Day 10: Meet Jonas DayThis is Jonas Jansson, a courageous young fellow who has agreed to follow the Book’s injunctions to the letter. In this, his first week, he has already been arrested once and lost his girlfriend. Go Jonas!
Jonas was born in 1982, in a small village of Gavle in Sweden. He grew up, went to school, made some friends, studied a bit, got drunk a couple times, got a job - but something was still lacking in his otherwise eventful life. One day last year, the authors of the Book spotted him playing pinball in his local mall. Something about his style and look caught their eye. They approached him and asked Mr. Jansson if he would play the guinea pig for the venture. He said he’d think about it, and before he knew it, his life was totally and utterly transformed. It’s only been a few days since Jonas has been following the Book but already its pepped up his life no end. Only a week ago, he read the »love of your life« page, and followed it a bit too far. First he chucked his girlfriend Magda, even though nothing was said about getting rid of current loves. Then he thought he spotted the love of his life, 59-year old Canadian tourist Bibi Jeanmaire, busy enjoying a coffee in dowtown Stockholm with ex-Mountie husband Pierre-Louis. Jonas appraoched her, showed her the relevant Book page, and proceeded to woo her with a passionate kiss. That’s the spirit Jonas! Local police agreed to drop all charges the next day, but now without fining him a substancial 1000 crowns. Better luck next time!
Jonas will be discussing his adventures during the year on www.thiswebsitewillchangeyourlife.com; be sure to compare his experiences to yours.
I was kind of hoping for a blog like mine where you were able to go through and see Jonas’ activities throughout the year, however that wasn’t the case as you can see from the link. The site wasn’t very user friendly and the only thing I found was that he’s now looking for someone to marry. Oh well, nice to meet you Jonas; good luck on your quest for a lady who’ll do all this crazy stuff too! ;)
