Won't autofocus on D40 but still it's a great lens. Had fun shooting with it.

The Royal Institute of Technology

Got in there as well. Into Design and Implementation of ICT Products and Systems Master's program. Option number one worked out. Stockholm, here I come!

Yes, I am quitting my job. Two jobs, actually. Selling my beautiful car, giving up my nice two-room apartment in the city center with own lovely sauna and moving to Sweden. This might seem like all I've dreamt of (and it almost is) and I'm giving it up for at least two years. I know I can manage with Bachelor's degree. But there so much more waiting for me in the future. So much more to achieve. This is no time to stop. There's no limit for perfection.

Uppsala University

Got directly admitted to Uppsala University with 999 merit rating. I guess, the highest possible. I have two universities waiting for me already. Still waiting for results from The Royal Institute of Technology, my number 1 choice.

Helsinki University of Technology

Got into Master’s Programme in Foundations of Advanced Computing there. Still waiting for The Royal Institute of Technology to publish the results. Thinking whether to go study for Master of Science degree or stay in Kemi for a year and continue working as a software engineer.

Once Upon a Time...

Hello, Kurre!

I'm sitting in front of you and writing you a letter. You're drinking your juice taking too much in your mouth and it makes your cheeks so huge. You drink again and sneeze your nose. you keep the paper of course. You complain that I don't want to waste a paper from an exercise book but why do you save all those papers with all your snot and bacterias on them? You have in every single pocket of yours. That's why it's terrible to wear anything after you as I feel disgusted by them every time I put my hand into the pocket and meet another paper piece. You know, it's not very hauska to tutustua with them so throw them away every time. Ok?

This pen is awful. I'll take another one. Now it's much better. Actually I was planning to sketch a GUI for my project on this particular piece of paper but decided to write you a letter. So here it is.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
Pupu

Pupu wrote this letter, put it into envelope, wrote address on it, put a stamp on it and asked Kurre to send it. Kurre sent it and received it few days later. Few years later Kurre was cleaning and found this letter. Therefore it is published online for the first time ever.
