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.

Tough Love... Saturday, May 21

They say "it's all fun and games until someone loses an eye, then it's a sport" but what about when someone gashes their head open?! That's just as messy.

Anyways, that's exactly what happened today, I gashed my head open and was left with my hair stuck to a blood-dried slashed head.

You see, Snickers and I love to play wrestle. And now I know why my mother forbid me to watch wrestling when I was a kid because I get way too into watching UFC and boxing. The boxing I can deal with, afterall I hit the gym about five times a week, but the UFC... hmmm... I end up testing out my moves on Snickers and he likewise with me. But today's horse-playing got way too out of hand and through in the fact that we were horsing around in a very small one-bedroom apartment littered with pieces of our furniture and clothes... ya, a perfect reciepe for disaster. And disaster is exactly what happened.

Snickers went to push me but I stepped back onto the corner of a drawer and the I came crashing down on that very same drawer. I crashed hard with my head hitting the corner of it.

It wasn't until later that I knew I had actually drrawn blood. My head was throbbing so I opted out of touching it and just left my hair in a ponytail. Later on though, when I jumped into the shower, I was shocked to see what was going on underneath my hair.

Maybe I need a couple of stitches.

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Tough love?
