As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).

After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.

Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.

Highlights of My Day...Wednesday July 20

1. Wore the third and last pair of my new pants only to sit in water and have the kindergartens joke around saying "Amy Teacher pee pee her pants".....man, I'm not having good luck with these new pants!
2. Countdown continues till my holidays....2 more days!!!
3. Was so excited about making sail boats with my kindergartens and they ended up totally sinking! I think I was more disappointed than the kids.
4. Got accused of getting chapped lips from too much kissing....kissing the kindergartens on the cheek that is!
5. Had show and tell with my kindergartens and when it came to Jenny's show and tell she pulled out a paper that wrote "I love Amy Teacher" in big letters!
6. Admitted that I have an addiction.....to this specific Korean soap-opera....found myself running home to make sure I didn't miss any.
7. Saw a grown Korean man (the "gym hottie") do the splits and it grossed me right out...he's done this before but I think he's proud of it.
8. Was told to watch what I eat cause "Paulo won't want me if I'm fat"....thought of this and had to laugh considering I'm one of the smallest (probably the fittest too) employeed by this man!
9. Realized that after eating rice for about 150 straight days, I'm still not sick of it....maybe it's not possible.
10. Freaked out about the "roommate" situation. Came home, TOTALLY scrubbed down the bathroom and when I finally thought I killed them all, inhaled one through my nostril!
