Getting better!

Merry C-mas!
02.12.2009
Wrote a new rant with old observations, like a good introspect.
24.11.2009
Dear diary -- today, I've updated the rant page to include links to my writings outside this site. Additionally, I fidgeted about with some of the links for the sake of functionality.
03.11.2009
Transcribed a new rant in Finnish.
16.10.2009
Wow, something new - I wrote up a short text on the making of Space Suit Sammy. It has been on my mind for some time now to chronicle the time surrounding the games I made, and here is the bit corresponding to SSS.
14.10.2009
Slight reworks around the verbal structure of the site. My writing's always somewhat naďve to my own eyes, and I can't stop fiddling with the details every now and then, it seems.
08.10.2009
Minor rewriting around the site. I think I tucked away some extra sound files behind a link over at the Electrascope bit, while the games page has also been slightly reworked.
Nothing major, I'm afraid - the resume still requires a rewrite and the css file is so convoluted I can't decipher it anymore. Guess your post-industrial RAM gets kind of trashed under a prison sentence lockdown.
22.09.2009
The audio files for Electrascope, The On, lölsbeck (see main menu) are back online.
15.09.2009
A bunch of new texts that I just transcribed from my paper-based idea folder has just appeared on my rant page.
14.09.2009
Along the fine tradition of futile exercises, I've now linked my Facebook profile on the index. No point in hiding all the connections.

So, these two weeks went by in a hurry. It's rather hectic getting used to the 20.000 people in the same school spanning a kilometer-long campus.
Well, along the days crawling by I've updated a portion of my pages without special mention and will likely continue for some time.
Oh, yeah. I'm on Facebook now; Still getting used to the things I've been absolutely oblivious of for three years standing. Befriend me if you dare.
03.09.2009
Okay, so for the attuned the fact that my pages have been down for three years standing requires
an explanation and the people who think they've got it exactly covered require serious rumour control.
I am setting everything straight and here's the "cold, hard" truth: I killed my formerly-abusive
father and have been serving a manslaughter sentence of 9 years, which boiled down to half that for
a first-timer. This may shock and surprise some people. Naturally, this complete and utter downward spiral
of my life shouldn't have affected the site in the modern age, but my patron-of-arts providing the webspace
promptly "disowned" me and since the Internet is a touchy subject to access in prison, especially while
I was simultaneously trying to figure out where my life went all wrong, I failed to resurface the site
in a timely fashion.
So what's up now? Well, I've still got one year to go, but I'm in a minimum security ward and am attending
the Oulu University as an English major. My life is starting to turn out well, if I can get my social bearings
straight (sounds unlikely). For the bulk of the day I have total freedom, and page updates should resume.
I have produced some detailed texts chronicling my disturbing history with the father I mostly couldn't
love. This is an important first for me, because I clearly have hushed my childhood to death in the past.
Please read them, if you have the endurance. They certainly clear up a lot of things, and they're not the
defensive posturing one might expect.
02.07.2009
Okay, this date marks the resurrection of the old page, more or less in the same shape as three years ago.
I'm not touching most of the stuff yet, so have them their way.
