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... Friday, July 20

1. Still no real comment from Yoon Jae about Wednesday. He doesn't want to talk about it.

2. Finally got a chance to catch up on my emailing... well some of it. I'm beginning to become quite the computer geek... oh my gosh!

3. Not a very interesting day today. For the most part, today consisted of basically me cleaning my house and singing at the top of my lungs... hehehe.

4. Ok, ok, ok... so seems like the hot question lately has been "When are you (me) coming back to Canada?" Honestly, I have NO idea. But, I will say this. If my friend Errol, whom I met when I first came to Korea, comes back to Korea as he is suggesting he will next spring, I WILL BE STAYING ANOTHER YEAR, FOR SURE.

5. Took Mi Nam was quite the attention hog today when I took him for a walk. The Kimbab Chunkuk lady bombarded him with pieces of ham, while others stared at him, asked to pet him, and one boy gave him like half a bag of chips... hehehe. Mi Nam loves it and they for sure love him!

6. In Hannah's attempt to make me make me feel better about the whole Yoon Jae situation, she bought me chocolate. She said that chocolate will make my heart happy.... hehehe. She's so cute. Besides chocolate being a kind of aphrodisiac, supposedly, did you know it is also a kind of poison... I'm serious. Apparently chocolate kills dogs. It affects a dog's heart and nervous system. A few ounces is enough to kill a small sized dog... oh my gosh! That's terrible!

7. More useless facts I found out today:

a. Everyone has a unique eye and tongue print.... I can so foresee some guy using this as a bar line... hehehe.

b. On average, 12 newborns will be given to the wrong parents daily... I think this explains why I look nothing like my parents... hehehe.

c. Most lipstick contains fish scales... That's cool with me. I'm a lip GLOSS kind of gal... hehehe.

d. Mosquito repellents don't repel you, they hide you. The spray blocks the mosquito's sensors and so they don't know that you are there... Hmm, cool. Can someone please use this info to create me a "bad boy repellent"!!!

e. Peanuts are one of the ingredients in dynamite.... That would explain my retarded hyperness, I eat a lot of peanut butter and am usually a bit off the wall, hehehe.

8. Got myself all psyched up for a movie and dinner for one, well, with Mi Nam too. Headed out, ordered myself some chicken and then went to go pick up a movie... the place had closed, an hour early... dang!

9. Forget this staying in on the weekends... I remember back when I lived in Toronto, Canada. I'd have at least a couple of places I had to hit before the night was over. Catching me at home was basically impossible and weekends consisted of meeting up with lots of friends, spending mad cash, not being able to catch dinner till about 3am and was one big overdose of giggles and good times. Now, it's Friday night and I'm home alone with a bucket of chicken and Mi Nam staring at me... dang. I ended up not even eating the chicken... I gave it to Mi Nam.

10. No word from Yoon Jae. I told him I wanted to talk to him about "it" by tonight. Times up. He said he wants to wait till tomorrow to talk. I'm not one to wait around for a guy, at least not this early in the game. I've got big plans for tomorrow. "PG" rated plans... hehehe. Jokes.

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
What's the point?

QUOTE OF THE DAY...
