Yes, in a few hours... it begins. Mandated by Finnish state, your favorite Finn (note: this means me) will be leaving for Kontioranta, also known as Gona Beach, for the next six months. This naturally will interfere with Apoing, but I'll be posting the next time on Apolyton two weeks from now... or earlier if I happen to suffer a complete mental crackdown.

Adios.

Finland has a military force?

[Meticulous Man]

Checkpoints. My checkpoint was that I was eager to get my hands on them assault rifles and kill the targets. Kill and maim dude.

Well, at least that ought to mean that you have good self-esteem... I was myself supposed to enter service last summer but they gave me a postponement by two years because I had this fear that I'd go crazy and shoot someone if I got my hands on an assault rifle... I'd most likely have had to cancel like Stefu's friend, whose diary, by the way, was a very interesting read to me.

Well that's different. If you're seriously thinking that you might have problems, then you should get free pass, if you're honest. It's not a place for everyone after all, and for those who are unable to participate and are honest, they shouldn't have to go. But then again, they don't force you to be there, so if you have to go, you can get out fast and you don't have to worry about it at all. It'll be ok.

Good luck Stefu. By the way Pekka, when does the sun rise in Finland during winter?

[Tattila the Hun]

That story is almost 1:1 to my adventures in the FDF, except that I was sent to psyc evaluation from Rovaniemi to Oulu, which is about 300 (?) Km... The doc pondered me for awhile, stamped some papers, and sent me back... I did manage to spent a whole month in the army. And lost a pair of gloves and a t-shirt.

Civil Service rules OK.

Good luck. Maybe they will make you lose some weight. You look too heavy in your avatar.

[Boris Godunov]

Maybe they will make him grow some hair, too!

Good luck, Steffie! Post pics of you in camoflauge so we can lau--er, I mean, admire!

Cheers.

That depends where Stefu is deployed... in Tornio, for example, sun doesn't rise at all during certain months...

[Pekka]

hahaha Tornio.. oh man.. no sun for poor Stefu..

[mrmitchell]

good luck STFUE

Uh oh, the evil Finnish army for world domination gains another soldier...
