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!

Dance Dance!
Had a very weird sleeping pattern yesterday, and I have Sports' Day to blame for it.
Right after that I had Physics' tuition at Omega, and I swear my brains were fried that I was uttering and muttering total random crap to
Khairina. Pity her, she had to entertain my weirdness for two whole hours.
Then, slept from 7.30PM - 10PM, secretly did homework till 4AM, then slept till 7.30AM to get ready for Chemistry and Add. Math.
Why did I have to do my homework discreetly without letting my parents know?
It's 'cos I told them I'd finished everything, so that I could go over to
Fiona's to practice the choreographed dance for her Blacklight Party.
Good news? I managed to get there and come back home in one piece.
Bad news? I'm still not done with homework nor studying for the upcoming test.
I hadn't even started revising any of the subjects yet, believe me.
But yeah, all these school-related worries aside, I had fun dancing and hanging out with Fio and
Shu Rong today. Adding the fact that I had
Latte and
Da Freak, Fio's Chihuahua and pet tortoise respectively, who both entertained me with their cute and crazy and weird antics in the day.
What with Latte being so hyper and
ah-dorable and Da Freak trying to get out from it's box and ended up lying on its shell. By the way, Fio's tortoise only got named today, and I sort of suggested naming him / her / it Freak 'cos she kept on calling it just that. Pity him / her / it, being verbally abused by Fio and poked continuously by Shu Rong :P
I'm seriously thankful that I did go.
'Cos I wasn't supposed to, but thank gawd Fiona could fetch me back to her house, and just hanging out and dancing the steps whether right or wrong, it's very relaxing somehow. And we were talking about loads of random stuff, including Chemistry which I had Shu Rong aka the Chemistry expert to check my graphs for PEKA and explain something about ionic bonds to me XD
Got into heck load of trouble regarding me in getting back home, and I might be banned from going next week, but oh well, I'll try to think of something.
Oh yeah, I'll blog about Sports' Day soon, once I have all the pictures.
Have school tomorrow as usual.
Am so freaking tired.
Zzzzzzzzzz.
