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.

Wednesday, 30th December 2009.So because of Cafe World, I ended up delaying going to the movies and we nearly missed the 1.00PM screening of
Muallaf.
It's really sad that whenever I watch a Yasmin movie,there's hardly anyone there. The theatre room is also always the smallest one they have, with the least seats. It's really depressing.
But at the same time, it's also amazing, 'cos it's most probably loyal Yasmin fans all in one small room. (:
There were so many empty seats,
kor and I could even lean on the chairs in front of us. We were sitting at the very back row.
Muallaf was just awesome. And still is. Yasmin films always made me think a lot.
At least this time they didn't rudely stop the movie while the credits were still rolling. They did for
Talentime.
We're the last to leave.
May you rest in peace Yasmin Ahmad.
I forgot to mention that I saw
Kat there! She was with her mum, sister and her cousin
Serah! OMG, I had not met Serah for two years, and she hardly changed! Except that she's prettier and stylish now though. :D
Finally
kor brought me to Sushi King. :D The Golden Balls were really nice. I'm craving for more sushi now though. Haha!
And thank gawd
kor suggested to get the tickets for
Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 earlier when we bought the
Muallaf tickets. The line was so long, I was
sooo glad to just skip the hectic queue. (:
Compared to
Muallaf earlier, we got a full house for the Chipmunks. That's normal I guess.
And the girls next to me were squealing with me throughout the movie. xD There's a good audience I guess. Everyone laughed at the funny bits, which is what makes watching movies at the cinema pretty awesome. :]
★Somehow, this made me felt kind of uneasy and restless throughout the second movie.
I got a call from an unknown number.
I'm sorry if I sounded rude, but I get paranoid about unknown phone numbers. It's a thing with me since those childhood days.
I heard your voice for the first time, though we had yet to meet. It was nice talking to you, but at the same time, it was very painful too. Especially for you.
I would kick the dude in the balls, if I could. And mock him about it.
I'm really hoping everything turns out fine for you dearie. <3
