Hi again

2011-10-09T22:21:00.007+02:00

On popular demand I have decided to write a bit.

9.10 - Yesterday, was my third day of illness. My cheeks felt warm and the blood was pounding in my head. A 3 mm thick layer of insulation covered most of my senses. I slept until 11 and had a non-inspiring breakfast. At 1 Tits and me collected all rubbish: paper, cardboard, metal, energy waste, bio and glass. Outside, we saw the near produced food shop was opened. We paid a visit but it was shit. It was one of these places that destroy Callio. No-spirit and expensive as hell.

We went to Alko and returned to bottles, then to Sävy for a cappuccino. I drew a car.

At Sävy, he almost forgot our cappuccinos

From Fida Titus found Hugo Boss trousers and I Dockers manchester trousers. Metro to Kaisaniemi and into Eurokangas and Marimekko. We bought a table cloth. From there on the Marimekko where we met Fille's family except Fille, who was cooking one floor up. We ate together at Hesburger.

in the elevator?

From there we continued to Stadium, but no biking helmets. On to Inter sport, only crap. From there to Hemtex and bought sheets. Then to Anttila, more sheets. Then back to Stockmann and we bought a pepparkvarn (swe) just before Stockmann was closing.

Rain is fun

Shopping over

From there tram 9 back. I was nackered. At home I was lying in bed with eyes like oysters in fever. I watched the dirty dozen (2/5). Sleep.

10.10 Woke up 9 but thought it was too early so back and up at 11. Breakfast and drawing and a game of starcraft until 14.45.

I hurried to the metro and went to Gräsviken where I bought one fake coca-cola and two cans San Miguel beer. I took the bus towards home and thought I missed my stop because I was in my Knausgård book. I didn't, and got of at the stable and walked up through deep snow. We had two fish to eat and grained potatoes. I went to the band room and played a bit of music, drums. One hour later it was sauna and I rolled in snow. A beer and then I skyped with Maria.

12.2 Saturday - I woke up at around 9 and laid around. I got up a while later and looked for my phone and found it. I had breakfast. Now is now. I don't know what to do.

After that Jonna's mother 60th birthday started. We had food from the buffée table and dined and listened to jazz. It was tasty. We stayed there for a long time and talked with friends and their relatives. I danced two songs. Then I thanked and left and ran to a bus stop on the big Lahtis highway. A bus drove by and I got in. I got of at the central station and walked to Cuba. There I met Rolle and Anne-mie and their friends. I bought a mojito and talked with people. Some time later there were two bold men that had big trays of drinks in front of them. They said please hey drink this. So the whole group had drinks for maybe 500 e. Nobody knew the guys but nobody felt ill either afterwards. I walked in haste to the bus station and took the 1:09 bus home. It was nice to be home.

29.1 Saturday - I woke up around 10-11. I felt slightly chewy. I had breakfast and withdrew to the band room. I stayed there for hours and eventually finished a song. I am not good in singing. I listened to some music. That was nice. We had fish soup for lunch. After that I went to Masaby and played ice hockey. That was great fun as always but the teenagers are always a bit unstable and take breaks all the time. They take a smoke or mock each other. I biked home after an hour of playing. I took a shower, dressed up and played 30 min of GTA. I took the bus to Helsinki. It was snowing hard. I fell asleep in the bus. In Kampen I was looking at some foreign looking men hitting on some young blond girls. I was standing next to their game reading a book , written by Norwegian author. I walked towards Toni's deli and arrived there at 19.30 sharp. I sat next to Hanna and Jenny. It was a Justus dinner. I had a artichoke soup, chicken for main course and tiramisu, 50 e. We walked to an 80's night club just nearby. 9 euros to get in and for the coat. I stayed there for two hours and talked with Linda, Hanna, Kim and Jenny. I took the 1.19 bus home. The driver asked me like my father where I was going. I sat in the bus, walked home and jumped in bed.

Heavy snowfall

Justus dinner

30.1 Sunday - I woke up at 10 and had a quick and slightly boring breakfast looking at it from a food perspective. Just two slices of bread with cheese and a cup of tea. I helped Pekka with cleaning the pipes going down from the shower. After that it was skiing time. We skied for 2.15 hours and the weather was beautiful. At one time the snow was so soft and deep that I sank down 1,5 meters and had difficulties getting up. Back at home I cleaned my room and changed sheets. First time in a month. This was followed by dinner. Mini potatoes, meet and beans. After that it was time for julstjärnor cakes and glögg, glue wine. Then I finished cleaning my room and relaxed until now. And now I am going to the sauna.

There Andrea, Hanna, Moa, Noora, Linda, X, Kåre and me had dinner. Fish salmon pasta with shrimps. I got a ride to the centre but there were no suitable trains so I had to to wait for an hour in McD. I bought a big milk shake and drank it and read Knausgård. A women next to me, looking torn, was falling asleep constantly. The guards came and woke her up: she opened her eyes and said:

- Mmm, your hamburgers are good here, really good.

I took the train home and it was nice to sleep.

It was ok so we met close to the horse stable at 11.30. We skied to Hvitträsk and to Humaljärvi and back from there. It took us about 4 hours. It was a nice long trip. Maria called in the middle of the forrest. At home I had a shower and then it was time for food. It was a Chinese soup that mother made of ingredients I had bought from Holland. Gosh, the soup was not nice. We had fattiga riddare for dessert and that was better. I relaxed the rest of the day and finished efficiently some songs in the band room. I watched hot tub time machine 2/5.

Rolle took a bus home and I took a bus home a bit later.

I tried to run to the next tram stop but missed it by a couple of meters. I arrived at the harbour a bit late and M&N were already walking towards the city centre. We tried to meet at the station but missed each other. I took the bus home. At home I put on my out door clothes and scared M&N when they were walking home from the station. I was a big dog. They got scared and scared with their screams a barking dog somewhere in the neighbourhood.

30.12 Thursday – I went to work. After work I went to Gräsviken’s alko and bought red, white and champagne for the New Years Eve. I took the bus home from there. It was a wintry nice landscape.

31.12 Friday – New Years Eve – I went to work 8.20 by bus. I almost missed the bus but the driver stopped on the street. He said on New Years Eve you can make an exception but I have to pay the fines, if the police stops us, he said. M&N visited me at work. At one we left and had noodle soup at the Wrong Noodle bar. It was ok, but not good. From there we went shopping a bit. Maria and me bought tickets and watched “Somewhere” at Maxim (4/5). After the cinema we met Naz who bought some New Years pastries and we took tram 4 to Isak’s. There a wonderful dinner, a charming Ida and Dennis was waiting for us. We had three-course dinner, finished with home made ice cream. 23.15 we went to a small hill in Mejlans and saw 2010 go to 2011 in dark steps. We walked back and had the pastries. At 1.30 we started walking towards P(N)asila and took a drink train home. We were home and in bed at 4. Very nice in bed it is in general to be, almost always.

6.1 Thursday – Was Epiphany and I was free from work. We woke up at 7.30. We had our last breakfast. We walked to the station in snow and dragged the suit cases. We got on the train, travelled to Pasila and changed and got off in Tikkurila. From there we took a bus to the airport. At the airport M&N had trouble checking in. We had tea and baguette and cinnamon bun. Then we went to the security and we said goodbye. Sad. Then I took the 615T to Helsinki and studied well the cinema programme. I bought two tickets to the other guys (first time 3/5 second time 2/5) I met Titus and Chasje at Java. From there we walked to Sky and had ham-pineapple-paprika pizza. Tit and me hurried after the pizza to Tennispalatsi and watched the film. We took the train home after that. When we came home we jammed in the band room, drank gly wine and had a small bit of food. That was that.

7.1 Friday – Woke up at 7.30. I took the bus at 8.20 to Helsinki. I worked until around 6. At 6 I met Isak under Stockas klocka. We had dinner, fajitas, at Santa Fee. We talked a lot and he gave me a pen and breads. After that we went to Stockmann and ate ice cream. Two balls each lemon sorbet and pistachio for me. From there we walked to Teerenpeli and tried some beers from Finland. They were brewed in Lahti. Mine was very Finnish in character. It was hard, with hard bubbles and a oil smoky taste. At the moment I prefer Belgian beer. Strangely bossa nova inspired music was played. I took a bus home at 21.19 and Isak went home. At home I rested, after my first working day in a while. I watched Taken for the second time (first time 4/5 second time 3/5).

My new room

We got on the the bus at 10.07 and arrived to Gräsviken and Helsink around 10.50. At 11 we were at Amos Andersons Art Museum and entered when the doors opened at 11. Mamma, Pekka and me watched the paintings of Hugo Backmansson. He was an officer and a painter. They were good, the paintings. His second name was Elias. From there we walked to the Alexander theatre were the Swedish theatre is at the moment. We watched the play Fanny och Alexander, written by Ingmar Bergman. It was refreshing to be a the theatre but it wasn’t spot on. 3,5 hours later we walked to Nan King. There, Isak and Ida were waiting for us. There we had dinner. The waiter was very interested in Ida and she made friends with some Chinese and Norwegian people. After the fried bananas with ice cream we walked towards the station. Isak and Jonna got on the tram and M,P and me took the train home. Titus went to see Elsa. At 20.38 I was home and now is about now.

IT was tasty and interesting to see that an Italian didn’t like it so much. The Italian kitchen is so strong that other cuisines can’t penetrate the taste of Italians, it seems. We continued to De Paas and I had a Kapittel Blond. Then we walked back and home.

3.12 Friday – Woke up around 10 for the last time at Wagenstraat 85 G. We had breakfast and I started cleaning and continued packing. At around 1 everything was ready. We went to a new coffee place. I had an excellent espresso. We biked to the train station and left the fiets in gratis fiets stalling. We walked back, handed the keys to Mandy and said goodbye. We walked back to the station with all the stuff. I train was just about to leave. We reached Arnhem Zuid. Manu was there. In Delaaristan a delicious meal was waiting for us, chicken. Then I tried to fix the keyboard for Mar, almost worked. Took a shower. Then we drove to the station and Maria and me waited at the station.

The train left at 8:07 from Arnhem. I waved until I was behind something built by someone. I shared the compartment with 3 Russians or Polish and with an Indian or Pakistani. When they Russians/Polish left he expressed his annoyance with their talk that lasted from Arnhem to Cologne where they got off to change. It didn’t bother me. I liked their quiet sophisticated manners. I think they were impoverished but happy middle class aristocrats. The train was delayed already in Köln. I had some evening snacks prepared by ma femme. Tasty, the Indian was looking at it with long eyes and had to leave the compartment in an anguish of temptation, I read from his face. I later saw him eat a black and oily banana. I went to sleep, if that is possible to say, due to the flimsy nature of sleep in trains, at least on my account.

Train

4.12 Saturday – Woke up around 3 and 8.30. The train was still in Germany. From there on nearly 12 hours of stress started. The train was losing more and more and the number of stops in the middle of nowhere increased. Delayed trains strengthen your nerves. There is no better way in harnessing them. Flying is for sissies in this sense. There you have only a brief moment of stress and when you fly you can’t stop. We arrived nearly 3 hours after scheduled arrival and I had missed my train. I crossed Stora Bält with a local train I was lucky to meet two fellow travellers who had to endure the same. Baba from the Netherlands and Otmar from Turkey were very nice gentleman. We waited at Malmö C. An hour later we got on the next X2000. At 15.15 we left Malmö. I talked with Otmar about his business and it sounded interesting. I also want to start a business in paper. I watched a part of Kick ass in the train. I took farewell of my companions and jumped of the train and ran as fast as I could with my three bags whomping around me. I caught a taxi with a sleepy driver. He drove slowly. I arrived 2 min before closing the check in and a man at the door said you will make it. I was relieved when walking aboard. I adjusted my packing and finished Kick ass (3/5). Then I ate a shrimp sandwich and drank Tuborg beer from Denmark. Main course curry chicken and meatballs. I walked around a bit in my slippers that I wore barefoot and in my soft trousers. I started watching flags of our fathers. I went to sleep after building by berth.

Maria jumped on my bike and we biked towards Klingendaal. We bought salad ingredients on the way. At Katrines place we prepared bread and a mozza salad. Guests arrived and we stayed there until 12. Then we biked to Momfer something bar and from there to De Paap. At 2.30 Maria and me biked home in rain. That was my 52 b-day party.

Sunday 14.11 – Woke up at around 10-11. We had breakfast and two cups of coffee. We watched the film Fargo 4/5. It was a similar film to the Big Lebowski. There was a different kind of woman hero. Then we walked a bit in the city centre and went to a Restaurant, b-day dinner. I had chicken saté and Maria had something strange. Then fish for starter and ice cream for dessert. Afterwards we skyped with sak, Pekka, Titus and Margareta. I followed Maria to the train, met Kaja by accident at the station who had been in Brussels and biked back home. I watched Children of Men 5/5 and went to sleep. It is a very good film.

Monday 15.11 – Woke up at 8 and put on my new shirt that I got as a birthday present. Blue with white stripes and a white collar. I biked to work. I worked until around 5 and biked fast home because the air was cold and clear. I skyped with Ida, Isak and Jonna. Ida waved goodbye to me. I had a salad and some extra belegen kaas and sausage from Italy. I skyped with Maria. Then I biked to Vorburg and played football until 22. I biked home and drank 2 bottles of water on the way. At home I took out the garbage and showered. Now is now.
