Terroristerna (The Terrorists) is a documentary about the riots in Gothenburg from another perspective than the conventional, it elucidate the event from the activists perspective. A very well done political documentary with interviews from the people in jail as well as a chronological depict of the 3 days which made Gothenburg look like a war zone back in the summer of 2001.

Naturally is the documentary a bit slanted in the advantage of the activists, but i don’t see a problem with that. The complete press-coverage of the event is slanted in advantage of the police. Maybe not as controversial as i expected it to be, and i think that should have focused a bit more on the actually events that the political believes of the convicted.

Still, a great documentary which should be seen by everyone. Sadly that ain’t going to happen since one of the activists opposed spreading of this documentary. So the only chance to see this documentary is to see it at Hagabion in Gothenburg. No DVD, VHS or TV-Performance will be done, sadly.

I’m incredibly tired today. Hum, maybe attending to the gym for two consecutive days isn’t a good idea. I wanna go home and sleep … damn …

Ok, it’s Friday and I’m sitting at home in front of my computer… Odd feeling, i mean, I’m more or less never in front of my computer during weekends, but today is a special occasion… hum, come to think of it, it’s nothing special at all.. I’m sick, again. I don’t get it, I’ve been really good with both food, training and sleep.

Speaking of training, since march I’ve dropped 7 kg and 7% fat (!) in my body. <10% fat is considered to be pro athlete … I’m at 13%, yepp, I’m satisfied. (30%+ is considered overweight, "standard" is around 20-25%). I’ve never been fat or anything, always been working out. But there was a period around 2000 which i gained to about 94kg… It came to a point when my grandmother said "Tommie, you’re getting a bit heavy now", on Christmas eve 2000.

Then i realized that i had todo something about it, today, 3 years later I’m at a weight of 75 kg (+- 2) and i love it. Training has become a dedication for me. Since I’ve been sick since Tuesday I’m almost stressed about the fact that i haven’t been to the gym since Monday. Good or bad? I belive it’s good, you’re a much better person when you’re satisfied with yourself and on how the way you look. The shower after a 1,5 hour workout at the gym is an extraordinary feeling.

Anyhow, staying home because a good friend is coming to visit us tomorrow and there is going to be one hell of a ride … wee, if you’re planning to hit the nightclubs of Gothenburg tomorrow, stay out of our way …

Weee, happy birthday to me,happy birthday to me, happpyyyy bbiirrrtthhhdaaayyy deaaaarr tommieeeeee…

Happy birthday to me.

woha, 23 … I’m getting old …

Another weekend in my life has come to an end, and what a great weekend it was. Started out with a flight up to Stockholm for a dj set together with Jezper (yeah, I’m not playing, just acting as a manager … ). Meet up with the party arranger, which is a good friend of mine. Check in to the hotel and god damn what a hotel it was, Clarion Hotels, shit. Everything was designed, even the light setting in the room was designed. Lovely, guess i have to get used to this kind of treatment from now on …

The performance by Jezper that night was outstanding, flawless mixing with a perfect selection of tunes. Not only because he played my new production … Trust me, it’s a surrealistic feeling to hear your own stuff pounding out of the PA and see people go berserk. Jikes, what a feeling. I also meet a lot of people which i worked with during the Arvika Festival, true honor to meet em all again.

The club closed at 03.00. The party arranger threw me into a cab and off to see Sasha. A bit less people at the party than i expected, still, it was a marvelous night to remember. I mean, seeing one of the worlds best djs, drop on the the worlds best tunes … Sasha – Xpander.

Went back to the hotel at about 6 for some quick sleep, because hotel stay means hotel breakfast! And shit, if the room was good, wait until you see the breakfast. I think I’ve never seen that much food in my entire life. Yummy! Meal and travel back to Gothenburg was next in line for this mini trip to Stockholm.

Came back to Gothenburg around 4. Went home and fell a sleep. Poor little me, to much party and drinkin’ … Sleep for about two hours when a friend woke me up with a phone call.Spent the evening with her, Jezper and Red Dragon. Which was a decent movie, a bit slow but i guess psychological thrillers are supposed to be that way. Do notice that i didn’t consume any alcohol this day, quite impressive, for being me …

We kicked off Sunday with a pizza and taco buffet and haven’t done much since then. Interesting not to be hung over on a Sunday, hum … interesting …
