I got this from a friend and i am going to evaluate it to see how true it is compared to my personality.
Warning!!! My views about myself could differ from yours!!! Accept that fact and read on....
My comments are in brackets and italics.
Leo is the fixed fire sign. Think contained flames. Like a
campfire that needs constant attention to keep alive and warm.
(Think about explosive temper too.)
There is a deep love for life and all of its possibilities
...(True...My friend always bitch at me for beliving in the good in everyone and everything and that could be my downfall)
including its luxuries and that love transfers over beautifully
into how a Leo expresses their feelings. Love with a Leo is like a magnificent encounter with the sun.
They are warm and supportive when their heart is given and their affections grow stronger the more they feel that their partners care about them and adore them in return.
Leo's are dramatically romantic and not afraid to show it
.(Lets just say i wear my heart on my sleeves.)They enjoy pulling t heir loved ones out into their world and radiate when they feel their partners compliment some quality about themselves. Love becomes a thing of luxury and the partner receives the abundance of their personal Leo's attention, lust and emotions.
(Very true)
Because Leo's judge themselves on what they have around them (hence their love of luxury) they can be too appearance conscious at times
(True...Winnie is sick of "Hey My hair is really fizzy right?? LOL) and too critical of a mates qualities, appearance or talents. Because they truly need constant input to maintain their vitality they can sometimes become self-serving...occasionally to a point that it becomes egotistical
(I am the king of the jungle. give me a break!LOL).
You'll find that love with a Leo is like no other love...and when they decide to give you their heart....they also give you every inch of their soul.
(I think that if i love someone, i will do my best in the relationship. Not the type to give something up so easily and i really love that person, it will means i really really LOVE him. All the thoughts of our lives together pops into my head)In this lies the Leo vulnerability....when their trust is broken they crumble. They, again, base their own self judgements on those the y adore. Take away the loved one...and you've taken away their own identity in many ways. When Leos feel let down (and it usually takes a great deal)
(Very true. I am pretty stubborn that way. I dont give up unless it is really bad. That is my downfall too.)they either fall into an abyss of pain and depression..or they get utterly cold and without feeling. The lion in protective mode.
Leo Sexuality
Sex is not definable without emotions for most Cancers and they must feel something with relative strength for their truest feelings to come out in a romantic and sexual interlude. They are tender and partner oriented lovers and more concerned with pleasing their mates and feeling the returning emotions as nurturing proof of the partners love.
( Gimme some chocolate now pls!!!! Aphrodisiac!!!)
The Long Term Story
Leos being fire signs are rather high maintenance partners. They require attention, nurturing and pampering. A mate has to be personally strong in them to enhance the partnership but also willing to step occasionally into their Leo's shadow.
(Lets just put it this way: I love to be with the person i love , hang out with him and just do something or just be together. I hate to be ignore or feel like im being put on the shelve. Although i do admit that sometimes i forget that we should have some "down time " as well. My thought is: I would love to share and experience life with that person so probably why i would like to hang out pretty often with him. I like a partner who can share my life with me and do things we will both enjoy like have some common interests, sports etc.)
Leos are protective to the death for those they love and they are generous and expressive in a long term union that is constantly stoked and fed. Keep the campfire metaphor in mind.
Unattended it dies out...mistreated it flares into unpredictable life and burns...but kept constant and tended it turns into a life giving warmth that is undying. The less this natural moodiness will manifest in overt ways.
(Thats my problem: Once i give someone my heart, it is pretty hard for me to take it back and i really hate that. Prone to depression.)
Positive Traits in Love
Protective, adoring, playful, inventive, generous, supportive, sensual, warm, joyful.
(Dont think i am inventive)
Negative Traits
Possessive, jealous, control issues, coldness, cruelty, selfishness, egotistical, self serving.
(Dont think i am very selfish either.)
What a Leo Likes
Feeling Pampered, Being noticed, Being appreciated, Being the boss, Dramatic unions, Mate with a love of life, Receiving gifts Socializing/parties
What a Leo Dislikes
Apathy, Being ignored
(Very true!!), Being criticized, Nagging, One up-manship, Competition, Lying/deceit
(This is a big NO NO for me! I hate liars. Once i dont have the trust in someone anymore, it is Adios!!!* But one thing is that i tend to believe the good in people and i trust people too easily
), Laziness
( I dont like others to be lazy but i am very lazy...:()
Leo Love Keywords
Expressive, demonstrative, engulfing, proud, sensual, adoring, control, egotistical, self-serving, jealousy, coldness, and cruelty
( I am not cruel!!!!).
Final Score: 7.5/10 for similarities with my complex and schizo personality.

-SMILE-
Smile even though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on tyring
Smile, whats the use in crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'll just smile
Smile.....

As we welcome the brand new start to every year,the most common question being asked besides "What are your new year resolutions?" is " Where are you going on New Year's Eve ?".
What really amused me is that the questions are just like a DHL package-Right on time. Somehow, the questions have slowly crept into our "yearly" system. When New years are approaching, something inside our mind just go "Tick tock! Time to ask those questions again!".
Why do people asked those questions? Is it a comparison to see who has bagged the fun or is it a competiton to top each other's scale of PARTYING? Or maybe as culture will have it, We, Singaporeans are just too damn CURIOUS!
A couple of days before NYE, some people asked me the same amused questions. When posed with the questions, my brain just automatically tried to ramble up some answers that would not make me look like i had no plans. However, the truth was, i had no plans. I had no idea what to do on the "BIG" eve.
Do we really celebrate for worthy celebrations or do we celebrate so we wouldnt be lonely and count as a "Loser with no plans"? Does "no plans" makes you a loser? At this point in time, i could probably fool you with, " Oh my friends are out of town or they are spending it with their boyfriends". The truth was i had no plans. I had no idea where to go or what to do. Maybe in " social context", it made me a pathetic soul in some eyes. And i was so worried about being sticked with the stigma that i felt sad that i was going to be alone at home when the clock struck 12 midnight on the day of Eve.
In the end, i did stayed at home. i spent the night and early morning chatting with my friends who are overseas, online. I was touched by the fact that many of them were with me when we crossed into the new year. Some stayed online with me just so they could wished me "Happy New year!", MY TIMEZONE. I had never thought that the friends i met thru online gaming a couple of years back, would still be with me.
It is amazing how these friends live so far away from here but i could always feel the warmth in my heart.
I guess i wasnt alone on New Year's Eve after all.
