1. So much for a nice morning run, it was pouring outside. Run got postponed till the rain stopped.
2. Snickers’ hair design friend, the so-called Miracle Worker, came to Guum Ggum today. I was all excited about him doing my hair. “I want light ash brown – sandy blond” I told him, “Like the color of beach sand.”
3. I take it I should have added “The color of clean beach sand, not Korean beach sand” because what I got was definitely not the sand of common beach sand. When he told me to go rinse my head of the hair color, I called Snickers into the bathroom to give him my I’m-definitely-not-happy look, and I think the exact words I mumbled to Snickers were “I wanted the color of beach sand, not the color of crap on the beach sand!”
4. The so-called Miracle Worker insisted that the color would fade and I waited till he left to continue my I’m-not-impressed look. Snickers sat their frowning while I must have washed my hair about half a dozen times.
5. I was ticked, to say the least. I wouldn’t have put my hair through hell and back with all the bleaching and then chopping off tons of it only so that I could return to dark brown hair!!! Now I’m back to the problem I was in the first place – dark hair with light roots that are sure to grow in soon. I don’t want dark hair again. Dang Skippy!!!
6. Was one step away from being able to breath fire because of being so ticked off and so I geared up and went running.
7. Snickers has been going on my runs with me lately and so he’s been such a great motivator to me. During our runs together he randomly gives me thumbs ups, throws out random words, and occasionally pats me on the bum like we’re in some kind of football locker room. He’s hilarious but I definitely appreciate his effort to help me out.
8. Got down to marking student writing assignments tonight, definitely not a fun thing to do but certainly a necessity. Marking kills me.
9. Marking also drives me bonkers but Snickers insisting I take breaks for random back massages and cat naps definitely helped to keep me sane.
10. Snickers ordered in call-food tonight and having to sit there and endure the smells and sight of all that delicious looking food was torture. I’m on a very limited, very tight diet that doesn’t even so much as let me drink excessive water or eat the foods and quantity of foods I am use to. He said he’d go out to the restaurant if I thought I couldn’t handle the temptation but I insisted that he order it, claiming that I needed to work on my mind control.
QUESTION OF THE DAY...
What is the color of your beach sand?
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
I'm not offended by all the dumb-blonde jokes because I know that I'm not dumb. I also know I'm not blonde.
-- Dolly Parton
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.
