Winding back the clock

Helllooooooooooooo!!!
How have you guys been? Sorry I've been lazy and not updating my blog.... anyways, here goes what I've been busy with. Winding my clock back in time to 1949 Singapura...

Mata Mata

I've been given one of the most wonderful opportunity to go back in time and experience life in the 1950s, with this upcoming drama "Mata Mata". I really couldn't be more thankful and excited, because it's my very first drama onscreen and it's as if I'm going back to my childhood days, playing dress up with my mei mei, playing someone else, doing things we couldn't possibly do in real life, it's like masak masak. Everyday I look forward to coming on set,  learn something new, do something new, and most of all I'm still learning how to let go of the cheryl wee in me and fully become into "Elizabeth Lee". 

It's pretty cool be to be able to be someone else, with a different occupation, different era, different character, different background, it's as you could suddenly transform. This is the part of acting that appealed to me, cause it's as if you get to be in so many different shoes, step into a time machine and turn back the clock or blast to the future. Yet I'm still grappling with trying to fully fit into "Elizabeth Lee" and 'throw away' the me at times, but I hope in time to come, it'll happen :) 

Masak Masak with a gun!! When else can I be holding a gun without getting into trouble?!?! Aren't I lucky ;)

Thank you Samantha and all our skilled make up and hair stylist for the looks everyday :)

Vegas Baby / / XXX

This Chinese New Year (CNY) was really special for me. We sang into the snake year at Chinatown with other Mediacorp artistes and got home for reunion supper at 2am, and few hours later, I was at the airport flying off on a jet plane to VEGAS! It was kinda lonely spending CNY Day 1 all alone on a plane though, but who's complaining cos it's Vegas baby!!! 

My valentine's date with this handsome dude..He sure knows how to impress a girl with dinner, a show and a limo!

 

Well if you're wondering why was I travelling alone to Vegas on the first day of CNY, I wasn't on vacation (partially I would say), but I was very fortunate to be able to perform at an annual CNY gig in Vegas alongside many established artistes from Hong Kong to Taiwan! I was so extremely happy/psyched/excited/thankful all at once just being there with these veterans, let alone get to perform with them. A huge thank you to 宽姐, Lim Sek and all at InMusic for giving such a memorable CNY!

超级酷的小帅哥。。也是将来的 ‘罗志祥’！！我们都被你迷倒啦。。。。。

谢谢宽姐，Heman姐和Lim Sek给我一个那么棒的学习经验！让我度过一个美好的新年。感恩！！

I miss you IHOP > <

It was an amazing week that was so surreal..and I miss you soooo much. I'm so motivated to work extremely hard, and hopefully I'll get to go back soon *keeping my fingers crossed*

XOXO to the most awesomest week ever!!!

Häagen-Dazs

I spent my second last day of 2012 in the sweetest way possible, indulging in Häagen-Dazs chocolate fondue!! I think the definition of a perfect marriage is when the icy cold mini scoops of choco mint ice cream submerges itself into the warm creamy molten milk chocolate. It's as if they were made for each other to spread to mankind what bliss is. 

Chocolate bath! How I wish I am that scoop of ice cream right now...

Christmas Fondue (S$48)

Thank you for the cute bear and bubbly :)

Do you know what were the 3 original Häagen-Dazs flavours??
*hint* 3 most basic, popular and solid flavours

Vanilla, Chocolate, and Coffee!! No wonder their belgium chcolate chip is one of the best in the world and one of my favs too. Originating from New York since 1961, Singapore became Häagen-Dazs first international market in the 1980s, and has 11 outlets island wide to date. On top of that, Häagen-Dazs ice creams were developed free of preservatives, artificial stabilizers, additives and colouring!! The perfect excuse for us to have more! Since when was the last time something that tasted so good was deemed the healthier choice?!?! 

Rainbow sprinkles makes the world go round

Assortment of fruits, cookies and brownies

Posting all these pictures is actually making me crave for some Mint leaves and chocolate ice cream on a crispy maple syrup waffle cone..mmmmmm see ya later ;P

But before I go, a big THANK YOU and a big bear hug to the sweet peeps at Häagen-Dazs for the magical Christmas Chocolate Fondue treat XOXO

A Christmas Tale

 It's been 4 days after Christmas, but it feels like Christmas hasn't ended...

I'm such a sucker for Christmas and everything related to it. Though it's the busiest time of the year, with crazy traffic jams, wet weather, and jam packed malls, none of these can rain on my happy Christmas parade.

My family's a huge fan of Christmas (basically any occasion that calls for a celebration, we're in!) and every year, everyone comes together to put up a cosy and elaborate gathering. But amidst all these lights, deco and feasting, we really thankful to be able to celebrate as one big family and spread this love around with our friends, colleagues and loved ones XX  

Away in a manger, no crib for his bed. Our humble Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head.
