Seems like my blog entry from last night didn't go through, wtf. Fail! And now since I updated the news already I am not going through all the headlines again LOL Anyway, I did Ubisoft's previews: Shaun White Snowboarding, Far Cry 2, Prince of Persia
Huge work fail today too, I finally got my paycheck, and it sems that now the time i sit around waiting for doctor appointments that are late doesn't count anymore. W... T... F! On top of that, they wrote my name all wrong on the paycheck... Diana Clara? What the hell is that? LOL Fortuntely they know me at the bank, otherwise I'd have to waste a day going downtown to get another cheque and who knows how long that would take to get back to me.
Some fun stuff, I talked to the Witcher assistant producer on Skype today, who said my preview was "cute". Cute? LOL he's super nice though. And then, the community manager promotes me and gives me access to the community site, so now I have my own Kaer Morhen email address
