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.

Rah Rah Ooh La La!
Hello readers! If I still have any anyway.
Missed me didn't 'cha? :P
I know I had been missing in action for a
looooooong time, I needed a hell load of thinking time, and life's been really busy-making for me. There's tons of emotions to be sorted out too, I'm think I'm growing more childish as I turn older with every ticking second. That is not a good thing.
So far I had exams going on, and I have one whole week to go before I can gain my freedom again - which is only temporary, really. Till the most dreaded event of the year called SPM 2010 is over.
I attended
Fio's birthday party, and I met up with so many of the darlings again! Oh gawd, I seriously miss them like heck! Got to know some new friends as well like
Vincent, and I got reacquainted with an old friend all the way from art class,
Dawn! Who happens to be Fiona's best friend since primary school! It's meant to be that we meet again after about five years! ;D
Figure out who's who. ;)
It's not that hard.
Picture credits to Rachel! :DOne of the gifts that the teachers from Tomita High School had presented to us had been found! I will return it to the school, really! But not until I had taken some awesome pictures this little piece of awesomeness.
Somebody get me a kaleidoscope for my birthday, pretty pretty please? :3
And, all those practices and screwing up exams with the same song going on and on in our heads while attempting to finish up some of the most ridiculous papers are
all worth it. I turned Japanese for a day, and it's one day I'll find it hard to forget. :)
Major credits to
Chee-sensei for dressing me up in this. (:
Before we took one of the most unforgettable videos of our moments in high school. :]
Flowers never fail to remind me of her. ;)
And she only slept for one hour just to get the video done!
Which is just so awesome, I don't know how to describe how awesome it was!
Miss Anna Sabrina did an awesome job,
all of us did.
Kudos to the rest of us!
Nadwa, Salmi, Irene, Jasmine, Shera, and Fairuz!
I have a lot to blog about, but time is really something I could never handle well, so the blogging has to wait.
Till a better time, stay alive and love Mother Earth! (Which reminds me, did YOU turn off your lights for Earth Hour yesterday?)
So many March babies! Hope y'all had/will have a great birthday! ;D
"going back to my roots."
