1. Day 3 of student interviews and it's killing my energy levels. I'm not use to sitting in a chair for so long and so having to sit there for 4 straight hours left me squirming in my seat and inching to anything but sit.
2. Bribes continue to flow my way at school in terms of juice and coffee... I'm not impressed. If they really wanted to bribe me, they would have brought banana milk! Hehehe...
3. After school I went on a mad cleaning spree, cleaning out my clothes closet, shoes, and what not. I found clothes I honestly didn't even knew I had... seriously! I'm brutal for keeping clothes and thinking, "Ah, one day I might like this again... one day I may wear it again". Today, all those "maybe again" clothes got thrown out. Two massive garbag bags worth!!!
4. Realized I have a problem... I can't stop buying lip gloss. Seriously, I buy so many and today, even after throwing many of them away, I still have over 40 in my lip gloss bowl... yikes!!!!
5. Realized just how spoiled some kids can be when I ran into an ex-coworker of mine with her son. I felt embarrassed for her despite the fact that she didn't even seem to be bothered by her child's over the top stubbornness. She was totally whipped by her. All I kept on thinking was, "Man! If that were me, my mom would be spanking my butt right now!!!" Yet another reason why the idea of being childless is looking more and more attractive.
6. For those of you who live in Korea, the term "s-line" shouldn't be an unfamiliar term to you. They use it in advertising slogans, school girls chat about it over lunch, and it's talked about on TV. Tonight S-line Wannabe Girl at boxing asked me why I looked so serious while skipping. "S-line!" I answered... hehehe. I'm still not sure as to whether or not I am going to Canada this summer but in anticipation of my possible trip, hopes of sporting a bikini, and the fact that most my team mates are ripped, I've been really pushing myself at training lately... .I really want a new and improved s-line... hehehe.
7. Yes, don't ask me... I am a fitness freak, so please don't ask me to join you late at night for deep fried chicken and beer in a smokey bar that will only leave me feeling like I'll be due for a heart attack, greasy oil stains on my clothes, smoke in my lungs and hair, and beer that will surely leave me feeling disgustingly bloated. Black lungs, clogged arteries and a beer gut isn't the look I am going for, but thanks... I don't eat greasy food, I don't drink and I sure as heck don't want to hang out at some smoky bar when I could be sleeping... or breathing. And by the way, making cracks at me for not joining you does nothing to me except make me all the more eager to see you at the beach in the summer. We may be young right now, but I give you a couple of years before you abusing your youth catches up to you... and leaves your butt sagging!!!
8. It's funny cause some people tease me for my dieting and brutal workouts. Let it be known though, I don't diet because I think I am fat. I never thought I was fat. Instead, it's cause I am a boxer. Weight is very important in boxing, so important that if you aren't a certain weight for a match, you'll be required to dish out MAD cash... mad, mad cash. Furthermore, it's a lot easier to slowly lower your weight now than drastically drop it when scheduled a fight. I learnt that the hard way last time and you know what, it killed my energy levels and strength. Moreover, my diet makes my body feel great. I have plenty of energy, I feel mentally alert, and it just makes me feel so much more confident and comfortable.
9. Q says I have a good body but I hate the word "good"... good is the middle between bad and great. So many things are good. I don't want to be good. I bust my butt at training but sometimes I think my hard dieting and brutal training isn't evident when people look at my body. I want people to look at me and think, "Yup.. that chick is definitely a boxer!" I know looks aren't everything and vanity has NOTHING to do with; it's not about that at all. BUT when you CONTINUALLY bust your butt like I do every single day, whether that be with my diet or training, than you can't not have high expectations on your body.
10. Q's been coming over to my house every day this week and I've noticed that when he is here, Mi Nam acts all playful and whatnot, but he doesn't eat his food. This has been going on for about week now and so he's been only eating one meal a day, definitely a drop from the two large meals he's use to eating everyday. Hmmm... I don't think Q's the issue here, I think it's coincidental. I think Mi Nam is sick.
QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Is it coincidental or is it the reason?
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
It is amazing how much crisper the general experience of life becomes when your body is given a chance to develop a little strength.

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.

Awww. Maybe Mi Nam thinks it's playtime because Q is there. Did he eat when the TV crew was at your place?
My dogs don't really eat if their schedule gets changed. As long as you haven't changed his food (in which case that would mean he doesn't like it!) he's probably just adjusting to having a new person around. :)
