Moved to www.michelleagy.blogspot.com
Just less than 2 months ago, I started being a lifestyle blogger all in the name of fun. I never expected things to go out of hand. Who would have expected me to turn up at NAPBAS with a mere 2 months portfolio? I am still a green horn in the blogosphere.
I once said “I blog to express, not to impress”. Trust me, that quote still stands. I am still a nobody and I love writing what I truly feel. Perhaps being a straightforward person isn’t that bad after all.
Anyway, I hope you will continue to support me at www.michelleagy.blogspot.com. The content will be similar. You can also follow me on twitter (@michelleagy) for instant updates!
See you at www.michelleagy.blogspot.com!

Wicked
Caught Wicked at Marina Bay Sands on 20 December 2011.
By the Australia cast!
The sound was beautiful! The vocals and live ensemble was kick ass.
Flamboyant costumes.
Stunning sights.
Wicked is good but not a must-see.
Something was lacking - it wasn’t Wicked enough to be tear-jerking.

3 INCH SIN
“I can resist anything except temptation” - Oscar Wilde.
True to that. There is nothing worse than having a chocolate craving that can’t be satisfied. 3 INCH SIN specialises in molten chocolate cakes which are freshly baked every day with high quality Valrhona chocolate.
I was invited to newly opened 3 INCH SIN at Millenia Walk on 15 December 2011 to taste their products. 3 INCH SIN is also available at Bukit Timah Road.
I was offered lots of 3” molten cakes, including the best-selling Original, Bitter Orange, Hazelnut, Peanut Butter. And other flavours like Lemon, Mint, and 3” premium molten cake which contains alcohol, such as the Cherries Jubilee and the newly introduced Baileys.
3 INCH SIN’s signature molten cakes are different from lava cakes. I was surprised when I sink my spoon in as it is more dense and less flowy. Perfect for a date as it is less messy compared the the traditional lava cake which “erupts” upon touch. Girls can keep calm and stay glam while indulging in their favourite desserts.
I am constantly on the lookout for novelty so my taste bud deviates from the mass market. I heard from one of the owner, Kevin, that their top sellers are original and peanut butter but my favourites were the lemon and mint!
Both the lemon and mint were refreshing and not overpowering. 3 INCH SIN did a great job with their recipes! I could taste the Irish cream in the 3” premium molten cake Baileys despite the faded alcohol taste due to the baking process.
The Rrrroyal Choc Cake (above) features different textures with two soft chocolate sponges sandwiched between a crispy praline middle and bitter sweet chocolate mousse. Kevin also mentioned that the Rrrroyal Choc Cake is one of the earliest product and it is still popular till today.
A scoop of ice cream went well with the cakes. My favourite was the Salted Caramel (above) as it was not overpowering. It is not too sweet and slightly salted - very versatile with all the 3” molten cake flavours! 3 INCH SIN also offers French Vanilla, Macadamia Nuts and flavour of the month ice cream.
I think 3 INCH SIN is a good place to chill out with friends as they offer quality chocolate at affordable prices. A delightful 3” molten cake cost $6.50 each.

Thank you 3 INCH SIN for the guilty pleasures!

Here’s what we ate at the gala dinner! 
My sorbet melted because…
I was busy snapping away.
After party at Zouk. Danza Kuduro! 
Look at the crowd! The bloggers burned both nights - first night at Zouk, second night at G Tower. Do we even sleep?
Spent 3D2N at Putrajaya Marriott.
Nice view from my room!
I’m going to die from clogged arteries due to high level of cholesterol in my blood! I had three types of eggs for breakfast - omlette, scrambled and overeasy.
I will upload more photos when I get hold of them. All photos above are mine unless otherwise stated.
I can no other answer make, but thanks, and thanks.
A big thank you to Hayden Boutique!
I love how the gown turned heads at Nuffnang Asia-Pacific Blog Awards (NAPBAS). Some commented that the gown leaves no room for imagination because of the great fit while some said it looks atas. Either way, I fancy the gown, especially the bright color and cut.
Hayden was really kind to provide me with jewelry from Michal Negrin to match his gown.
Do follow Hayden on Twitter or Facebook for fashionable updates!
This parsley shawl reminds me of his pre-fall 2011 collection.
With Xiaxue, Cheesie and Bongqiuqiu at Nuffnang Asia-Pacific Blog Awards (NAPBAS).
Congratulations to Xiaxue for bagging the region’s best blog award again and Cheesie for clinching the best fashion blog award.
Out of Town
I will be out of town from 16 Dec 2011 to 18 Dec 2011 for a blog event. I brought a netbook to update my Tumblr if time allows. I do hope that Marriott has high speed internet.
Meanwhile, you can catch me on Twitter or contact me via michelleagy@gmail.com. I will get back to you asap!
