According to some online dictionaries, “Reak” is a noun which means either “a rush” or “a prank”. It appears that only a few dictionaries can define this word and few examples are given.

But these were all before Vireak.net was born. These dictionaries will probably need to update their database because soon we will know the true definition of “Reak” along with numerous examples as well.

Reak or Vireak?

Both, although I’m more commonly known as Vireak. Reak or ah-reak is what my close friends call me. I’m from Siem Reap and having a slight Siem Reap accent is what differentiates me from Phnom Penh-ers which is something I’m proud of. I use the word “slight” because there are areas in Siem Reap where people have stronger Khmer accent.

Like many students, after my high school at 15, I packed my bag, left Siem Reap for Phnom Penh to seek higher education. I entered ITC (Institut de Technologie du Cambodge) and studied Common Engineering for 2 years before obtaining a full scholarship to study Electrical & Electronics Engineering in NTU, Singapore specializing in Communications Engineering.

At 22 now, I’m a virtually independent man of my own. I use the word “virtually” because I consider myself to be family-oriented.

About this blog

I don’t consider myself to be a blogger. I’ve got a life to live. I have other priorities and updating this blog is only when I’ve got nothing else better to do.

This blog is divided into a number of categories:

1. Reaktivities = Reak + Activities = my activities
2. Forbidden Thoughts = my thoughts and opinions
3. Cambodia & Beyond = things within Cambodia & beyond
4. Untold Scandals = some funny funny and loplop things I have encountered
5. Dreamy Drama = you guess!

The weblog is my personal space to waste my time and to possibly waste other people’s time as well.
