1. Started my day off on a bad note...not only did I sleep in, I fell in the shower, closed the door on Daewoo, and then had to deal with the stubbornness of co-workers right at the crack of my work day.
2. Despite the bad morning, woke up to a nice dry and CLEAN bed.... all because I flipped the mattress!
3. Realized how bored I get after work when the most interesting thing I can do (besides training) is making dog toys out of recycled household items and peanut butter. One of the toys was so good even I resorted to chewing on it.
4. Worked my butt off to help out Louis so that he'd plan tomorrow's kinder field trip and then got word that NO planning is involved. We just have to show up....ahh!
5. Rick in my afternoon Virgo class started to play wrestle with me in class and so I told him about the good old Canadian "jersey" (hockey move). Left the class only then to find out that his mother watched me jersey her son in the class camera.
6. Thankfully I've stopped my streak of bad luck with Jimmy today. He's cried in my class for the past two days now. However, the streak was broken on the grounds that he was absent from school.
7. While walking home I saw a group of men crowding around a parked car. Curious me went to check it out and low and behold they were all checking out a Wolkswagan beetle. And here I thought it'd be a porshe or some luxurious car....first beetle I've seen in Korea though.
8. Stood in amazement as I watched a traffic jam at the local street corner (1 1/2 lane road) and counted 10 cars involved but no one honking.
9. Got approached at training by a mother and her son. She wanted me to hear her son's sentence and tell me if the grammar was correct. I answered her but now the more I think of my answer and his, the more I think I was wrong.
Here's his sentence : I learned as much as it was difficult.
My sentence : I learned a lot because it was difficult and so I liked the challenge.
10. Cooked a sweet patato as a snack and totally forgot about it until I noticed I couldn't hear the water bubbling anymore.....ended up cooking the pot and so now it's outside on the curb with my other garbage. I'm going to be a terrible wife if this is any hint!
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
Tell a man there are 300 Billion stars in the universe and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch to be sure.

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.

Hey I did the same thing as your sweet potato incident... but with an egg boiling.... and I forgot about it for most of a day.... and when i returned to make supper I thought "geez smeels smoky in the building today. ( dorm ) I hope someone deals with it soon" . Also when i went into the shared kitchen i saw this saucepan and there was blackend goop sprayed on the walls and around the stove. Eventually i realized it was MY saucepan. I didnt' recognize it because mine used to have a copper bottom... which had now melted away. and the blackend goop must have been egg... i guess they explode after a while. oops!
So don't worry you'e not the only person to cook a pot!
Cheers!
