2. I’m a huge fan of Facebook, or so I use to be. While glancing through some up my friend’s updates and whatnot, I couldn’t help but notice that a huge percent of my childhood friends are either married and already on their way with pumping out kids or are getting married… or pumping out kids minus the marriage step. Wow… is it me or is everyone I know seem to be getting married?! Sometimes I think to myself that I wish I were one of those many who dreamed of a white-picket fence with the dog and kids in the yard and the hubby mowing it. Key word being “sometimes”.
3. In my perfect dream, I have the dog, the downtown posh loft over looking the city, the wicked job, and the only man consistent in my dream is my boxing coach and my father. I don’t have A.D.D. or anything but I find my attention span with men and my willingness to let them become anything set in stone or long term is right up there with my attention span with my hair. I find a hair colour or style I like but no sooner do I get comfortable with it, I start to get annoyed with it and start to crave change.
4. The common question I’ve asked my friends when I find out that they’re getting married is “How did you know they were the one?” They usually give me their cheesey, overly-used answer “I just knew”. “Just knew what?!” I always myself.
5. I tell ya, I may never get married but may God have mercy on any man who does pin me down for life and get me down the aisle…. Hahaha. He’s definitely got a very, very hard task ahead of him.
6. Enough marriage talk… it’s so overrated.
7. Weighted in at 52.80kgs before training, how’s that for a change of topic?! … hahaha. No beats for me today because of my weigh-in, sweet.
8. Turns out I was quite the hit at Kick’s birthday party… oh gosh… hahaha.
9. On Saturday my much beloved Kimbab Chunkuk was totally flooded as a result of a neighbouring shop doing renovations. I stopped in today to talk to the manager and ask if everything was ok. Offering my “professional services”, and by professional I mean me being a professional boxer and offering to punch whomever in the head (as a joke) scored me some free tuna kimbab…. Awesome! The Kimbab ladies are always showing me love and putting extra love into my kimbabs but free kimbabs?! That’s a whole lotta love… hahaha.Heard the funniest story...heard that my teammate Terri put her hand on your leg
in an effort to pick you up...!!! hahaha! She was very drunk and has no memory of it but one of the other girls reminded her of it on Sunday!!...Yes she is gay and you are sooo her type (girlie but sporty)...just a straight version! Hahaha.
Sorry about that...I think it’s hilarious but I am not sure you would as well. I am sorry I wasn't there to save you!! Sorry!!I am also guessing given that she knew all the others were straight she had to hit on the one she hoped wasn't??? haha...-- from Kicks
10. Slaved away at more marking tonight and then planned my listening class Power Point… noooooo fun!!!

Yes, when the right one comes along, you JUST KNOW. That doesn't mean that there's no work to be done, lessons to be learned and difficult things to go through. But being with the right one makes it all worth it.
You've been thinking about marriage lately eh? This isn't the first time you've brought this up. Some of the things you said sounded like you had copy and pasted a post from a couple months ago. I think you should just relax and let love happen. Chasing love isn't always the answer (and neither is this negative "i may never get married" bs, you'll be happily married one day =D)
You sound a little too "the lady doth protest" in this post, Amy.
How did I know my husband was "the one?" He keeps his word. He is honest and hard-working, but in a tempered way. We laugh together over something every single day. We share the same goals in life (none of which include having kids, by the way), and we share some of the same passions. The passions we don't share, we support in each other. He adores me and I adore him. I could go on and on, but if you're not in the relationship, it sounds silly.
But finally--our relationship was great from the beginning--and it stayed great--without a bunch of stupid drama, games, or head trips.
Hi Anonymous #1,
I hope you're right... I'll hold you to your words and if I never experience this "you JUST KNOW" feeling, I'll definitely come looking for you... hahaha.
Hello Anonymous #2,
eh... Canadian eh?! Hahaha....
Ya, I know... it's hard not to bring it up when friends are constantly bombarding me with those overly annoying "when are going to settle down and get married?" questions.
Ok... I'll relax, but only because you said so... hahaha. But seriously, I know. I'll relax.
Hi I Knew,
Yes, yes, yes... MacBeth you are correct. It was one of those let-me-rant homepage entries.
Congrats on finding "the one". Mi Nam apparently is "the one" for me... hahaha. Just joking. I'm sure my time will come too, I hope.
Oh, I should say I don't actually believe in "the one." I believe there are multiple "the ones" in our lifetime. It just depends on where we are and at what time as to which "one" we meet.
I just happened to run into this "the one" when I was living in Korea at the right time. Had I stayed in my home country, I would've met another "the one," instead.
