Ok, I seem to have this pretty bad habit of being late... Ever since the start of this year I think, I kept being late for so many meetings and stuff... Feeling quite annoyed with myself... Guess I'll have to force myself to be on time for stuff already, starting from tomorrow... Haiz...
School posting results are coming out in few hours, good luck to all!!

After that, walked around J8 with Manfred, Charlton, Leonard, Jerold and Eugene Ang... Jon, Wy and Boon Siang went to Eugene's house... Sorry I couldn't join you guys... Spent some time with another lot of my classmates... We kind of camped at Macs and talked all the way... Bumped into Nick Chee at Comics connection... Then bumped into Bryan Ng and Eunice at Macs as well... Haha... Also saw one of the Sec 2s... Obviously he didn't want to see me... Haha... XD Talked for damn long... In the end, went to Bishan market for dinner with Jerold and Charlton... After that came home...
Trip to Perth was kind of ok... Honestly, there weren't exactly any plans on what to do when we got there, resulting in "nothing really much being done"... Haha... Ok, there were some little talks about migrating and all that in the future, but I'll disregard it cause I'll just stay here in Singapore for now... Haha... Ok random...
Today didn't turn out to be a very good day for me in a way... Could say I was a little cranky, most probably not because of the lack of sleep, I dunno... Somehow, I got quite easily ticked off by some people when they said stuff... Then my mind was also kind of clogged up as well, couldn't really think properly... Really sorry if anyone was on the receiving end of my irritable self today... Guess this is the similiar feeling that I got just before I went for D'08... Maybe juts before something totally new I'll end up feeling like that? JC starts next week, so well... Maybe it's just me...
Ok, on a random note, I've been having funny dreams lately... There was one night when I dreamt about handling a situation with troublesome juniors... Another one whereby I was a computer game character and I needed to kill a large bunch of monsters and stuff... Oh well, stupid -.- Yeah, anyway, there were some things that were being discussed lately and they kind of triggered thoughts, ok won't go into details, but they were just mainly thoughts that kept bugging me, even though I've been trying to get them out of my head (since who know's when)... Oh well... Then of course, when I think of some stuff, I guess I'm just a freakin hypocrite in more ways than one... Most people end up making such mistakes though, don't they?
Ok, another thing, I seriously need to "grow up" in a sense... I'm still kind of ignorant of stuff, even at my age, when people like my brother know tons of stuff more than I do... And I'm not talking about knowledge or something, I'm talking about stuff like maybe some housework, some skills here and there... I admit I don't really do housework... One perfect example was while in Perth, there was an afternoon whereby my mum was preparing some food for the potluck that we were having in the evening at Aunty Betty's parents' house... My brother was helping my mum a bit in preparing the food... What was I doing? I was upstairs, using the com and reading comics -.- Seriously, I think I'm a total slob and all that... I've been too much of an idiot and an ignorant fool... I seriously need to start tuning mindset or I'll never be able to survive in the future... I need to learn how to be more of an adult rather than a kid already... -.- Grow up Bryan

Hope everyone will be enjoying themselves over these few days for CNY... Don't pig out too much people!! Haha... A few days more and I'll be back =D Look forward to the class gathering and all that too... On a random note, I miss CNY goodies!!! xD
Happy Birthday Eunice!

Happy Birthday Mick!!
Tuesday, January 20, 2009
This morning, woke up damn early (like 7:20am, it's considered early at the moment) to pass Zikai the tennis rackets and balls that wanted to borrow, as usual I was late -.- Went back to sleep, then woke up at dunno what time... Spent the afternoon trying to pack some of my stuff... Then in the evening went out for dinner with Jonathan, Eugene, Wai Yinn and Boon Siang... Ate at some pasta store... Forgot the name... After that we went to walk around... Some people don't change really -.- Still as violent as ever... Another says unnecessary stuff and asks to be whacked -.- Ok whatever.... Had a pretty fun time walking around and stuff... I actually went to splurge on a Haagen Daz ice cream... Tiramisu flavour =D Shiok... On the way back, got seperated from the rest while boarding the train... I didn't board cause it was too crowded, then they waited for me at the next stop, but couldn't get on... Haha... Damn funny... Met at Bishan, thn we split up...
Anyway, I realised today marks the one month anniversary for all from D'08 as CIs... So fast one month le, what's to come in our CI-ship? Oh well...
There's been some stuff on my mind, maybe I'll talk about them when I come back, if I can remember them that is... Bye people

For the Charlie chalet, it was quite a bit of a headache doing the planning and stuff due to one reason or another... I admit I didn't really do much at times... Whatever the case, I'm really glad that it turned out well... Thanks all for coming =) Thanks Ivan, Ain, Pan, Melvin and any others who were involved in the planning... =D
Rushed down to CHS, attended the CCA orientation... My cadet uniform was used... Everything on it was real... Haha... Except for the SI rank, that is... The store has 7 pairs of SI ranks?? Haha... Thought of changing to full u after a while, but then realised that I had double iron lines on my pants -.- So up till now, I've not worn my uniform yet, with the new rank that is... Oh well... Not a big issue... After that, can't remember what I did... Then went to eat with Rebecca Ma'am, Desmond sir, Joseph, Joshua and Adeline at Macs...
Came home after that, settled some stuff, then went to Leon's house for the stayover... Didn't make it for the barbeque.... Then played a bit, crapped a bit etc etc... Pretty fun... His parents were very accomodating... Thanks Aunite and Uncle! I did sleep quite early though... Like 12+am I already knocked out... Must have been the chalet... Haha... Woke in the morning, stoned, played etc... Then went to the pool for a while... Didn't really want to swim initially... In the end, I got thrown in by the rest -.- Oh well... Lunch came late cause the delivery guy was apparently involved in an accident... Hope he was okay... Left Leon's place at about 5+pm... Thanks Leon for everything =D Last few gatherings of the clique with Eugene around though, since he's going to Melbourne to study... Oh well...
Today, went to Sentosa with 4A people... I woke up like damn late -.- Reached there, met the rest... Talked, played stuff like beach soccer... Got thrown into the water AGAIN... That makes it twice in 2 days... Haha... Oh well... Had a great time there... Got to meet up with people I've not seen for like what 6 years? Haha... Thankfully there weren't many awkard pauses... Think the best part was dinner... We went to some coffee shop in AMK... Ordered from one stall called Aston's, recommended by Melvin... Food was good... Then we ended up talking about Primary school times mainly, reminiscing the past... It was seriously damn fun, laughing like mad over the retarded stuff that happened last time... Haha... We even talked about some of the classmates we remembered, all the random and maybe eccentric stuff here and there... Ended up talking for like 3 hours or so? We split at about 10:30pm or something... Haha... Then I discovered quite a number of people living in the area sia... Lynette, Melvin and Melissa I know, then Siyun and Jocelyn also stay pretty near... Haha... Coincidence sia... Oh well... Really enjoyed the gathering, credits to I think Zhaoming and Melvin for planning the event? Look forward to the next one! =D
Ok, I'll post pics about chalet and the gathering some other time perhaps... Bye people

Hi all... Update about the week's events... Monday collected results... Was trying to get myself mentally prepared, shunning some people here and there, went to the general office, saw my name on the leaderboard!! 7A1s!!! Was super super happy, like couldn't believe it! Almost collapsed in shock... Haha... Jon, Chris and Leon and got 7A1s... Congrats guys... Kah Hoe got 9A1s!!! Imba!!! Nice one lah!!!! =) Congrats to all those like Hua Peng, Yap Chien, Jerold etc for scoring really great grades! Yeah, went in to the hall... School did pretty ok, some improvements here and there, some deprovements also, but what the heck, generally happy for most... Got my results slip from Mr Thomas, got 6 points!! Couldn't believe it, seriously didn't expect to get anywhere close to it... Man... When my Mum called she went like "Wah!!" into the phone... Lol... Then Wei Yu also kept calling me... Next thing I knew I ended up getting tons of calls/sms from various people, including my great aunt... Haha... Went to thank all my teachers... Then was supposed to eat with NP people, but ended up finishing whatever I needed to do late... -.- Sorry guys... Ended up going to Eugene's house... Original intention was to visit him cause he didn't really do to his expectations... We ended up staying there and playing/sort of celebrating... o.0 Ok, weird but true... Haha... Oh yah, I still can't believe I got my A1 for Geography, since I remember screwing up my papers very badly, especially Physical Geog... Haha...
Anyway, this O level journey had seriously been a long one... There were many struggles throughout the whole thing, especially during those times when I could not reach my goals and felt like giving up... In a way, luckily my library sessions (some productive and some unproductive) paid off... Yay... To cut it short, I seriously want to to thank all those who've played a part in helping me in this O level journey... Big thanks to my teachers, especially my Sec 4 teachers... Thank you Mr Thomas, Mr Quay, Miss Saras, Mrs Tan, Mr Fernandez, Mrs Goh, Mr Talib, Mrs Yap, Mrs Tang, Mdm Wong and Mdm Mu Jun for all that you've done for us!!! CHS teachers seriously rock =D I'm really grateful to have them to guide us...
To those who've done well for the O levels, congratulations, continue to work hard and achieve greater things =) For those who didn't do as well as they desired, don't give up, there's more to life than just studies and results... I quote this from Melvin: As long as you don't throw away the pen, you'll still have words to write...
Ok, then after the so called celebration at Eugene's house, went to J8 Swensens to meet Area 4 people to celebrate Priscilla's birthday... Quite a fun event... Lamed around with Melvin Lee here and there, after that bought bubble tea then sat at the playground and talked for damn long... Haha... Tuesday, met Wen Qi and Melvin to go to army market... Was like 1.5 hours late from the intended meeting time due to some last minute matters... Sorry guys... Went to eat at beach road, then we walked around finding stuff... Finally got a new name tag =) Didn't spend very long there... After that, went to Marina Square to walk around and stuff for a while... We even went to KFC to eat again... Haha... After that, took train down to Yishun and went to Clifton's house... Met Kah Hoe and Leonard who were there as well... Discussed a bit of JAE, which proved to be a headache... Stayed there for like 20 mins, then went to AMK... Walked around a bit, came home about 8+pm... Quite an enjoyable evening for the last part =) Did spend most of the day travelling about though...
Wednesday, met Kah Hoe, Leonard, Jun Wei and Wei Rong at Bishan market... Was late again... -.- Then we went to the RJC open house together... One RJ guy took us around at first... After that Troy brought us around... Saw the whole campus... Damn nice... Saw a lot of CHS people as well... Saw some seniors such as Alvin and Zheng Jun... Big thanks to Troy for bringing us around =) After that Kah Hoe, Leonard, Wei Shian and myself took a bus down to NJC... Then we managed to get Ryan Han to bring us around the place... Place is not bad, not as new as RJC, but it's still nice... Saw Alvin and Shaun there... We met Daryl Chan as well... Haha... Thanks guys for helping us =) After that, we went to HCJC... Though everyone was kind of tired, so we left quite quickly... Took a bus back... Went to CHS with Wei Shian... Was supposed to go down for training initially, but only reached there at like 5+pm... So well... =/ Talked with the NCOs for a while before leaving...
Came home, thought about the JAE thingy, it was seriously a pain thinking about them, cause my parents asked me to consider the top 2 JCs (i.e RJC and HCJC), so I was trying to decide what to put and whether I should even put them in in the first place... After numerous calls and discussions here and there, my choices were as such: RJC, HCJC, NJC, VJC, AJC, SAJC, NYJC, CJC... So well... There's a slim chance that I'll be accepted into RJ or HC since my points don't exactly meet the cut off (i.e 3 points, I got 4).... Furthermore a lot of people are applying for VJC... So I'll most probably end up in either NJC or AJC... Haha... No problem though, I'll be pretty much contented with them =) Was supposed to go for Charlie chalet that night, but I only finished my JAE at like midnight? Couldn't go in the end...
Will blog about the Charlie chalet and stuff in the next post... For now, some random pics
Cousins (the guys) + Uncle during New Year countdown celebrationCousin Wei Yu... He looks damn stoned... Haha...

Monday, January 12, 2009
Wasn't so sure about going for the NPAP selection after that, cause of the latest problems in the unit and also a sudden worry when Yong Sheng informed us that the bookings for the chalet could not be made... Was also very tired for one thing... So I sort of told myself, I'll go if I can wake up... Woke up at about 11+am... Yeah, so sort of gave up the dream for now... Maybe there might be a another chance if they're still short of trainers?? Yah anyway...
Ok, can't remember what I did before I went for the 6D chalet... Left home in the late afternoon, reached Aranda country club at about 5+pm... Quite a number of people were there already... Helped in some of the preparations of the things... Big thanks to the twins who helped marinate the chicken wings... Oh yeah, damn funny thing was that You Yue and gang forgot to buy a lighter when they bought the charcoal and firestarters... Haha, I actually swore out loud in front of everybody a few times during the chalet, dunno why... Not they type of person who usually does this... Sorry guys... Anyway, took some time for our fire to start... Credits to Roymond who helped in getting the fire ready and doing most of the cooking... Yeah, thanks to quite a few people that the whole thing actually got going... Well... Never mind, I don't want to comment... Whole thing was pretty fun, some random stuff here and there, like You Yue entertaining us with some singing... Haha... Nick Chee, Jedidah, Qiu en and Yisin came... Yisin hardly talked... Haha... Anyway, nice to see everyone again (for those who went)... Big thanks to You Yue's parents who brought the food and all that along... Thank you Uncle and Auntie!! Most of the people (mostly the girls+mingwoon) left at around 11+pm... Rest of us, went back to the room... Justin, Roymond, Yan Rui(I think) and Jedidah played Mahjong with Nick Chee and Wen Rui watching... You Yue, Chye Ping, Wei Shian and myself played stuff like taidi and blackjack, some of our punishments were push-ups and stuff... Haha... Then played truth or dare... And Justin had a very interesting question for me... Haha... Then played another game something like truth or dare except with cards, and there was only a dare available... Tio a lot of times, and I think I get one of the most jia lat forfeits... Had to bite on piece of otah at one end with Yan Rui biting on the other end (since she also ended up needing to do the forfeit) -.- Oh well... Damn funny... Haha... Anyway, quite a bit a of random stuff here and there for the entire night... At one point of time, we went to Cheers to get some stuff, then they thought I was crazy when I said I wanted to walk to Pasir Ris Mrt station and back... Haha... I did complete the walk... Didn't sleep at all till morning... Nick Chee went to church... Then Chye Ping, You Yue and I accompanied the twins and Jedidah to KFC to grab some breakfast, then they left, 3 of us went back to the chalet room... Went to sleep for a while... You Yue's parents came, helped us to check out... Thanks auntie and uncle! Thanks to all those who helped in organizing the chalet!! Took 58 to Bishan with Chye Ping and Wei Shian.... Then had lunch with Wei Shian at J8...
After that, met a friend, then came home and went out again -.- Played bowling with Cliff, JW and Leonard at SCC... Quite a few exciting matches... Great fun... Played a bit of pool also... After that came home, then slept at like 6+pm? Haha...
And yeah woke up this morning at about 5+am, couldn't get back to sleep... Right now, having some sort of knot feeling in my chest, not sure whether it's cause of lack of sleep or cause of the nervous feeling about later... Talked a bit to some people on msn, like Jerold, Manfred and Siming sir... Haha... Sorry Sylvia and Wei Shian for waking you guys up with my sms!!
Geting back results later, definitely feeling VERY nervous, scared rather... Dunno, how what to say, shan't say much, just hope that the outcome will not be like what happened approximately 4 years ago, which was some sort of disappointment, and I don't want to disappoint my parents again... Oh well... What's been done has been done huh... See how later... Whatever happens, I just hope that I can be strong...
Happy Belated Birthday Samantha! (9th Jan)
And in case I don't blog till who know's when, Happy early Birthday to Priscilla! (13th Jan)
Friday, January 09, 2009
Afternoon, went back to Dr Seah to remove the stitches... Yay, finally... After that, went back to CHS, helped a bit here and there... My senior Foo Qi Ren came down to take a look too... He's working in the general office as a clerk for this period by the way... After training, ended up going for the celebration for Zheng Yang's birthday... Pretty fun event... Still in the midst of integrating into the area, cause well, for 2-3 years you've been calling this bunch of people sirs and ma'ams and then now all sorts of nicknames and stuff are used... Oh well...
Today (ok fine, yesterday actually, since it's like 4+am now), was supposed to go down to CHS to see the BK performance, was also supposed to meet Manfred after that for lunch at school... Ended up waking up late -.- 12:55pm... Wth... Sorry about that guys... Anyway, spent the afternoon playing tennis with Zikai (finally)... Played at his aunt's condo there... Both of us are noobs, but well, at least we had a few exchanges of shots... Haha...
Some stuff to do tomorrow, should be an eventful day... And yeah, quite a fair bit of things have been going through my mind these few days... At the moment, I seem to be going through quite a lot of things mentally, some which I've only heard of but never experienced it for myself... So yeah, kind of wondering whether I'm ready for some things?? Shall take things as they come I guess....
Oh well, as most people would have found out already, our O level results will be out on 12th January 2009 at 2pm... Oh wow, judgement day huh? Shall talk more about this another day perhaps...
Happy Belated Birthday to Charlton (6th Jan) and Timothy (8th Jan)!!!
Happy Belated Birthday to Zheng Yang as well!!!
Ok, I better catch some shut eye before later, hope I don't oversleep... Bye people
Sunday, January 04, 2009
Yeah, then yesterday, spent most of the day stoning at home... Woke up only at like 2:30pm anyway... Haha... Then evening there was the neighbour bbq... Pretty boring at first, cause like nearly all the kids there are girls and Chris didn't go... Yeah, food was good, then later some random games here and there... Even went to the park, talked some random stuff, some were gossips... Haha... So yeah, more or less was that... Pretty fun party? At least I didn't stone all the way... Oh yeah, I was sort of given some advice here and there for my choice of school... Though right now, even my ideal school sounds, I dunno, people say it's boring? Haiz... No idea... See results first (Oh crap, results... Zzzz)... Today, nothing much, went to grandparent's house for lunch as usual... Came home, did some packing, played a bit of soccer with my brother, after that nothing really much again I guess...
Ok, and I feel that I'm pretty caught up with some stuff on my mind now... Like the Charlie chalet seems to be getting more and more complicated here and there... Oh well... Luckily there's Ain and Pan involved too, cause I really don't know how to do these kind of things (I suck at planning stuff, really)... Furthermore, I feel that I'm not really of much help in the planning (can't do nuts)... Oh well, will help as much as possible I guess... Hope I'm not a burden... Haha...
Oh yeah, was chatting on msn just now... Quite a number of convos but there was one that was, I dunno, more special? More fun? Haha... Shan't comment...
Anyway, tomorrow, 29th Batch chalet!!! Should be fun... Haven't got to see many of the guys for some time... Going back to CHS for a while too before going though... Oh well... Anyway, looking forward to Friday? Haha... Bye people
The magic rainbow on the horizon?
Thursday, January 01, 2009
Ok, sorry... Didn't do what I did in the past for new year, trace back my journey and my resolutions and all that... For one, I don't really have time to think, another, I don't feel like doing so... Last night's party was damn fun... Crapped a lot, played random stuff here and there and I didn't sleep at all... Haha... Came home at about 7+am then slept for the whole day... Oh well... Sort of wasted my new year's day right?
Right now, kind of sian about a number of things... Dunno why, a lot of things seem to be falling apart... Somehow I did seem to be happy for a while... Then as reality sets in, somehow, everything's going haywire... I'm seriously starting to hate the motion that I'm just passing through... Everyday I seem to be looking forward to nothing... Bah... What the heck, maybe I'm just now feeling well and feeling super crappy at the moment... May tomorrow be a better day bah...
On a lighter note, for the first time in years I don't need to go to school on 2nd Jan... Haha... All the best to those taking O levels in 2009!!
Maybe I'll post more about what I want to do in 2009 another day when I feel better... Oh yes, finally got a load off my mind just now, said what I needed to say just now... Ok, on to the other things... There's training tomorrow, too bad I can't go down, have to go for the appointment... Maybe my life will change tomorrow? Dunno...
Happy Birthday Jian Zhong!
