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.

Highlights of my Day... Tuesday, February 14

1. Celebrated Valentine’s Day with my Wisdom class and a table covered in chocolate. I’m sure I sent 2/3 of them home with tummy aches!
2. Got lots of cute Valentine’s Day cards from my students. I especially liked Wisdom Jinny’s card that read, “I am so happy with you. You and me love”. Terry from Dream class wrote me a Valentine’s letter written in Korea; he meant well even if I don't know what it says.
3. Market day for my elementary Glory class. My girls were the richest ones there and it’s a good thing too because prices have definitely inflated!
4. Had to laugh when Ellie helped me steal an item from Market Day. She was my accomplice. Even funnier was the fact that her husband, the Big Guy, caught us in the act!
5. Taught Clara’s class the “five finger discount”… as a joke of course.
6. Scary…. to think, a year ago today I was proposed to. I will forever be greatfull to God for putting in my mind my move to Korea! Got bless Korea!
7. Downloaded some New Kids on the Block so that I at least have some songs on my computer that he likes…. don’t deny it! You’re my popsicle, I’m your cover girl!
8. Spent my evening with the much loved “Phantom of the Opera”, on the tv it is.
9. To think this time last year I was getting proposed to and here I am today in love with a Korean superhero, …. Yoon!

10. Still haven’t celebrated a holiday with Ryan on the actual holiday.

QUESTION OF THE DAY...

QUOTE OF THE DAY...
When two people cannot see too much of each other nor too little of other people, they`re in love
