difficulty 3. second round with harder difficulty. The next game was Super Monkey Ball. Third one was Monkey bowling and the last one was James Bond Night Fire. The gaming console used was Nintendo Game Cube.

How did I score? Not very good... I think I won't be the worst of all the testees but not the best either.

+ Now I'm 3 movie tickets richer:)

- that gel

By the way: I saw "Underworld". I was surprised by how good it was. Definitely one of the better movies of the genre. Vampires(dressed in latex and leather ofcourse!) fighting with Lycans(werewolves). Check it out!

See yall

Ill will Janne

Test Animal
Hello Hello!

I met Petteri yesterday. I haven't seen him in a while(1 year?). I originally met this guy at the civil sevice center in Lapinjarvi. He is a SW fanboy and plays rpg's too. He showed me his dwelling place in Munkkivuori.

What else...

Oh yeah!

I'm gonna participate in this scientific experiment, as a test person. It is about video games... I will play for 4 hours and they will monitor my heart rate, brain activity and the movements of my facial muscles. It means that I'll be covered in wires.
Now you are asking "why would anyone wanna do this?" My answer is simple: 1. it sounds interesting and 2. I'll get 3 movie tickets for doing this. This experiment will take place tomorrow so I'll tell you more then(If I can... I might have sworn secrecy by then).

see yall

Ill Janne

I finally got my pay check:)
Yeah that's right and it is almost gone now.

I bought a Nintendo Gamecube... It is so cool! I have Zelda, Mario and Soul Calibur.

I saw The Herbaliser 4 deck show yesterday. It was dope, even though they played some pop-hiphop too... I was there with Empa and Aleksi. We(Empa et moi) were supposed to catch a night bus from Hakaniemi, but the driver didn't let anyone in... It wasn't even full. So we ended up walking to Empa's place in Hermanni. I spent the night there... nice crib.

Now I'm playing Super Mario Sunshine at my friend's place(1 floor down from our apartment).

I saw Hannu's crib too. We watched japanese tv-commercials, music videos and also Delicatessen.

I envisioned some interesting entertainment for my b-day. It's top secret... well I'll tell you something: Blindfold and a fishing rod. Sounds crazy but actually it's pretty sane + funny.

see ya

My money-box is empty...
Jep ei oo fyrkkaa.

Vein tanaan verokorttini Ursaan ja mulle kerrottiin, etta saan rahaa ilmeisesti puolessa valissa kuuta. Alkaa tulla pahat viekkarit, ku en oo kayny levykaupassa pitkaan aikaan.

Jos nyt saan toita Ruotsista aloitan ne tossa Joulukuun alussa... Ei tuu kyl kauheesti kotia ikava... No ehka ihan pikku riikkisen.

Kavin tanaan katsomassa LXG:n. Ihan hupaisa leffa, mutta siina oli koko ajan sellainen fiilis, etta milloin taa oikeestaan alkaa? Suosittelen tutustumaan sarjakuvaan, jos ette sita jo ole tehneet... Aivan loistava! Klassikko-kamaa!

Ei tunnu yhtaan marraskuulta... mistakohan johtuu?

Kavin viime la(?) kaupungilla ja huomasin, etta kauppoihin on jo tullu kaikki joulu-tilpehoori(suklaakonvehteja yms). Jotenkin ahdistavaa, mutta toisaalta se tarkoittaa myos sita, etta kohta saa glogia ja pipareita:)

Kerhossa oli tanaan 3 kersaa. No ei ainakaan tarvii hankkia Tuuraajaa sit ku mahdollisesti lahden.

Aloitan huomenna pi?atan valmistuksen. Hain liisterinkin.

jep jep

Tikulla silmaan!
Hello hello!

Man, it sure was a long weekend... I was working at the Space 2003 fair(at kaapeli) here in HKI. 26 hours of work. The first day was easy because there weren't that many visitors. Saturday was very hectic and sunday... well I don't say anything about that day. I don't like working with people who are jumpy, nervous and hyper 24h/d and my legs are still sore because of all that standing... My "friends" who were working at the muksu-nurkka were very pissed off at me because they were doing it for free and I got paid 9.4euros/h. Well I guess I would have behaved the same way... or not. I also noticed that there were mostly just pairs/families there. I guess it is common to go to a fair/exhibition with your companion.

Customer service smile. Yeah I know the purpose and the meaning of that but still you don't see me smiling that smile... in fact you don't see me smiling that often anywhere. You see I don't think that there are that many things to be smiling about. When you do see me smiling you can be sure that it is for real, not a fake grin that you see in the ads(you can't inspect my upper jaw gums).

:)

Well anyway I'm glad that it is over now.

I visited the Game on exhibition in Tennispalatsi. Imatran Voima had a nice gig there. It's so cool! For just 6 euros you can play all you want: Arcade games, video consoles, hand held games and even pachinko.

intermission

... tai tunti turpaan. Such a good finnish saying!

end of intermission

happy b-day to Lotta&Senni! luv ya!

There is this 1 very strange tombstone at the "stone park"(that is the place where they sell those stones): It has an open door and a set of steps that lead to it. There are 3 figures standing in the beginning of the steps... 2 are standing with their backs towards the steps/door and the third one is facing these two. It looks just like a door of a club/baar with 2 bouncers and a customer who tries to get in. I wonder if he'll get in, or not... Who the fuck would like to have a tomb stone like that on their grave?

ok nuff said

see yall

Ill will janne

Bang, bang! My baby shot me down! Bang, bang!
Hei

Feeling bit down today... Don't know why.

I don't have much to say either.

I saw City of God yesterday. A veeery good movie indeed... I strongly recommend seeing it! It's structure kinda reminds me of movies like: Pulp Fiction, Good Fellas and Trainspotting but it feels more real. The actors are very good(vakuuttavia) and the script is interesting... even the sound score rocks(well it is mostly soul but still)! The only thing that I didn't like was that they had trasnlated/changed the names of the characters.

I'm gonna list some things that I would like to have in my crib:

1. A huge swimming pool filled with different colored hollow plastic balls. Pallomeri!

2. Ilmakiekko

3. A vacuum cleaner robot that looks and speaks like R2D2

4. a full sized church organ

more to come

see yall

Still killing Janne

Illah Killah
Konnichiwa!

It feels great to be back in HKI!

I was working at the Helsinki Book Fair last weekend. It went well... we had lots of customers and I managed to buy some books for myself too: The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told to Alex Haley, 8 Ball Chicks - A Year in the Violent World of Girl Gangs, William Blum's "Rogue State", Jonathan Lethem's "Gun, with occasional music" and 2 Douglas Coupland's books: "miss wyoming" and "Girlfriend in a Coma". I also bought some comics including Hugo Pratt's book about Antoine de Saint-Exupery and a Julie Doucet comic.

My cat is very ill... I think it's end is near.

This is great, just great!

Why does all the sad things happen in the autumn/early winter?

My ex contacted me. She wants to know how I feel about her?... do I hate her or am I neutral towards her? I dunno, but the last thing I need in my life is another not available girl as a friend... Sorry Saara! I'm glad that you are doing fine and all but I think you have messed with my life enough already. When ya wanna end something end it properly otherwise it will haunt you for a long time.

The near by tomb stones look cool covered in snow. I can't picture a stone that would suit me... I wish to be burned/dusted.

Ok this is getting too gloomy even for my liking.

I just Saw Kill Bill. It rocks! Great sound score, fighting scenes and even the actors didn't annoy me. It was drirected very well. Lots of pop culture references. It even starts with a "Shaw Scope" logo and an "old Klingon proverb". Tarantino could have messed this up but he didn't. It surprises me that it works this well. Yes, it ends in a cliffhanger but It wasn't an anticlimax type of ending, it leaves you satisfied and wanting for more.

music that kicks ass right now:

Kill Bill's sound score
old Mantronix and Egyptian Lover songs.
Why's "Darla" song from the Early Whitney ep

'til next time!

Ill Kill Janne

Mini skirts and snow
Well hello!

Last day here in Stockholm. It has been pretty fun and all but... Hell, it sure is nice to get back home!

We are going to the movies tonight, I think... Once upon a time in Mexico. Yeah it's that Desperado/El Mariachi warm up/sequel. It probably sucks ass but Johnny Depp is in it so it can't be completely bad can it? I would have liked to see "Guds stad" which is that Brasilian ghetto movie but they speak portuquese in it and it's subtitled in swedish. Jag kan forsto svenska men... I might miss something.

I didn't get to see Komaki yesterday. He works the night shift in SAS so he must have been tired or something. There were only 4-5 newbies training at the dojo. I also trained even though I didn't have my gear with me(borrowed a bokken from my bro). It felt good... haven't done that in awhile(damn that toe and those stupid doctors).

And yes we met Sari. She hasn't changed a bit: She had ghetto-locks(I dunno what they are really called) and she still lives like a bat.

It is strange that my bro behaves the way he does. My aunt said that he wasn't like that before I came. I quess my 'laxed personality gets him angry and hyper. I think he is still kinda excited about his job and all... maybe he'll calm down after a month or so, or not.

I wonder if it's snowing in Finland?
Onko ensilumi jo tullut?

music worth checking out:

Buck 65: Talkin honky blues(surf to www.buck65.com) great mix of alt-hiphop, blues, johnny cash type country sound and with kick ass lyrics!

"Problem today is that they got an answer for everything"

see ya

Illa chilla dilla Janne

We got some snow!
Yeah!

Most people don't like winter because it is cold and it limits the way you can dress. I like winter because here it is real: real snow, real cold and all that. I like to see change in things. I would be bored if it wouldn't rain once in a while. A real snowy and cold winter even makes you appreciate summer more.

We didn't do anything particular yesterday.

I'm all out of money and I had a terrible head ache.

Today we are probably going to meet Komaki sensei. It would be nice to see him and also some other swedish iaidokas.

I'm still not sure if I want to work and live here for a while or not.

Fresh Dj Bling Bling 5000000 is playing at Pacifico next Friday:)

cool music right now:

Fingathing: Superhero music
Josiah: The Josiah Ep(bought from that Why concert)
Welle Erdball: Nur Tote Frauen sind schon
...

My cat has cancer. It saddens me but I know that this is completely natural. Everything(living)/everybody dies. He is going to get a lethal injection... but not yet because he doesen't seem to be in any pain yet.

"Alles beginnt und endet zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort!"

My bro got back from work: The first thing he does is curse me... "you lazy ass fuck! you don't do anything! I've been working! yeah! You should appreciate that you lazy fatty!". Oh I love this guy!
He said that this Sari-girl is going to visit us today. She is this 20something girl who likes r&b and mainstream hip hop. Last time I saw her she was sleeping during the daytime and partying all night night... a real bat-girl

Yeah well see ya!
