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!

You Killed Her!
©I am We Todd Did.As you can obviously see, I made some changes to my current blog layout. I decided that having two blogs with the same layout is getting to be quite an eyesore. Or rather, I just needed some colour in my personal blog.
No offence to my friends and fellow readers who like the colour
pink, but back in those days when I have not embraced the feminine side in me - I
used to deny liking this colour. Apparently, I'm not afraid to admit that I
do like this colour now. But of course, the colour
green will always have the most significance to me as..me!
To be painfully honest, I'm running out of things to blog about. I wonder why, really!
I have millions of thoughts and opinions running in my head all day long. So, that doesn't give me any excuse to not have something to write about!
Unfortunately, as much as I don't want to remind fifth formers around Malaysia that we have this major examination called SPM coming up in 58 days, I typed the sentence before this as a reminder to myself.
I'm actually tempted to go on a hiatus till I'm done with SPM, but I don't think I'm capable of doing so. I love expressing my ideas here, whether they're boring or interesting to
you,
you or
you. So there.
Sometimes, when I blog-hop to a variety of blogs with a myriad of bloggers with distinctive and different writing styles, it makes me feel inferior to them. It never fails to cause this question to pop into my head -
"Why am I not as interesting as them?"Nonsensical notions like
why these people lead more interesting lives than me and have more interesting life stories to blog about with all the fun things they do with their friends and family keep going on and on in my already small brain. I'm not calling myself stupid, but I'm really running out of space in my brain. No kidding there.
Maybe I'm blogging a whole load of random crap right now because I feel extremely guilty that I haven't been managing my time as wisely as I should.
I think after I publish this entry, I'm going to regret it. Too many ramblings and too little substance. I guess being isolated for so long is getting to me again. Gosh.
If you're a loyal reader of this blog, do pray for a more sensational post from me. Least you get bored to tears.
Cheers!
