lots of people

I am going to fight in a 600 seater coliseum on the historic Padang in Singapore! The reality just hit me. That sure is a lot of people!! Scary!

But it should be an amazingly exciting night of boxing when the White Collar warriors of Singapore and Hong Kong meet for the inaugural WWCBA Asia Cup.

risky event

I just signed a paper where one of the clauses states the following:

I am aware that my participation in the event involves certain amount of risks. I shall therefore not hold.... responsible for any injury or loss of life which may be sustained by me during the training or event or arising from any cause in connection with the event....

Apparently an event where you hit people in the face is not the most un-risky event to participate in... However, the real mystery is: if I lose my life, how would I be able to hold anyone responsible then anyway?! I'm dead aren't I?!
But, if I were lose my life I would most certainly be floating around on a cloud in the sky with a glass of champagne in my hand. And if you're busy drinking champagne on a cloud, life's not too bad anyway! Even if you are drinking champagne with cotton wool up my nose to stop a bleeding (because if I die from a punch I would really hope that it would have given me my first proper nose bleed!) life's not too bad... And just think of the bonus I'd get once the bleeding had stopped and I'd be able to remove the cotton wool from my nose and breathe in the fresh air I suppose they have in heaven instead of HK's polluted air...

Anyway, I better stop there and assure you, (mum, dad, sister, boyfriend and friends), that I am n o t planning on dying. I am planning on kicking my opponent's ass, standing in the ring with my arms in the air screaming 'the winner takes it all, the loser standing small' and sending that bitch home crying! ;)
So please do not worry!

quote of the day

Quite liked this!

The Ultimate Quote of the day:

"Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit."

bliss

Spending two days in a place with a view like this is bliss. (Even if you have to work a bit despite the fact that is public holidays and you really should be off..., it really doesn't matter that much when all you need is to look up from the computer and the ocean is right there in front of you). Life in HK is good!

knock out

I sound like a man today when I speak.
Too much yelling.
Why?
Cheered like a mad man yesterday when my trainer Vusi fought.
And he was awesome! The guy getting punched in the picture went down like a log.
Boom - Knock out!
Gooooo Vusi!!!!

as requested

A picture where you can see the whole pink outfit (well a whole room of shades of pink to be fair...), as requested. See me, there to the left? Do I get thumbs up or down Tiina?! :)

a pretty attempt

So we got pinked up last night. And before some of us got too drunk, (no - not me, I was very well behaved thank you very much!) I think we made an honest attempt to look pretty in pink.

The picture is taken in the taxi that took us from the Breast Cancer event to the after party in town. And isn't Ant looking very pretty in his tiara? :).
