1. Introduced Ryan to the good old "Dutch oven"... ㅋㅋㅋ!
2. Hmmmm, interesting. After months of not talking to him via email or the telephone, good old Muffin Nuts from Canada calls me up out of the blue. It's nice to know that I'm missed, regardless of the reasons.
3. Sent Ryan to the store to by tights for me and then after he returned with the wrong kind, sent him again. So funny... in my country this would probably be viewed as a form of torture but Ryan's totally cool about it.... cool.
4. Dressed Ryan up in a totally Korean stylin' style.... black velvet blazer, white dress shirt and blue jeans. All I can say is Canadian men have nothing on this Korean man!
5. Ventured into Seoul with Ryan with no particular plans at all.
6. While waiting for our bus in Cheonan, met a cute little 3 yr old boy with a better fashion sense than most men six times his age. He apparently was fascinated with my white exposed legs (I was wearing a skirt) and so he continually insisted on grabbing them.... not touching, I mean grabbing!
7. Our day trip into Seoul consisted of tasting the various street vendor's foods and window shopping. Ryan bought me silver earrings and that was basically the extent of our shopping purchases.
8. Spent the whole day away from my apartment knowing for a sure fact that Daewoo is probably chewing on my walls. He's a mean, lean, wall-chewing crazy dog machine!
9. Finally read my email from Marcus.... ya Marcus, you're totally right.... you are, as the Koreans would say, "dong"!
10. Admit that my 9th comment for today took things too far. Sorry Ryan, I can't get over the stupidity of this whole situation. It's comical and yet sad at the same time.
QUESTION OF THE DAY...
How often do you remember your dreams?
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving, you lose that courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream.
-- Martin Luther King, Jr.
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.
