"You can really tell a lot about a person through their drawings."

With regards to the above quote from my darling pianist and karaoke partner, Anna dear, it struck me there and then how true the above statement is, and that proves how much I had lost touch with my dying passion and interest for drawing, painting, and just art.

I had been slowly taking up the art again, of trying to have the pencil love my hand, and create another channel of expressing oneself.

And the artistic friends have been helping me a lot with this.

There's always a "Go, Leonie!" from Azri every time I start about trying to pick up drawing again, which is very reassuring and stressing at the same time. Hey, we are talking about the artistic people in school, okay. They're way better than me, and definitely one thing about them that you can't miss.

They're really dedicated into their artwork, and are passionate about it as a way of channeling their creativity.
It's also a refuge when they're feeling down or upset, maybe when they're experiencing frustration as well.

And there's Anith who had been teaching me what she knows about colouring on Photoshop CS4. We had been bonding a lot these few days. Kind of hope that we can be in the same class next year, no matter what class that is. I'll need her, especially during classes for all the Science subs! And there's the drawing board and the pen which is pure awesomeness. x]

Ezyan has been telling me how much she hates me because the Sakura line-art that I had been colouring for the past two days looks awesome. Haha. She flatters me. It's not even done yet. I'm left with the gems on her dress, the dress itself, and her eyes. Can't bear to creep Sue out any longer. Heh. But Anith and I definitely agree when we say that we always colour the eyes last. ;)

So, definitely no regrets to not skip school for this week so far. And have no intention of doing so till Friday.

It's the final moments I get to spend with my friends doing what we do best and love, as quite a number are moving next year. Sigh. Not forgetting SPM as well.

Oh well, it's really time to work real hard for the exams. No kidding about that SPM cert, I know that. And I don't need no reminding.

*****Anna is really sweet to give me the Catalog magazine she got for me in Singapore. It's total love. Ah, that girl understands my heart is one with fashion and photography. Glad that things went well. And it's the fashion industry. Really can't expect nice comments from them lecturers. Unless you're the next Michael Kors, Chanel, Ralph Lauren, and such.

Quoting Heidi Klum, "In fashion one day you're in, and the next day you're out."

And such is the cruel side of the fashion industry.

*****Abiin and Kamalia were in school today. Abiin is taller and more muscular now! Not forgetting that she's chubbier too! x] Kamalia is still Kamalia. (: Though I'm disappointed that I didn't get my kiss on the cheek from her! Aha, soon I hope.

*****I actually personally hope that one of my artistic friend is okay. I'm actually worried for her. Very.

Seeings her drawings just make me feel really sad for her.

Like Anna, we just can't bear to see the pain she's going through. All portrayed through her drawings.

Bless her please.

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 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.

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.

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.

I don’t have a favourite genre – I read any book that interests me!

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.

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!

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.

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 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.

…are just some of the things I would love to do in the near future, hopefully!

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!
