1. FRIDAY THE 13TH!!!
2. Am convinced Eric is Korea’s most curious little boy. Spent the morning running away from his wondering hands. He even followed me into the bathroom!
3. Invented this really quite easy game for Dream class. It’s like hopscotch but the steps are large print-outs of vocab words. They loved it. Their record time for 10 words, 9 students was 1 minute and 44 seconds. Just goes to show you how simple kids are.
4. Accidentally swiped a pink marker across Betty’s face (she’s in my elementary Leo class). Sent her to the bathroom to wash up and when she returned to class she threw-up a handful of water…. not cool! We all got wet, including some important papers. Grabbed her by her jacket and pushed her out of the class.
5. Felt so disappointed with Betty and at the end of class I opened the door and there she stood waiting for me. She turned and then asked me, “Are you still going to kick me in the butt?” Earlier I had told her I was going to kick her (jokingly) in the butt if she didn’t stop fooling around in class. Turns out she thought I was serious.
6. After dealing with Betty I then had to go to the always “interesting” Virgo class where I there had to deal with Jimmy. Turns out Jimmy thinks it’s funny to not do homework. He didn’t think it was funny when I kicked him out of class and sat him in the teacher’s room. I told him he wasn’t allowed to go home until he caught up with his homework book work (about 3 weeks of pages).
7. Thirty minutes later, Jimmy returns to class with not only all his homework done but with a very changed attitude. I think I spooked him.
8. Went to my old gym and ran into Woo. Scored a deal on my membership… boy do I miss this gym and my old buddies! Impressed some of my buddies with my retarded skipping tricks. Simple things for simple minds!
9. Went to my new gym and canceled my membership. Turns out the new trainer there is some kind of semi-pro boxer and so I was definitely kicking myself in the butt for not finding this out earlier… maybe I would have stayed here. Regardless, he invited me out to his class and so I’m thinking about it.
10. Cruised around with Jin Suk and ended up in the middle of no where at the world’s tiniest tea house. Came home and then hung out with Ryan.
QUESTION OF THE DAY...
What's better, smarties or M&Ms?
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
Tell a man there are 300 billion stars in the universe and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch it to be sure.
-- Murphy's Law
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.
