Last year's Blockfest.

Eating ice cream and making sure my hat is where it is supposed to be.

The crowd is waiting for Cheek.

I just love this photo!
We were playing in the park, me, my nephew and my bf.
And Ukko's kettlebell.

I've been to lots of gigs this summer (and fall).
Last Saturday I got to see Cheek. It's not really my kind of music but I did like the show with the fireworks and all...

... me, my bébé and AC/DC on the stage!

Selfie (going for #punk #look)

This was (nearly) my look for the gig that I went to on Saturday.
By "nearly" I mean that there were some changes - I wasn't too happy with my hair and so on...

We went to see this band called Juustopäät. It was so cool - seeing them for the very first time. I mean I was first introduced to Juustopäät in, like, 1995. But since I spent my childhood, um, in the middle of nowhere I never saw them playing. Kinda. Sorta.

Thank you, Tia, for sharing this photo with me!

I feel so sad for not having a proper camera back then... Back when my hair looked... um... well... 

Of course it was, like, totally different back then. We didn't have digital cameras or smartphones to take photos... I d_i_d have a camera, one that needed like a suitcase to be carried around. Yeah, those were the times. Back then. And I'm in the middle.

I think I look dapper in this photo.
I'm wearing a suit and a hat and a bowtie. And I have a cut in my finger.
It was in the elementary school. One day we were asked to dress up like back in the days.
I might have been one of the very few who wore anything special for the day. I can still remember the feeling that I had... a little proud for having the guts to do something different.

It's Thursday again.
This Thursday I want to take you to the streets of Munich, Germany. We are leaving for clubbing and I definitely look wasted. I don't remember when this shot was taken, maybe five, six or seven years ago. But I think I still look the same when wasted.

Hockey Time (#hoki #kiakko)

I went to a hockey game a couple of days back. It was almost as I remembered: freezing fingers, sitting on totally uncomfortable seats, and not having a cold beer between rounds. But this time it w_a_s a bit different: it was Ilves boys playing for the finals. There was so much speed and skill on the ice that I wouldn't have known the difference if it had been two league teams competing with each other.

First goal was seen something like 40 seconds after the game really started. 0-1.
The game ended 2-4, and HPK is now playing in the finals.
I'm not too skilled with posting a video here. I do hope you are able to watch it. And hear people talking about the game next to me. Thanks guys!

ps I got my cold beer after the game.

Leaving for the game

My so called business look. I mean now that I'm back in the business meeting customers and potential investors I should, for at least, try and look all sharp and ready to go. Well, that might not be the case, yet... I took this photo yesterday just to have some proof. I had just finished brushing my teeth, and my colleague sent me an sms "am already here waiting". F**k! He was six minutes early and... here's the result.

And I did take that scarf off. It looked stupid.

Selfie (B O O M)

Yeah, baby, yeah!
I saw the very first bare legs today. And it's still like winter here in Finland. Or is it?
Since the Sun was shining warmly enough in the morning I decided to go for my spring coat. It wasn't my brightest idea but some how I survived - here where polar bears walk on the streets and the sky isn't like anywhere else.

This is my spring look, kinda. And hell with it! I was tired as hell and just wanted to have a photo of my cool (the coolest!) coat. It's Maloja and I luv it!

With this I want to thank mr. Bruuttus for changing my life forever. You are one special horse, you are.

Yesterday I wrote about one of my favorite bands, Backyard Babies.
This photo was taken at that gig that I went to some years back.
It looks like I'm having a drink.
Maybe next time you see me eating something.
Cheers!
Kippis!
Skål!
Pohojammaan kautta!
Hölökyn kölökyn!

... and a year later living life to the fullest!
I still remember that New Year's Eve in 2014. It was raining, and there was no snow. We had homemade candies and champagne. We eat, we drank. We stayed up late and watched Kon-Tiki.

ps you find the same lousy story here (in Finnish) http://apinkglove.blogspot.fi/2014/01/my-nye-2014-uudenvuoden-kujeet.html

Happy holidays!

As you can see in the pic I'm still able to pull some sort of a smiley on my face. It's day five doing absolutely nothing but seeing friends, going to the gym, and having long walks with the extended family.

ps do not tell my mom that I post a photo of me wearing b o t h my onesie and t h a t hair piece. My mom didn't let me come out of the car while going for the groceries. I was just wearing my onesie. Doesn't she love me? #don'tsayyourloveiskillingme 

Ihanaa joulun odotusta!

Yritin ottaa meistä Rupsukan kanssa kaverikuvan. #wefie

Siitä ei tullut y h t ä ä n mitään. Rupsukka halusi töniä ja pökkiä turvallaan. Hän halusi myös maistaa ratsastuskypäräni laella sojottavaa nappia. Hän halusi hiplata tukkaani ja helliä turvallaan poskiani. 

Aikani ähkittyäni pyysin Leenaa avukseni. En tiedä, oliko sekään niin hyvä idea. (Ja näiden kuvien ottamiseen käytettiin #htc #one #m8.)

Ihanaa joulun odotusta joka tapauksessa meiltä kahdelta!

With these shots I wish my family and friends abroad a Merry Christmas!
I was trying to capture some serious #wefie. This is the outcome.

ps since I have fans in Russia I'd love to wish you all Merry Christmas in Russian. I can only write my name in Russian so this is what I found on the Internet. Does it make any sense?
Счастливого Нового Года и Рождества!

When was this photo taken?
I honestly can't say. But what I c a n say is that I bought that Mickey Mouse t-shirt in Bangkok in 2000. And I got my Canon ixus in 2001 (the camera I used back then). So, let's just say that this pic was taken for more than a decade ago. And we haven't changed a bit, have we?

ps my hair looks better now, though.
pss I still have that t-shirt. Is it already vintage?

Quote for the Day

People say "everything happens for a reason". Me, instead, say "everything happens at the same time". And it's happening now, everything, I mean. We are having a Christmas party with my colleagues (eating, little drinking). Then my sister's husband is having another party where I'm invited. And, of course, one of my very favorite bands, Amorphis, is playing tonight at Pakkahuone, Tampere.

Tough luck.

Röllyn matkapäiväkirja: päivä neljä Rauhalahden kylpylässä Kuopijossa

Tämän päivän liikunta koostui sauvakävelystä, kuminauhajumpasta sekä reisi-, peppu- ja vatsajumpasta. Käytiin myös keilaamassa. Mieletön fiilis!
ps sauvakävelyssä kului Sports Trackerin mukaan reilun viiden kilometrin matkalla yli 300 kcal. Vauhti ei päätä huimannut, koska samaan aikaan tapahtui myös savolaista suunnistusta.

Röllyn matkapäiväkirja: päivä kolme Rauhalahden kylpylässä Kuopijossa

Tämän päivän epistola:
vesijumppa, kahvakuulatreeni, juoksulenkki ja vesijuoksu.
ps vähän venyttelyjä...
