1. Waking up to Mi Nam puking on my bedspread wasn’t exactly how I wanted to wake up, nor was it very pleasant. It was quite disturbing actually. Turns out the little guy got the munchies and so, while I slept the hours away, he ate one of my candles… nice.
2. Sundays are usually my kimchi-jjigga days… I love kimchi-jjigga… but trying to find someone to deliver it today was brutal and so I had to shower up, get dolled up, and then go out for it.
3. Next week my students start their midterms and so I took full advantage today of not having to prepare a Power Point lesson by lounging around the house and watching a rented movie. We had rented “Heart breaker Kid” with Ben Stiller, he’s hilarious. I use to think that my biggest fear with getting married was getting married to a possible cheater but now I think I might change my answer. My biggest fear with getting married is marrying someone I find out all too late who they really are. Check out the movie. It’s a good, funny flick.
4. Q and I headed over to Kyobo Books today. I wanted to stock up on some fresh ideas for my class and he wanted to check out some new books. We both parted ways and agreed to meet back at our spot in thirty minutes. I sat down on the floor, cozied up to a shelf and started picking out some books to browse through. No sooner had I started reading the first book but I was interrupted by two high school boys who recognized me from TV. They were super giggly but eagerly asked me a couple of questions about my boxing. I joked with them about giving them an autograph but then the one boy asked me for one. I was flattered. It doesn’t happen often that people ask me for my autograph but it’s happened a good dozen of times or so. I stood up, feeling quite proud, and then signed the book that the boy had in his hand.
5. Turns out I signed a book that didn’t even belong to the boy, nor was he planning to buy… hehehe. He ended up buying it though because of my signature… hehehe.
6. Getting an email from my university director about contract renewals kind of put a damper on the evening considering I’m still up in the air about it all. We’re having a meeting on Tuesday morning about contract renewals. My contract isn’t up until the end of February and so I thought I had more time to think of it, apparently not. Pressure is definitely on.
7. Q and I make quite the great team. I had asked him to help me mark my quizzes. I did the marking and then he entered the marks until my grading sheets. Two hours later and we finally finished about 500 quizzes. I keep on telling myself that I’ll hire my own personal assistant cause I can’t stand this marking business but with a little cutie (Q) sitting by my side and working on it with me, it ain’t so bad after all.
8. Oh gosh… Mi Nam was sick all day and when it wasn’t coming out his mouth (puke), it was coming out the other way and, unfortunately for Q and I, this meant he had mad, mad, crazy-mad gas…. Insane gas that I’m sure could wipe out a small country or kill an unsuspecting child!!!
9. I’m not one for junk food and I really don’t like potato chips but tonight I couldn’t resist buying the newest flavoured chip to hit the store shelves… garden salad potato chips… hehehe. First of all, why would you want a chip that taste like a salad and secondly, who are you really fooling, a potato chip is still a potato chip, no matter how healthy or not you want the flavour to taste like. Pizza flavoured chips are just as unhealthy as garden salad flavoured chips… hehehe.
10. And ya, for your information, it definitely didn’t taste like a garden salad.
QUESTION OF THE DAY…
If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, why don’t people realize… it’s JUST a duck?
QUOTE OF THE DAY…
Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie.

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.
