Warning: If you follow the pro BW scene, then this entry contains some spoilers in today's games!!!!

Today my family left home early in the morning, my parents went to work while I went to class. Normally, my mom would return home from work earlier than I do from my class, but today she didn't return home at noon, and told me before we left that she had timed the cooker, so by the time I'm home I'd have something to eat. I went home and everything went perfectly normal until it was time to have lunch. And I realized something ugly, really ugly had happened: My mom had erroneously timed the cooker so that the rice would be finished at 6:00 pm! That means the rice hasn't even been cooked yet at that moment. I had to manually start it all over again, and frantically ran through the kitchen to find whatever I could eat while waiting, and found nothing. So I endured a good 1 hour of feeling like a poor kid who got no meals while the weather was unimaginably cold.

In the afternoon, I went to take a shower. I set the water heater to MAX, and waited 20 minutes. Normally, when the heating was complete the light on the heater would went off, and after that 20 minutes it did. I went into the shower, washed my hair, things went all right with the hot water. But right after I washed my hair HOLY SHIT THE WATER BECAME EXCRUCIATINGLY COLD. I looked at the heater and the light was back on since God knows. I ran completely out of hot water and had to ask my mom to boil me a kettle of hot water (lol) since I would freeze in there if I tried to wait for the heating to finish the second time (but only had to wait several minutes for the kettle lol). I then resumed my "shower" and used up the water inside the kettle. That was when I realized I still have some soap in my butt crack (eww) and thoughts about imitating the acts of the Foul Bachelor Frog immediately flashed through my mind. But no... for I am not a foul bachelor. So with the heater still trying to finish its job, I turned on a tap which leaked hot water as little as Charles Manson's conscience. I sat under it for a while, thinking about the meaning of life...

And at last, the ordeal was over. Finally, BW time! + Show Spoiler +
It started with Hite and STX throwing their players at each other, trading blows until Bogus went out and proved he was more than worthy to become Hwasin's successor by achieving a 3-kill, collecting Hydra, Movie, and Snow's heads in the process (actually I just read the result, because Craton's Ustream lagged terribly on my PC).

But the main course was definitely MBC vs SKT. MBC was trailing 0-2 at start with the scalping of Light and Hyun done by the aspiring By.Sun. Even with their former WL bonjwa vanquished, MBC still had another card - Sea, and sent YBS out. Sea proved to be too much for Sun and then Soo, and even Best himself, on Aztec, a map whose PvT imbalance was alarming. Of course this match had some funny moments as Best pulled a Do Jae Wall and trapped his goons for a while inside his natural (I wonder who deserves to be called 'a goon' more after this match).

But then SKT decided playtime was over and sent Fantasy. Fantasy beat Sea in a longass game on Fortress then proceeded to meet his last challenge, the almighty Hoonster. The game was epic and emotional, and if you missed it you should definitely SEE IT NOW. Even if you have watched it you also should SEE IT AGAIN NOW. I became a Jaehoon fan right after this game.
And as the good BW session of today finishes, now I'm here, writing this blog to sum up a day that began in one of the worst way possible but couldn't have ended better. This was also the first time after a loooooooooong while that I wrote a blog and felt quite happy about it.
