A month ago, June 1st I graduated from high school or upper secondary school or whatever you're used to calling it, it's the school I used to go from 16 to 19 years old. I graduated with pretty good grades, on the matriculation examinations I did the advanced math, physics, chemistry, English and Finnish and on the scale from 4 to 10 I got 7 from chemistry and 8 from the rest (C for chemistry and M for the rest for any Finnish folks that might be reading). To be honest I have no clue how international our school system is so to put it briefly I studied the hardest subjects available while still getting above average grades and I'm happy with the results considering the amount of work I put in which was close to zero compared to a lot of people who quit social life and even hobbies in order to read more and get ready for the examinations.






On the left is my 21-year-old older brother and on the right my little brother for 17 years. I'm the shortest of the trio and the youngest is actually the tallest. The direct sunshine messed up the photo a bit, we don't really look that pissed off.  :P

June 28th was the end of my three months of working at my father's agriculture factory as a warehouse guy. I had started working April 2nd, a week after finishing the exams. Enjoyed it a lot and working with 40 to 60 year old people was refreshing and one of the funniest experiences of my life, every day was different and full of laughter and getting paid for that was a top notch ride for me. I also progressed a lot when it comes to working with wood and metal and basic handcraft stuff.



Earlier this week, July 2nd I got a place from the technical university of Tampere to study Knowledge Management. Seeing my name at the list of accepted students was just astonishing and I think it kinda wrapped up the last three years in the best way I could ever imagine... All the hard work was there and I'm safe for the next six years and ready to open up a new page in my life. What's succeeding without a little bragging, so a lot of my friends didn't get into a school at all and a lot of them had studied shitloads for the entering exams and even attended paid courses to prepare. I was busy working.  :cc_detective: :mellow:

However, the university studying will only kick off August 2014. Until then I'll be in the army, which I'll leave to next Monday and attend for 346 days. A lot of countries have no compulsory military service so basically how it goes here is that you're bound to attend for six, nine or twelve months in the service depending on what you're going to do there or what you're forced to do. Obviously a lot of people try to get it easy with the six months but as every position needs to be filled, a lot of them will stick for 12 months against their will but that's just how it goes. I'm looking forward to getting into the leadership training and getting driving licences for trucks along with the competences to work as a truck driver which cost shitloads today in Finland. It's a 12 month job but I'll be getting nearly 10 000 euro's worth for free and the leadership skills might come handy when it comes to getting a job in the future.

Basically you're in the army for the weekdays and have free weekends. I'll be getting home pretty much every weekend except the first one and except the weekends which are spent on camps which might last from a week to a few weeks. As far as I know we'll get off Fridays at about 5 PM and will have to get back to the barracks Sunday 10 PM.
Oh yeah, you gotta shave your head before showing up. Took care of that earlier today.  :euro:




Feel free to follow on Instagram from my signature in case you're interested, I'll put up some army related pictures along the year. Take care guys, hope you are doing well! :wub:

You seem to have figured your priorities in life, which is great. Congratulations on your graduation! That army thing sounds like it can be a nice experience, since you got your weekends free.  :a-cheer:

PS: Your hair is so white :O

Thanks guys!

GDL: Yes I'm somewhat looking forward to the army and now I'm just trying to get that mindset needed for something that sucks while you're doing it but turns out to be a good overall experience. I hope I could enjoy the journey rather than think how your freedom is sucked up and how the undercut is all of a sudden forbidden for a year.  :ninja: Gotta thank summer and the sun for the light hair, it usually gets a lot darker around September. :P

Taz, Dak & KM are listed as active guys within the roster, so is anything incoming by 'em?
If you could kick someone of GTAS in the balls big time, who would that be and why him?
How would you flirt with a chick if you were not able to talk to her? Natural smells, mating dance, etc.?

I try to update that list once in a while but it's not always accurate, Taz has something unreleased, KM and Daksad not yet but hopefully.
I'm not into physical punishment but if I had to pick someone it would be Falcon, I don't think I have to explain that one.
If you're not able to talk to her you're pretty much fucked (or have to fuck yourself that is :P ) anyway, the other things you hint to might be helpful tools depending on the situation but if you can't (general statement, not direct towards you) have a normal/casual/flirty conversation I'd focus on fixing that before buying a cologne or learning to dance.

I'd not kick anybody but Art.
If I couldn't talk to that chick I would probably flirt with natural smells yes, I'd just smile and try to look good  :euro:

Kicking someone in the junk is weak as fuck, I'd rather break someone's nose. And uh..alot of people here lol

Winking, smiling, just body language in general usually does the trick for me
