  • "Everything I see, everything that happens... it is all part of My Story."


    It's D-day.
    The day I pit myself against the devilry before me.
    JLPT4. I should be prepared and ready as a scorpion.
    But.. But.. I lacked the motivation to study. *dang those com games*
    Well, i shouldn't be taking the exam this year though,
    It was meant to be taken next year.. but heck!
    It's all for the experience


    Shared a cab with Jolene to The Japanese School in Changi.
    Seems that it's basic Jap culture to be stringent in security issues.
    We were constantly stopped and checked by the Ushers around,
    and while it was bothersome, it was even more painful to get our way around!
    The place is rather big, though it seemed rather quiet.



    Cool thing was, as we entered the main area,
    We were greated with a very unique Christmas Tree!
    Decorated with cards written by each student from various classes,
    It added a very childish touch to a very solemn place.
    Kinda makes me feel like a kid again seeing all this... Nice Cosy place


    There were tables of stuff where they'd advertise their various CCAs too.
    There were items on display, like Basketballs, Baseball T-shrits..and a cat..
    ??????
    A cat???



    It's sooo Cute!!! Kawaii Desune!
    Like we'd touch and play with it, but it still went on sleeping.
    *Soo Lazy!*
    Usually they'd scram the moment they realised something's around,
    but this cat just went on sleeping all the way!
    Gotta be a school cat... Nonetheless, a very cute cute one!


    And so I proceeded to my Test room on the 2nd floor.
    I didn't know this place was a PRIMARY school for Jap Kids until...


    I was told to take a seat...



    I tell ya.. it was a very small seat!


    Cool thing was, it had such a Jap atmosphere!
    You had to remove your shoes outside...
    And when you step into the air-conditioned room,
    You see a whole lot of Japanese stuff!
    Text, posters and individual photos of each student.
    Their bags and pencil boxes are all kept prim and neat under their desk,
    And and.. i don't know. You just can sense so much Love!
    I want to be a Jap Student too..


    Anyway the exam was a REAL challenge!
    Not doubt it's just JLPT4, but my my..
    The listening compre just killed me.
    I'd be happy to manage a clean pass. heh..
    And so, it's bye bye to "The Japanese School" of Changi...



    After that, had a CRAZY time with my brudas.
    We went Christmas shopping! for various "Projects" equipment too
    Spent about $100 on clothing at Topshop too.
    I just had to buy the Jeans and shirt. It's a new look for me!
    I'll snap up a picture if i wear it out ya?
    A little scandalous, but i think it's just fun and humour. heh..
    Then at Bugis.. I saw this!



    Just had to take it.. really like her look.
    Has the Rinoa Heartily element, and a touch of sweetness too
    The look i really like in a girl.. hahaha.



    And this Spiderman 2!!! I love the Oakley Glasses! hahaha..


    Ok sorry if i've been taking too many out of point pictures.
    But hey, it's free when you buy a digital camera and have a blog ya?
    So here's the last picture for the day.
    A lovely Jigsaw puzzle i stumbled across at Suntec.
    Behold.. a view that I'd love to see with someone special

  • "Everything that has a beginning.. Has an End"


    Similarly, my fluttery feelings of hope had diminished.
    Not with intent but due to unforseen perceptive discussions.
    Had a ICQ chat with Christina just today via the handphone..
    And it's also through Paul and Jaslyn where I get to be more open minded bout certain stuff.
    Like some things may not be what they seem to be.
    Or to be more adequately plain...
    One should never be too narrowminded.
    For it can cloud one's judgement.
    Well like what we discussed,
    I shall address to this concern swiftly.
    Although I wish not to do so to an extent,
    It's something I have to do, for the benefit of us.
    You see sometimes when we can't see past the choices we don't understand,
    We should do something about it rather than let nothing happen.


    The day didn't start out too well too.
    I left my wallet at home when my Dad dropped me off at Camp.
    Gosh, without my 11B (equivalent of an Identity Card), I could not enter the camp!
    I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and went on with Faith.
    And it was this Faith i have in God that always lets everything fall into place.
    The Regimental Police did not stop me.. in fact they were sympathetic.
    I couldn't scan into the system without my 11B as well, meaning there'll be no record of my attendance for the day.
    Usually when my CSM gets to know about this, one would be punished.
    I went on with Faith.
    Almost Miraculously, CSM told me to carry on as usual.
    He didn't even sound displeased or grumpy!
    Wow...  God is Good man. Cool too...


    Went to Plaza Singapura for Dinner at Ichiban Sushi with my parents!
    Ugh, I've just been there not too long ago.. haha
    But it's still an awesome place.
    The place's bustling with activity,
    Not to mention hords of shoppers and Party Goers..
    And I tell you, Ichiban Sushi's a very lovely place!



    I love the setting.. the lighting's so..pleasant!



    Do try this dish if you can ya? It's really nice



    At first when I saw the menu, I was thinking... It probably just looks good here. Think it'll be served on a simple plate and in a messy Way...

    I was wrong... Mmmm


    And thus we went shopping for stuff and all..
    And I saw this huge soft toy on display! Had to take the picture hehe.. Cause..



    Much like Mr.Pooh here, I already feeling very tired. heh. No work tmw! Woopee!!


    Anyways, I'll most probable get my own controlled produce CD soon.
    It'll be quite fun to have a CD of my own songs and my own pics and stuff.
    Hopefully, can finish my recordings at the studio before Christmas..
    So that I can give the first 10 copies to 10 very special people!
    On the other hand, if I have another upcoming song to add to the CD,
    Production will be delayed, so anyway...
    Can't wait to get my CD produced! mwahaha..

  • Yesterday... I had one of the most Magical moments of my life.


    Seemed so perfect.. so natural and fine.


    As much as I want to write this down I can't
    Because there are somethings that words cannot tell.
    So here's a picture to tell you what i feel..
    On that day I got romanced on the day I melt.



    Alas all good things must come to an End.
    Till when shall I see you again?


    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    If you had wings... Would you Fly?
    If it makes you feel like you're in another world... Would you Fly?
    If your wings were hurt and you never know when they'll be fine...


    Would you still Fly?


    These are the exact feelings I had today.
    It was games day at my company (Army) and we were required to sign up with games.
    My dearest friends would know that Basketball's a fav game of mine.
    Because back then, I could Fly.
    Or maybe to me, I felt that I could fly..
    I felt that I could vanish past my opponent, and streak towards the basket.
    And the look of their awed faces pleased me.
    That was what Basketball was to me.
    It could make time stop, make me fly, and give me speed.


    However, with the recent knee operation I had.
    I was told to avoid any form of streneous activity concerning my legs.
    Jumping, running, squatting was a  no no. And I stood firm to that until..
    Until today, when i decided to join a little friendly game.
    I thought to myself ,"I can just shoot right? I won't run or jump and it should be fine."
    But you all know me. My brudas would know what kind of guy I am.
    If I had the chance to use it, I'd give my all to play it.
    I didn't this time, and i was confusingly glad by it.
    But I did jump a little, and maybe tried to sprint a little.
    But without the jumping and speed, my form was completely gone.


    The game ended and i managed to get 2 out of the 5 point my team had.
    We lost that match, though friendly but still a loss.
    But just as I was about the get a thirst quincher,
    A senior specialist in my company jokingly said...
    "So many cool moves, but still lose"
    It was there and then, that for once I felt defeated.
    Losing a match because a gave my best is one thing...
    But losing it because you can't give your best is another
    .
    There I stood looked at my knee and wondered why i played in the first place.


    Maybe it's best I leave and forget the sports I used to be good at.
    Maybe then, people will remember me not as the guy who had a knee operation,
    But as someone who exceedingly surpassed many in that sport.
    Would it be better to be remembered as a Legend?
    Or as someone who pple always looked up to because of my abilities?
    Or would it be better to play it again,
    but be forgotten and plainly classed as just another player?


    Which path would you choose?


    If you had wings... Would you Fly?
    If it makes you feel like you're in another world... Would you Fly?
    If your wings were hurt and you never know when they'll be fine...


    Would you still Fly?

  • What a wonderful day...


    ACT 1 SCENE 1


    Enter Reuben in Levi's Jean Jacket & Girl with Orange Hair


    My dad specially fetched me all the way to the Singapore Expo.
    And when I got there I paced over to Hall 4B
    Reaching there I looked around seeking something...
    Sadly, I was unsuccessful.
    I reached to my handphone and dialled that number,
    A woman answered to give me directions.
    I followed her instruction and walked onwards.


    I saw her, called out to her, and smiled...


    Then I turned away, going back to where i came from.
    Satisfied from what I've seen.
    Grateful for the chance I've been given.
    It was a nice to see her


    ACT 2 SCENE 1


    Enter Paul and Reuben


    After coming from the Expo, Me and Paul decided to meet up before Jerry joins us.
    Met him at Tiong Bahru where he told me about his latest problem.
    As much as i'd like to reveal it, i can't.
    But he's not gay...
    It's been cool, went to buy tix for LOTR!!! Finally! something to look forward to,
    And suddenly my flare for wierd photgraphy sparked again.
    I looked at the ceiling to find a "UFO" brightly lit with many colours.. heh



    Cool right? heh
    And then I requested that he helped me take a pic of my pendant.



    I think this is the nicest pendant I've ever had. Mwahahha..
    Oh and another thing...



    I had to take this picture. Because... It freaks me out. haha


    ACT 2 SCENE 2


    Enter Jerry, Jane, Paul and Reuben


    And then something happened that didn't happen in a long time.
    The 4 of us were together again.
    I mean, I was really happy to finally see our friendship return.
    Don't know how different it really is now, but I'm grateful for the progress.
    It felt right. Like normal too.. and because of that, we had much fun just being ourselves.
    Paul would crap about lame stuff..
    Jerry would complain that Paul's crapping, then he craps as well..
    Jane laughs and craps too..
    And I just think it's silly.. then crap much later on.
    So crappy! ugh! hahaha.. but we had loads of fun.


    We hanged out at Suntec..where we went window shopping.
    And shopping is Bad for Reuben, esp when it's Xmas.
    I bought the DVD "Edward Scissorhands" because it's worth watching over and over.
    Bought gifts for friends too! Well, more for the special ones. heh.
    I can't say anything about them tho! wouldn't be a surprise if i did!
    All i can say is.. Christina? Nicole? Watch out. Mwahaha...


    And we went to the pet shop in Suntec too!
    That's where we all went "Awww" and "Oooo"
    I mean, the dwarf hamsters were soooo cute! Really!
    I'd probably buy them on the spot if i was feeling crazy enough. haha...



    And here's the Rabbit I snapped up too! heh..



    Aren't they simply adorable? You should've been there..


    ACT 3 SCENE 1


    Enter Paul and Reuben then Jerry


    And now, even as I'm writing this Paul's at my place.
    My 2 best pals are going to spend the night at my place!
    Thought stuff like that happens only during school days.
    Man, I was so wrong. hahaha..
    Going to watch Kill Bill too! Paul's brought the VCD.
    Totally uncencored and stuff. I can expect guts flying everywhere..Yuck.
    But that's what Jap sword fighting is about right? hahaha...
    Anyway, that's all folks! Wonder what's ahead of my next week.


    ACT 3 SCENE 2


    I head a loud thud at my door.
    It was Paul. I looked at the clock. 10am.
    WHAT? 10 am???


    On sunday morning (effectively at 12am), Paul and moi were playing Gunbound.
    Dang that game's addictive. Cute as it may be, it's gotten on pretty fast in singapore.
    Don't be fooled by it's cute appearance. It takes skill and planning to play it.
    Come come! Join us in our united effort to spread the good will of Gunbound.
    www.gunbound.net
    And while he was using his account on my com,
    I got busy changing "dresses/garments" on Final Fantasy X-2
    It's totally bad. It lacks all the essence of the Traditional Final Fantasy games. Eee


    Kill Bill was gross. But cool. Really. That is called cinema.
    But alas, Jerry fell asleep on the floor while watching.
    I got so tired I spilled all the chips on the floor.
    And Paul's like "So cool! So cool!" kinda look... haha


    And so the night passed and before I knew it, I woke up.
    Jerry left for his Driving lessons tho, so Paul and I readied to go to Church.
    Except.. we didn't go to Church.
    He's still feeling troubled abt his "Personal Issue" and I guess the least i could do is accompany him.
    And thus we Bunged, High-angle-shot-ed, Dual-Plused, and gained GP at a LAN shop in Cineleisure. hahaha 
    Ended up going to Town where I saw... *gasp*
    Christina's Ad in Wisma Atria!!!



    Ain't she pretty? Christina.. Wow. hahahha  Looks like her huh? heh

November 26, 2003

  • Oh my oh my oh my... I've been sooo busy lately! Strange huh? Considering I'm only in NS and all. Well It's been rather long since I've updated my blog.. so i'll try to sum it up.


    It's been an awefully long time since i've met my brudas.
    One's busy with studying, the other's busy with Self-conflict and Girl problems.
    And I have also been busy with studying and settling stuff at home.
    Finally had the chance to go out though..
    Paul's crazy. Think he's turning into a Glutton. hahaha... kiddin.
    And Jerry's still got that Wakka hairdo. Ugh.. these mad pple!
    Drive me crazy they do! but that's why it's soOo fun. heh




    Nice? haha... pictures i took while we were at Cineplex.
    I honestly wished that time wasn't against us.. there's so much more to discuss.
    About University, Love, the Army, Games and a possible X'mas party at my place!


    Ahhh went out with her during the public holiday.
    She's always so Last Minute! Horrible! hahaha
    But I guess I could make some exceptions for special pple.
    We met for a snack where we talked about serious stuff to mere nothings.
    I think I wasn't paying attention to the dialogue though.
    I couldn't.
    She was awefully very distractingly Pretty.
    Well and soon after we caught a movie "Love Actually"


    *WE INTERUPT YOU FOR THIS INTERMISSION. PLEASE GO WATCH "LOVE ACTUALLY". IT IS A BEAUTIFUL SHOW.*


    It's Awwwwsome! I mean, it gives a Christmas feel and widens one's perspective.
    It also teaches pple to fight for what they want, or in this case, who they love.
    Because living in regret ain't worth it when u had the chance to show it.
    Anyway, After that we got on the train to attend her friend's party.
    The train was crowded and we had to stand rather close together.


    .......


    ....


    ..


        


    I melted...


    ..


    ....


    ........


    or to be accurate... i felt like this...



    And so we went on to the party where i got to mingle with pple
    Not to mention that they are like 3 years younger than me?
    I felt a little old.. haha rather reserved to. Like i had to watch what i say?
    Because if they knew the REAL Reuben, they'd think i'm mad. hahaha
    Think only Paul and Jerry know what i'm talking about.
    We chatted, ate a bit and i enjoyed my time there. It was swell man..
    And thus the day ended with fond memories of her close to me... i slept smiling.
    WwweeeEEEEeeEEEeeee


    Ever felt like you were stuck somewhere? Like in a Jam? Sometimes i feel that way.
    At home I can't do the things I wanna do because my mum detest it.
    Just bought my highly anticipated Final Fantasy X-2
    But...
    I can't play it.
    I can't play anything i desire as long as my Mum is around Makes it rather sickening! Sounds wierd huh? I mean many pple think too highly of me, or think i'm having everything so good and perfect. Alas, it wasn't meant to be.
    I have been caged in my home because I can't do the things i enjoy.
    Playing the piano is bad, playing games is bad, turning my computer on = playing games to my mum, watching DVDs are bad. Listening to songs are bad.
    To my Mum, all that's important is..


    Reading the Newspapers.


    I can understand why she thinks that way. She had it tough back in those ancient days.
    English is very important too... but.. sometimes her approach is rather Aggressive.
    I call my Mum, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"
    There's a dominating presence whenever she's around.
    Sounds bad?
    Actually not that bad.. u see, perhaps if she wasn't the way she was with me,
    I may have turned out very differently. Who can say? Only God can... I may complain, or even think that my life could've been better without her, but hey..
    God has his reasons. And his plans are always perfect for us.


    Sometimes I cannot understand why certain pple come into my life..
    Why certain things happen be it Good or bad.
    But that is not for us to decide.
    What we must decide is what to do with the Time given to us.
    And to learn to understand God's intentions for us.
    Because through him we are living in the world,
    but no of the world.

  • I have returned! I have to sincerely apologize for taking sooo long to update my blog ya?
    Anyway, I'll sum up what's been happening lately.. Good or Bad you decide


    Remember a long time ago I made a song called Kuresuteina's theme?
    And I even bought a Star Pendant and stuff...
    It was all for this girl that I've met.
    It's been quite some time now, and I'm totally grateful for her presence in my life.
    Can't wait for Christina to return! She's really a great friend.
    Someone I'd consider as one of my best friends too.
    "Pure Dream"'s a tribute to her as well.
    If you're reading this, I miss your awwness girl! haha come back soon!
    By the way, I was walking down town today and I thought I saw you on an ad!
    Way Past Cool


    And just recently, I've gotten to know a new person too!
    Well relatively new I guess and we can relate very well considering her age
    Hmm who's that girl next to Reuben? Rare huh? hahaha..





    "The Day I fell in Love? "


    She's such a gem! Looks so pretty and captivating.
    I mean.. she took my eyes of the Matrix:Revolutions???
    When would Reuben ever look away from the screening of the Matrix?
    Never could, don't think he would. But he did... on that faithful day
    And Reuben really misses her presence. It's so nice to have ther company.
    Like magical and sensational! I mean, it makes ya wanna see her more.
    Something like that I guess.. don't know if i'll ever see her again though.
    Anyway, I had so much fun that day! Thanks ya?
    Well can't reveal her picture though. All the guys would just swoon and stalk her.
    Which explains why she's such an attraction.. even to girls! haha
     Hey, but u gotta reply to my sms! So difficult to contact you.


    And here's what I did today.. Went to Attend the FITS Seminar at Trader's Hotel!




    The Ball Room was soooo nice! The ambience was superbly romantic!
    Which doesn't help when I realised there were only 4 guys in the class of 30?
    Odd thing is though, that everyone seems so old and mature!
    My mum sent me for this course.
    Starts at 8.30am till 5pm man.. called FITS (Financial Intelligence training)
    Organised by AWARE? A organisation supporting women's rights.
    Problem is.. I was wearing this shirt with these words...


    "So Many Women, So Little Time"


    I had the feeling all the women were hurling vulgarities in their minds or something
    Thankfully, there weren't judgemental. In fact they were very nice!
    I learnt so much about investments today.
    About financial planning and seeking out to make money work for me
    It was so interesting! And with my previous experience with Robert Kyosaki,
    It made it an ease when it came to the games section in the afternoon.
    I was given a character to play "Rina - a 29 professional"
    And with her I'm suppose to make money..
    In the End, I made $1,152,114.44 in 5 months!
    Haha, I even got proposed by a woman playing Eric! haha.. fun fun
    More importantly is, I've learnt something and with it.. i can do more


    Anyway, That's that.
    Gotta go to work tmw from 8 to 6.
    Wonder what I can do after that.. Ugh.
    Anyway here's a list of my schedule in case my dear friends calls me out
    Remember to book early! Like 3 days in advance? haha

  • "Are there more machines coming later?" said Elocin
    "haha keep watching.. " I said.



    WeeeEEEEeeeeEEEE



    "Why Mr Anderson? Why Why Why?"



    "See past the Flesh and know your Enemy"


    Haha this weekend's been different! Had my fair share of fun too.
    Was supposed to go to Centrall mall, but in the end, i went over to MS where this cute japanese team were playing traditional songs. Also went over to madam Wong's too. Got a chance to play some soccer game thingie and yeah.. haha.
    Sunday night's are soooo eeriely quiet there! So in the end, my new found acquintances, the beauty and I hoped on the cab to go to Holland Village.


    Being back there really brought back memories.
    The place looks rather different now. But it's still very happening and all.
    Ended up sitting and chatting at the "Wala Wala" Bar. hahaha sounds so.. wala-ish. cool
    There was a pair of live guitarist performing though.. but soon it got draggy.


    Sunday didn't end with a bang or whatever.
    But it was the beginning of a Magical Experience


    WeeeEEEEeeEEEeeee...........


    Monday was different though. It was memoreable.
    Perhaps one of the nicest things was to teach or just be next to "Elocin"
    She was so eager to learn, and I had to be too willing to teach.
    For before long, I've become captivated by her.
    Very rare considering I've seen many girls.
    But alas, not surprising. Before me, there must had been many who tried.


    We talked about stuff, walked the talk, even just sit down to chat.
    And it was so refreshing! Feels rather nice to be in her company
    Anyway, I'm sure I'll be seeing more of her though.
    There's so much to say and share, but so little time.
    Wherever she is now, I hope she's fine.
    We watched the Matrix too. (It was my 3rd time already)
    But I ended up watching something else half the time. hahaha..


    Indeed it was a moment to remember..

  • So Happy!!! Woopee! Yay! Yada Yada! Yabadaba Doo!!!
    I've just finished my ultimate song creation.
    Didn't know it'll turn out this well, and I'm convinced it beats all my other songs.
    Anyway, will update the blog tmw. Going to SOS centrall mall.

    To Paul: You Buta! Anata wa amari shinsetsu dewa arimasen desune! Urusai! Anata wa watashi no tomodachi desukara, Ishyo ni SOS o ikimasu deshyo. Sore wa Kumarimashitane....


    Yup, off to Central mall! My best pal was suppose to accompany me. Played me out again. I hate being played out. Stupid Paul. Ugh! I hope i'll have a good time there..

  • ACT ONE SCENE 2:
    Reuben Wong:


    "Return to me oh Ring of Power!
    For I have missed the feeling of you.
    The beauty of Silver lingers on my hand
    Not wanting to let you go I will"



    Want to know how I got it back? It's a miracle I tell you.
    So today hear my testimony of God's power and be awed!


    I came back on Wednesday night, frantically searching for my Ring.
    I searched everywhere.
    Got down on the floor to prowl around,
    Used the Torchlight to hope to see a shimmer of reflection.
    Went under the Bed sheet covers and stuff.
    Nothing.


    So I prayed.


    "God I am powerless now
    I cannot do much to undo the paths of time.
    Neither can I summon my ring to return to me.
    But Lord, You can.
    For you made me in the perfect way,
    and brought me this far in your perfect plan,
    I know that by your promise,
    I can do all things through Christ.
    So now I seek you, to help me.
    Show me my ring, bring it to me.
    Let it drop from the sky, or make it roll to me.
    For I know that through you it will return to me.
    And my Faith tells me that it will.
    Amen"


    And so I decided to sleep knowing and assured that it shall be returned. Just as i was about to doze off, I felt a strange prompting telling me to touch my black shorts resting on my towel. I looked at them. They were resting on my towel resting on the clothes bar.
    I was thinking,"... I want to sleep. What could possibly happen if i touch it?"
    I really wanted to sleep.. but the more i think about it, The more I wonder what would happen if I didn't touch it. And thus, I climbed out of my bed, dragged myself across the room, switched the lights on, and touched the black pants.


    *Ping ping ping...*


    There in the Dark of Night, I witnessed the sparkle of a miracle.
    I knelt down to pray and Thank God
    And I smiled to myself, no longer surprised for the miracles he had shown me.
    For sometimes we take things into our own hands
    And rely too much on our own strengths.
    "Not by might, nor by power, but by the Spirit of God"
    That's where my strength is.
    And it is this strength that makes me more than Reuben Wong.
    I am in the World, but not of the world.



    Mwahaha I am invincible through Christ!
