Two random and incoherant posts wrapped into one…

It’s been a while since i’ve posted here. Work has kept me busy :( I left work early today. My eye was bloodshot and red. My head hurt from staring at the computer screen the whole day. I came home and slept for a few hours. I woke up around 7:30 and felt like shit. I got McDonalds for dinner, that was a bad choice. It was gross. The last time I had fast food was 5 months ago… waaaayyy back during new years and a resolution to not have fast food for the year. I didn’t feel any better. I vegged out on the couch for the last two hours. I’m not tired due to the nap…As a result, I can’t sleep.

I offically called it the end of the snowboarding season last weekend. I didn’t go up to Meadows, and just vegged out instead. It was kind of nice, but apparently very tiring not doing anything.

6″ of new snow this past weekend!

It’s official – Mt. Hood Meadows will be open during the month of MAY! Yes, you read it right: open in MAY. The catch is… they’ll be open during the weekends, and only if there is a minimum of 4,000 people on the mountain per given weekend. Help extend the season! Go snowboarding/skiing during the weekends!

Hrm… this will be excellent for extending the amount of time I have to use my Spring Pass :)

I bought my Spring Pass!! I went up to Mt. Hood Meadows this weekend with Simon, Phong, Long, Lam and his cousin. The snow was pretty decent considering it is April. It was super windy at the top, but really warm and nice out when the sun made a short appearance.

Pictures are from Phong’s camera…
