My background :
I am multi-talented and creativity is what I am good at. I am a dancer and an emcee. I create contents and blog. I have experience emceeing, dancing, being a model, singing, a bit of acting and I am musically trained (though I didn't enjoy sitting in front of the piano and practice, to be honest). I also have experience writing lifestyle living blogs. I have recently picked up videography and can edit simple videos. I have been playing with photography and editing (Photoshop and those sorts) since young during the era where the trend of compact digital cameras were starting to be an accessory in the pockets of consumers and when the cameras started to be incorporated into mobile phones, but I didn't make it my professional line. I am currently only active in emceeing and dance as one part of my paid professions.
I graduated with a Degree in Law, LLB. (Hons.) in United Kingdom for more than 10 years ago. So you can roughly guess my age and you know I'm not that young and don't expect me to be the soft person you expect females to be. I've seen more than you know. I'm more than meets the eyes. I also have a Diploma in Computer Science/Information Technology. Aside from running my own business, I have worked in corporate, multi-national, private firms and also start-up companies in United Kingdom and Malaysia.
The real me :
I am someone born to be creative with different talents, some which I have been fortunate enough to nurture while I was growing up, and some which I have let go of. You know, as we age, we have limitations. So, it's about knowing myself and doing what is right for me.
An example - I tried practising intensive contemporary dancing for 7 hours a few days and soon enough, I'll be squeezing muscle rub ointments non-stop to apply on my achy-breaky body parts. Ended up so tired that my rhythm is 3 seconds slower than others. The mind telling my body to move but the travelling signal is moving at 10kmph. I can still do my splits and lift my leg up straight so that it can touch my head. Not a problem. I have accepted that this is part of being human and aging. I have learnt to love myself. This doesn't mean I'm not dancing anymore. I am. I just do the types of dances that would suit my current condition. Once a dancer, always a dancer and my love for dance never ends.
I can be serious when it comes to business and work but at the same time, I enjoy laughing. It's good to get the endorphins flowing. I have been awarded with the title "quirky" in my highschool magazine. That's probably where the creative side shows - daring to be different. However, as I matured, I prefer the finer things in life. My style is a mixture of everything. To give an idea of what that means, let's say style is like music genres. I like music from classical to techno, trance, pop, hip-hop, popular, easy listening, country and even opera but not heavy metal. I love silence as well.
What I love :
- Dance
- Emceeing
- Fashion
- Lifestyle living
- Wellbeing especially to ensure that I'm well
- Fitness
- Events
- Money. Don't judge me and let's be real - we all need money to survive. Even charity needs money and those organisations are always asking for money donation. I'm an individual on this Earth, where money is the form of exchange here, so it's my responsibility to take care of this individual put here on Earth and of course I need to receive money. If anyone gets in my way of my responsibility and my time and energy is taken away from taking care of myself resulting in my health being jeopardized in any way, then I become the charity case and you have to take care of me plus donate to me instead. By right, any services rendered and anything given, the form of exchange is money, which means it's payment but people sometimes don't know how to pay, so it's called "donation" instead. Donation should be when you give without expecting any services or anything in return.
My social media and services for hire :
I create contents (UGC, KOL, KOC and creative type) aside from performing (currently focusing on emceeing and dance). My services are for hire. Different services will have different fee packages. If you're interested to see more of my contents and reach out to me for further communication, my social media are as follows :
• TikTok : https://www.tiktok.com/@myleong

To create and to be able to express,
M.Y. Leong
