 ME, MYSELF AND I

As a history student I should start this by telling you how even the Ancient Romans... but then again I've always liked Phoenicians more. I was born in May 1973 in Vantaa in the outskirts of Helsinki (about the same neighbourhood where Finnish Formula 1 driver Mika Häkkinen is born). I lived the first decade of my life in Helsinki but then my father got a new job and we moved to Pirkkala, right next to the city of Tampere, where I've been stucked ever since.


I wish you welcome to my humble web site. This is introductory page for all you web surfers and accidental tourists who for some unknown reason have popped into my homepage. I courage you to scribble your marks to my guestbook. Who knows I might even like to contact you or check out your website sometime...

Do you know this guy? (12 kB)

What kind of nerd puts a picture of himself sitting in front of computer in his homepage?

What will I become when I grow up? That innocent little question from the childhood ;-) I fit pretty well to this typical Generation-X stereotype. Grown up with TV, overeducated but not enough self-esteem to get a decent job, because couple of years older have blocked most fitting career opportunities. First I studied myself a degree in computer science from the Tampere Commercial College. I guess I managed to absorb something from there 'cause I am still fumbling with these damn machines.


Then the old 'humanist' in me raised its ugly head and I decided to start history studies at the University of Tampere. So I am currently a fourth year history major planning to graduate in a couple of years. This fall I was lucky to be chosen into a teacher training and currently I'm teaching at high school and studying education to get my teachers diploma next summer. Is this the field I want to earn my living in the future? Well, yes, I have nothing against that kind of scenario. On the other hand, I have become more and more interested in graphics and web design lately, so que sera...

Strange hieroglyphs (3.5 kB)

Wonder what those strange symbols in left side of the page are? Well, I have drawn those kind of hieroglyphs all my life. Almost every page corner of my studybooks is full of those. My sister once said I should show them for some shrink, so here's an example for whole world to see.

Hey, I'm not finished yet.
