1. Ratted out Oxford Seminars for their major delay in getting me my overly-priced certificate reprint. Her reasoning when I called was that their shipment of certificate paper got stopped at the border. May I remind you that she’s from a country (Canada) that is bountiful with trees. Sounds like a whole lot of bs to me!
2. Got an early morning wake up call from a certain someone who thought it’d be “sweet” to walk down memory lane at like 4am!!!
3. Decided I didn’t want to tutor today and so I texted the Big Guy that I slept in. Better watch what I say because that’s exactly what ended up happening. Woke up with 15 minutes to get to my first class!!!
4. Seems like everybody is slacking off large lately! At snack time our kinder helper teachers weren’t really of help. Walked in on them eating while all the students sat waiting for a snack. It was only out of guilt that they then tossed some cookies in a bowl for the kids. Thanks ladies.
5. Today’s lunch consisted of me going down to the Kimbob Nada and ordering take-out and then if that wasn’t bad enough that I had to buy a lunch, I then got in trouble with the helper teachers for not asking for egg fry. Sorry but making a meal out of rice, kimchi and seaweed just doesn't do anything for me.
6. Gotta love my Glory girls! Cherry’s mom is lovin’ our class and so she sent Cherry to school with a massive bag of goodies…. bags of chocolate, yogurt drinks, chips, nachos, and even some fruit! What an incrediable sweetie!
7. Market day today for my elementary Leo and Virgo class and so I was bombarded with overjoyed students cause it meant their tests were postponed. Now, as much as I like getting free stuff and not having to plan any lessons, I must admit that I still like test days over Market Day…. by far!
8. Waited NINE hours in suspense for word about the apartment and when I finally got word it totally killed my evening.
9. Discovered why people give chocolate… it’s because when the curse of Valentines happens, like it always does, and Valentine’s ends disappointingly, you can always find comfort in chocolate.
10. Spent the rest of my evening hanging out with one of the chicken dudes for a bit while we tried to comfort the neighbor’s dog who practically got the snot kicked out of him. Convinced I may steal this dog and find a proper owner if I find out that it’s that dirty dude’s dog. Renamed the little dog Ryzyko (Polish). Such a sad but beautiful dog.
QUESTION OF THE DAY…
Mom, what was it you use to say about men and parking spots?
QUOTE OF THE DAY…
Just leave me alone.
-- B.B
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.
