1. I think it was the singer Monica that sang, "It's just one of those days that a girl goes through... I just wanna be all alone and you think I treat you wrong..." Well, today was one of "those days" for me. Actually, so was yesterday.
2. Surprisingly enough, despite being on holidays, I've had a lot on my plate lately, more so mental things than the usual "things-to-do" list.
3. So I've decided. I'm going to get another tattoo. It's still in the workings, I'm still drawing it, but before you all freak out, relax. It's going to be blended in with the two I already have on the back of my neck and it's going to be something, how should I say, something more feminine and very tasteful. I don't know what it is that I find so attractive about tattoos. It's like a signature, I guess, so unique and personal. I'd never be so drastic as to get a full body tattoo or anything bigger than what I can hide with simple clothing or my hair, but I am so intrigued when I see people with full arm tattoos and whatnot.
4. Turns out doing tattoos are illegal in Korea, or so I'm told, hence why tattoos are considered gang-related. No worries. I just happen to be one of those people who knows a vast assortment of people. I've got people who know people who know "people"... hahaha. I figure with Panty Boy Jr.'s massive tattoo on his back, he'll be the first person I'll ask for the hook-up.
5. Didn't really do much today. I was in a bit of a blah mood... which is a bit of an understatement.
6. Loaded up my iPod with new tunes and then I headed over to Hongik and did a good one hour run on the treadmill.
7. Skipped out on boxing... for the second day in a row. I think the last time I missed two days in a row was when I got in my big scooter accident about a year ago. But then again, I only missed training cause I was literally stuck in the Daejon hospital with no money to pay my way home.
8. Q knew something was up. I'm always eager to go to boxing and I never miss training. I still hadn't shook the whole "no opponent" situation. I wish they had just told me that from the start. I felt so cheated.
9. Q saw my phone bill tonight and flipped. My phone bill was a grand total of $25 this past month. "Wow... you really don't call anyone!" he commented. Yup, that's right. I'm a text-message junkie though... hahaha.
10. Yesterday it was ice cream, tonight it was pizza. I figure after eating clean for so long, I was due for a grease and sugar fix. Mind ya, no sooner did I eat the pizza (loaded with sweet potato... I love it), but my tummy started to hurt. I may not like eating so clean at times but I much more prefer the feeling that eating clean gives me, as oppose to stuff like pizza.
QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Why do most things bad for you often feel so good?
QUOTE OF THE DAY...
To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.

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.

I'm having a blah day too...something about my mom telling me I'm wasting my life here in India and missing out on everything at home in Canada. Sigh. Comments like this bring me down, cause I always wonder, "am I wasting my life?"
Anyway..... just wondering if you have just good music suggestions for working out. I am a rock and roll kind of girl. But when i work out I need heart pumping stuff, you know crap like Britney and Black eyed peas and stuff. 'm out of the music loop here in Bollywood...haha
I've always thought about tatoos. But personally they kind of scare me. In that what if it prevents me from getting something? For example, if I got a tatoo I would want one that encircles my wrist, like a tatoo bracelet, but it would look bad at interviews and would be hard to hide. And I dont see the point in a tatoo somewhere I cant see it. I mean even the necklace you gave me I cant see, so i CONSTANTLY hold it in my hands and rub the slick material.

Hey Shelly,
Am sure by now your blah day (days) are over... get your new roomie to cook you a nice meal.. hahaha. I wish Q cooked for me more often. He makes a mean, mean fish stew that leaves you needing to roll home... hahaha.
But anyways, I hear ya about dealing with the stress and pressure of others questioning you. Trust me, I get that all the time. My parents totally hate the fact that I professionally box and so we never discuss it.
Any music suggestions?!... hmmm... crap like Britney... hahaha. Let me see what's on my iPod.
1. Pink
2. Lady Gaga
3. Katy Perry
4. Eminem
5. some Prodigy
Right now my main tune that I'm often caught listening to over and over while on the treadmill is "Keeps Getting Better" by Christina Aguilera... I love that song!!!
Hello Bman,
They scare you?... ok. I understand what you mean though, and agree. That's why I have mine where I can just as easily show them as I can hide them.
Glad to hear that you wear the necklace I sent you. One of my former students at the university works where I bought it and so she asked me a million and one questions about who I was sending it to. Am happy you like it ;)
