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.
Or…you can click
hereto go back to reading!

Poker Face.
-Pride, ©synthesis.-I never thought I would be facing..utter stupidity and negativity from homophobes the moment I’m open about me being a bisexual who likes girls more.
And yes, it finally did.
Great.An ex-boyfriend of one month was shocked when he found out I was bi. And that was
before I explained to him the difference of being a bisexual and a gay/lesbian. He actually thought I was a lesbian.
After that commotion, he went around announcing to the whole world on his MSN status,
"OMG~~~my ex is a BI!!!"And yes, in those exact words.
Hello, is it
that much of a shock to you? Proves how much you had been living in a shell all this while.
You don’t even know the difference between a bisexual and a gay/lesbian. How can you judge someone without knowing the facts in the first place?
And so what if I’m a bisexual? You don’t have to keep rubbing it in the wrong way. Calling me not by my name, but
bi? What do you think I am?
I am really sick of such..
dense people who don't even know the difference between a bisexual and a gay/lesbian.
There's a difference, but still, gays, lesbians and bisexuals around the world are still being discriminated for being different.
Therefore, as a proud bisexual, I dare say,
Love me or hate me,I'm still a bisexual.I'm just as normal as any other human.We only differ by our sexual orientations.
And how is that going to affect you?
Nil. Zilch. Nada.It's not like I'm forcing you to be gay.
Nor a lesbian or a bisexual.
It's ultimately about choices.You say it's a sin.
Well, I chose to sin.You don't need to care.
'Cos it's my choice.
And I made a choice to be myself.Peace out lovelies. ☮
