1. Weighted in at 50.4kgs and then trained my arms and shoulders like a mad woman.
2. Got a business proposition offered to me today. The proposition was regarding me helping manage a boxing club with Snickers. I would do stuff like coach the beginners and run several box-ercise classes. The way we look at it, however, is that given all the reasons why Snickers’ club is going belly up, his coach is seriously in a desperate position. I knew this would eventually come, the belly-up part that is, and so I responded with saying “I’ll think about it.” So yes, I’ll think about it. There’s a lot to think about here with regards to my own boxing: my loyalty to my current club, my teammates, my coach; how this would effect my license and game schedule… etc., etc.
3. Snickers is super stoked about the thought of running his own boxing club but I’m hesitant because competition in Korea with businesses is fierce.
4. Did a couple of hours of honeymoon planning and figure I have pretty much made my mind up with where we’ll be staying in Bali. We plan on doing a lot of outdoor sport activities, like renting mountain bikes, learning how to snorkle, swimming (of course), playing tennis, and so on. Snickers is totally letting me plan the trip, which only is adding to my excitement because I want to shock the socks off him when he arrives at the beautiful resort I’ve picked out!!! The actual wedding date, however, is continually being played with on a daily bases. I think it's safe to say though that it will be at the end of February.
5. And what’s a honeymoon on the beach without a sexy bikini to keep the temperature rising?! Exactly. I figure I’ll be living in basically a bikini and skirt for the whole vacation and so I picked out a couple of bikinis online. I showed one of them to Snickers and he responded with bulging eyes, “You want die?” He’s not for me being revealing on any level. I definitely learned that when we went to Busan and he literally walked into the ocean with the towel to cover me up when I wanted to go back to shore.

7. In addition to “A.D.D. Boy” and “Snickers”, Snickers has acquired another nickname. Lately, he’s been referred to as “The-Little-Boy-Who-Cried-Wolf”, in fact, he just about had me pulling his hair out and me punching his teeth out with his “wolf crying” -- fake proposal acts. Whether it was him purposely bending on one knee but doing so to tie his shoe or look at something on the ground, he’s been crying wolf a lot. Even when he proposed to me this past Wednesday and promised me he wasn’t crying wolf, I opened the ring box only to find a tree leaf in it. I yelled out and then he pulled me back with his hand when I tried to walk away. Tears filled my eyes and I hid my face. When he wouldn’t let go, I turned around and there he was on one knee with eyes looking all glossy. That’s when he gave his honest proposal, accompanied by a couple of English sentences he had learned and memorized.
8. Our anticipated evening date on the town turned into Snickers running off to rent some DVDs while I cooked up some chicken and whatnot for us. My game diet has been super tight lately but the cravings definitely kicked in today and so I allowed myself an extra share of chicken, a glass of wine, and some rice. I know, I know – it doesn’t really sound so bad but considering I’ve been religiously following Snickers gram-count game diet plan, eating lately has been all about quantity.
9. The other week I had a glass of hot German wine at a local wine bar and so tonight I thought I’d be creative and try to make a similar delish drink at home. You’ll never believe what happened though. I put a glass into a pot of water, filled it with wine and then heated it up. When I thought the wine was hot enough, I reached for the glass and POP off the bottom of the glass separated from the rest of it and out poured all that wine into the pot. Snickers and I stood there, totally looking all dazed and confused. Turns out heating up wine in a kettle is much easier.
10. Down went the chicken, the wine, the rice, and a couple of picks at the side dishes, but no sooner did it all go down but then I had to fight with it not to come up. Sported a tummy ache for the rest of the night. I guess that will teach me to not sidetrack from my game diet.
QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Where would you go or where did you go for your honeymoon?
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.
-- St. Augustine
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.
