• "I had a dream...
  Part of it reveals a girl whose beauty is striking, confident and sexy.
  She'd go to clubs, flaunt her stuff and she'd make guys swoon.
  In that dream she was my girlfriend,
  But the relationship lacked something.
  Then in another dream I dreamnt of someone who's beauty cannot be explained.
  I don't know her well as much as the previous,
  But she has a gentle understanding nature and touch of righteousness in her.
  In that part of the dream she was a friend,
  And I saw her gently pulled the blanket over me to keep me warm.
  There I felt the relationship didn't lack anything"

  Wierd eh? Didn't expect to dream of these 2 pple.
  One was a girl I met at an Audition at Mediacorp named Diana.
  That's all i know about her. haha,
  but the other's a friend I know... Liya's her name.
  Very interesting how this dream turned out. hahaha..
  Think what it means that I'd want to fall in love with someone who reallys loves me,
  Rather than be drawn to her appearance all the time...

  Days had been tiring for me.
  The past few days of endless work in camp,
  Together with additional overnight duties, Emceeing and hostings to do,
  made 4 days of my week absolutely draining.
  Good thing is that I can look forward to the weekend!
  And of course to my birthday!
  Alas, I've not started to plan anything yet,
   as my mum's temper had been fluctuating unpredictably.
  But still all's been good so far!
  Been keeping in touch with some stuff thru the net.

  
  I've been waiting for this game to be done since 1999. 

  And I've been gaming some new games recently too

  
  Counter-strike condition Zero's awesome. All the maps had been
  enhanced with cool graphics and special effects! Makes everything
  really realistic! the steam u see is a result of rain falling onto the
  hot groun in de_aztec. It has Beautiful AI too!
  
  It's unbelievable. I've never played against such intelligent bots in CS.
  These guys take the cake man.. they actually have tactics and human
  reaction engines! I really wanna know how they programme these robots
  to play in the game...

  Aside from these, I've been indulging in gunbound again.
  Seems like whenever I touch my computer for serious work,
  I end up double-clicking on my games icons.
  It's difficult to resist you know! haha,
  Been doing lots of recordings and music editing for my performance in May.
  Was suppose to perform today at Causeway point tho,
  as an evaluation on my singing skills, whether I'll need further training or something.
  But now, with the high demands they set for me,
  My music's gotta sound more commercially produced,
  so it was very time-consuming to create loops,
  edit and replay a whole sequence when i make a mistake..
  But in the end, when they heard it yesterday they were impressed
  Spent 2 weeks just to remake a 1999 self-composed song..
  Soon, my friends shall hear "December Night 2004"
  composed, arranged, performed and sung by Reuben Wong! 
  Still have to touch on adding "colour" and "varaitions" to the vocals tho.
  Too bad i can't put the song up on the site, cause it's bout 3.9mb mp3.
  Will definitely lag up everything man... hahaha
  so i'll leave my own song "Pure Dream" here..
  till i manage to get the midi stuff to work on my pc.
  Once so, i can create December Night.midi for this site again hehe..

  I want this car...

  

  
  Wow.. that's my style man. Maybe I'll change the honda plate to "~RW~" instead.

  And last night, after my class,
  Sxcavan was screening through our appearance to see if it fits the "star" catagory.
  Some of them will be performing today u see,
  And as a performing artiste, we've gotta look like real stars.
  That's where he cordinated and corrected some of our fashion style.
  He was rather critical on commenting on others,
  on the things they should wear, their hair and all the way to the shoes and earrings.
  Didn't know that he was so knowledgeable in this expect.
  Was totally impressed. Will share this with myt closer friends. hehe..
  As for me, my Jean Jacket, Jeans and shirt combination has "Star appeal" as he said.
  One problem was my hair though.
  "You have the flirt look, but your hair says you're trying to look like you're not one"
  I literally collapsed when i heard that statement.
  Everyone else was laughing of course, but I didn't think it that way!!
  So i asked him, "how do i look flirty then?"
  He said i MUST have longer hair. MUCH longer hair..
  For now, I'll just have to get a Suave look with a long fringe.
  Nothing neat, messy yet cool looking kinda stuff..
  Man, I've got a long way to go! hahahah

  Alrighty! Went to church in the afternoon with dear Liya!
  Pastor Prince preached a tremendously great sermon today.
  About exercising faith by convincing oneself rather than convincing God.
  It really opens up alot of new perspectives and makes everything more clear to me.
  After that, went to Karoke with Liya!
  It was a spontaneous decision tho. haha, but we had loads of fun.
  Finally get to practice singing one of the more vocally demanding songs like "Red Bean"
  Slowly grasping the art of switching my vocal positions more naturally now. heh

  And in the end of it, I'm back home..
  Had a quicky chat with Nicole too, man it's been so long.. and she forgotten my age!
  Horrible girl... Grrr.. hahha
  haiz, the weekend's ending already. Till next time ladies and gentlemen
  Got to study for my Jap Exam!!
  またいましょう。。。
