It took a good day of calls and emails, but Blizzard just got back to us about the rumor floating around that Starcraft 2 will be announced next month during their World Wide Invitation in Seoul, South Korea.

According to a Korean website, StarCraft 2 is being developed in 3D with a new race and lots of changes for existing units. The site went on to say that additional details would be revealed during Blizzard’s WWI on May 19th in Seoul.

My parents bought for my brother and I each a King Coil queen size bed. Our previous bed lasted us for 10 years and the bed frame lasted us for 16 years. The queen size bed cost about $500+ each and it came last Wednesday.

As the bed is pretty big and in order not to make my room looks cramp, I did a major rearrangement to all the furnitures in my room (CD rack, bookshelves, study table, computer table and television stand). I got rid of my old Ikea television stand and bought a new stand from Ikea for $19. I just love Ikea furnitures, it is cheap, good and nice looking. Who cares whether or not it is lasting because you will not use it for that long either. My mom also got 2 executive chairs for us to replace our old chair which lasted for more than 5 years.

Queued up for the doughnuts at Vinco The Donut Parlour which is located at 2nd level of VivoCity before our movie. We queued for like 20 minutes and the doughnuts sucks. It taste so not fluffy and I think the doughnut went on diet. It is overhyped and we are queuing for the inefficiency of the management. Only 1 patethic sales person serving a long queue and there are like 6 people in the kitchen. The sales person has to go in the kitchen to check whether has a certain flavor of doughnut been made yet, so she will make at least 2 to 3 trips per customer, walking in, walking out. And while she is in the kitchen, the customer is there waiting. I can’t think of a better phrase to describe this than “a single core”. I think the management need to wake up its idea.

Caught Fracture on Sunday evening at GV Vivocity, the show is just average, as what LiXiang said, it is a silent triller, but often I think ahead of the movie like the outcome and in the case of this movie, it is quite predictable.

Adobe Creative Suite 3 has finally hit the shelves in stores. There are a total of 6 favors to it.

Just to follow the trend, I have installed Mediawiki into http://wiki.lesterchan.net/. For those who do not know what Mediawiki is, it is the exact same software that powers Wikipedia.

I intend to post some of my stuff there which requires modification often. The only valuable page that so far is my to-do list of my WordPress Plugins.

I love to drink Ice Cafe Latte, next time when I go out to work, I hope there is a Starbucks nearby so I can get to drink it everyday. LOL

My preference of Ice Cafe Latte (from best to worst)

Shooter
Caught Shooter on Sunday night, the show is more than 2 hours long and it was not that bad, slightly above average. The main character of the movie Bob Lee Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) is an aimbot by himself, the movie portray his shot to be almost 100% accuracy, but I wonder whether this is achievable in real life. The movie is about US government conspiracy, I wonder why US government conspiracy is so popular among directors. Prison break is also about US government conspiracy.

My brother told me that Swagger’s partner who died at the start of the show is Tweener (Lane Garrison) of Prision Break. I didn’t realize that.

Caught Sunshine at GV Jurong Point last evening and the show was pure crap. Should have watch Shooter instead as they are not showing The Number 23 instead. I think this is the consecutive 3 times I have watched at GV Jurong Point where I cannot watch in peace. I have no fucking idea why it got to be Jurong Point. This time it is baby crying in the cinema and it is FUCKING ANNOYING on top of a show that is crap. Previously was some fucktards talking at the back of us and again before that was some children keep asking their parents why this and why that.

THEY SHOULD FUCKING BAN KIDS UNDER 6 YEARS OLD FROM GOING TO THE MOVIES. Unless the movie is rated G.
