Exciting things…
Expect a VERY cool announcement from me sometime this week on the blog… ^_^
Also, in other news… I’ve been getting a bit better at boarding but I’m still having a terrible time on the flat parts. Strangely enough, the steepness on harder runs doesn’t really bother me as much. Tomorrow I will be taking a vacation day and hitting up the local Cypress mountain. (Relic employees get free ski passes here). They’ve been closing at night but suddenly today they got a whole whack of snow (18cm!). Should be good grounds for practicing. I’ve really got to get in a LOT of practice before the season runs out if I’m going to be able to keep up with the Relic guys on the next Big White ski trip. I don’t want to be left alone on the bunny hills
This long weekend I’m planning on going to Mt. Baker in Washington for some more practice on the way to Seattle to visit and hang out with friends. Should be a great weekend and I’ll make it back on time for Easter dinner with the family on Sunday.
Some other cool news at Relic… we recently got 46″ plasmas installed in the office… 2 out in the 16th floor lobby, and then a few scattered around the office in the team areas. It’s actually really cool. They’ve made all the corner offices into team meeting areas, instead of having producers or higher-ups in them. They’ve put in couches, TVs, computers, gaming consoles into them… it’s great for testing out new games and for having team meetings. Much better atmosphere than before. Just another reason why Relic is soooo fun to work at ^_^
Edit: Here are some pictures from recent events

Gotta love the orca whale…. LOL… man, I can’t wait till they get a new logo/mascot next year…

Reminds me of back when Winnipeg used to have a real hockey team.
It’s a very bittersweet feeling.

The snowboard is cool, but I was expecting a HW mothership on it…

That would be so neat. (Can’t Relic order some for the fans
O, and personally, I really like hardboot more, since I’m not a freestyler.
