Baring It All.
My name really is Leonie.
It’s not an English name I came up with for myself. My mother is indeed a genius in coming up with such a splendid name for me. Although my name has been unfortunately mutilated (nicknames are excluded) over the past years, full credits to my mum for my current identity.
I’m a cancer patient.
I’m certainly looking forward to changing the word ‘patient’ to ‘survivor’! If you’re interested to read about my journey in battling lymphoma, you can click
here to proceed to my cancer blog.
Green is my favourite colour.
Ironic, I know; this blog is mainly pink instead. I like all colours actually, but I find myself having an affinity to the colour
green. In fact, I can safely say that
green is my
soul colour.
I’m an art-appreciator.
Languages, music, fashion, photography, cultures, dance, literature, writing; just about anything, really. The arts truly intrigue me, especially thought-provoking pieces. Of course, the arts play a major role in inspiring me in my everyday life.
You’ll find me carrying a book to just about everywhere.
I don’t have a favourite genre – I read any book that interests me!
I found out that I’m actually a left-hander.
I am a trained right-hander from young, since apparently being left-handed is considered ‘wrong’. Basically,
I’m ambidextrous! No wonder I find it easier to air guitar using my left hand than my right; I simply relate to the arts than subjects that deal with logical thinking better, too.
Taurus is my astrological sign.
A stubborn Bull I am, too. I abhor being rushed. I prefer doing matters at my own reasonable pace. I don’t particularly like changes in my routine, but I can adapt quite easily. I’m a very practical person as well. I enjoy the beautiful things in life, but that doesn’t make me shun ugliness at all. Besides, it all depends on how one perceives beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
I’m a born perfectionist.
Still am, but I’m slowly learning to accept imperfection into my life. Also, I’m doing my best to erase the many expectations I have so I could one day master the art of letting go and freeing myself to simple happiness and joy.
A natural drama queen.
Compared to before, I’m less dramatic nowadays. Language-wise, I attempt to blog flawlessly in English and speak proper English online with my peers. Call me a Grammar Nazi all you want, but that’s how I roll. I only converse in perfect English in formal situations and during my dramatic outbursts. Otherwise, I’m absolutely capable of communicating like the average Malaysian!
It’s a pleasure to learn and discover new things.
It’s a different issue altogether when you’re forced to learn for the sake of getting good grades, though. Other than that, I’m open to new information and knowledge anytime! I especially would like to learn more languages and pick up new musical instruments.
Travelling around the world, participating in artistic photoshoots, performing in a band, writing a book…
…are just some of the things I would love to do in the near future, hopefully!
When it comes to social relationships,
the basic rules apply. If you respect me, I’ll respect you. If you happen to be someone who has low EQ skills, I’ll try to be tolerant but my patience is definitely limited. I’m observant when it comes to human behaviour. I’m a person of many opinions, but I don’t voice them out unless I trust you enough; I’m very honest and candid when it comes to the people I can trust. Even though I trust very easily, not everybody can prove that they’re all that nice. Hurt me, and I’ll only defend myself if necessary. Hurt my family or my friends –
you won’t find me holding back.
Is there anything else you would like to know about me?Throw me your questions and/or doubts
here! I honestly have nothing to hide, so you’ll expect the truth and nothing but the truth.
It’s only how I phrase my answers that you’ll have to be aware of.

hereto go back to reading!

Here and There.
Okay, just a short update before I crawl back to homework and attempt to study for
mock SPM, aka finals.
All the best and lucks to all the third formers taking their PMR tomorrow onwards! Oh gawd, I actually complained loads regarding the syllabus for lower secondary, when upper secondary is killing me, slowly for surely, 'cos it's way harder, plus there's more things to learn, understand and memorise! My brain is coming to its end, veeeery soon.
I suck at Accounts. And it makes me very upset to see my mum trying to teach me some steps which I cannot seem to understand, which then causes my mum to be very frustrated, annoyed, irritated, upset, you know, the works.
I'm still working on my blogskin, which is the reason why I don't update often anymore. It serves a purpose you know! To motivate me to blog more often, that's why!
And it's hard to find nice skins nowadays. Even if there are nice skins, loads of people would had already been using it, and I want a unique and special skin that screams
ME.
For Chemistry class today, we did an experiment to form copper(II) nitrate crystals from nitric acid and copper(II) oxide. I loved the shiny royal blue colour! And I think most of them classmates would agree. (:
Even Cik Mahani said our group, consisting of Anna, Azri, Salmi (Salmon), Anith (Salted Fish), Gup, Jia Ying, Liyana and most certainly me, had the nicest crystals in the class, since we actually skipped part of BM to get them darn crystals already! It was worth it, we all had a great time taking pictures thanks to Alya's awesome camera that croaks. Literally. xD
I want those pictures from Alya!
Jia Ying's
Mocha certainly got a whole lot of attention today! It's so soft, cute, ah-dorable.. x]
If you see a new blogskin, it means I'll be blogging pretty often.
If not, I'm most probably going on a hiatus till finals are over.
Cheers!
PS : Thank you so much
Dee, for listening to me. You rock darls. ;)
