1. Started this work week on an early note.... had to be at work by 8:30 am to privately tutor Wisdom class Hanna.
2. Tutoring Hanna turned into a cuddlefest but boy was she confused when she realized that she was the only student in the class. Little did she know, she was also the only student in the school. 3. Hot topic of discussion today was whether or not it was pig's blood or cow's blood I ate on the weekend. Like I really needed to be reminded about that.... I feel so barbaric! ㅋㅋㅋ!
4. Wore my new hot black suede boots to school and got called "sexy" by a few of my kindergarten students. One question here, who's teaching them these words cause God knows they're not picking them up in my class!
5. Not such a "Black Monday"... it was more like a "Grey Monday" with the kindergarten Glory class. Planned such a simple lesson not thinking I'd actually get through it and yet we did, what a surprise. Too bad it wasn't somewhat consistent.
6. Achievement testing for my students starts this week....great! I can honestly say I love tests. Feels so good after so many years of being on the receiving end to now have the roles reversed. I totally earned this moment!
7. Funniest thing that happened today was when John from my elementary Peace class thought it funny to try to surprise attack me by hiding behind the classroom door (he always does this). However, when he jumped out he slipped a bit and his watch clip ended up getting caught on my skirt... Conveniently right on the rear too. I think we were both equally embarrassed!
8. Always amazed at the total lack of intelligence certain people exercise when asking questions. I would have asked him, "What are you thinking?" but I highly doubt he was thinking.....so let me just leave it at that. He knows who he is and what I'm talking about!
9. Busted my butt at training on the treadmill only to realize that I just spent the last 25 minutes working off those cheap, sugar-infested, overly processed cookies I ate at school courtesy of Cookie and her "I don't want to cook for snack time"!
10. Looked like a true hardcore Canadian as I ventured downtown late in the evening wearing sandals, light pants, and a thin sweater. Everyone else was bundled up but honestly and there I stood with my Canadian pride.
QUESTION OF THE DAY...
What would you rather eat, pig's blood or cow's blood?
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies, for example.
-- John Ruskin
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.
