A quick rundown of Australia
Or
should I say part one. I arrived at 1:30 A.M Wed the 23rd
after collecting my luggage and getting past customs it was past 2
then off the the place I would be staying for the rest of the
morning. I was not tired after sleeping a large portion of the last
leg of the trip but forced myself to sleep the next few hours.
The day was
pretty uneventful I got to go to a gym and do some cardio so I was
happy as a girl could be and went to bed at about 3:30 local time.
I was all
kinds of pumped finding out that 5 A.M the sun rises so after a good
amount of sleep I was ready to start my day.
Day 2ish
This is THE
day Koala day! We went to this awesome park and you could go in the
Koala exhibit and pet the Koalas and get super close...Can you see my
excitement?
I got checked into my hotel to find out I got upgraded to an apartment! I was so stoked..fridge, sink, next to the pool and laundry! What more could a girl ask for??
WI FI!
But it was
not to be..apparently my computer will not allow me to connect to the
network here....WHAT THE HECK?
After a few
hours I gave up and went to the lobby to use the internet. Not the
worst but the main reason I brought a laptop was so that I could use
it!
After all the
stress of trying to make it work I gave up and turned the TV on and
what do I find?
The Golden
Girls!!! SCORE!
I was happy
again and dozed off for the night.
Too bad it
was not really night and only 4:30.
Day 3 I think
Up at 2:30 am
I found out
about a crazy staircase near the hotel called Jacobs Ladder and I was
determined to burn off my frustration from the previous day so around
4:30 off I went.
I only counted about 250 step but it was a good workout and I was ready to conquer the day. Too bad the NHPW event was not for another 10 hours.
The rest of
the day was spent at the grocery store and in bed watching Arrested
Development. I knew I would need a nap so I tried my hardest but it
was not to be. As soon as I started to go my ride for the show was
here. So off I went....I did manage to sleep a little on the way and
after a coffee I was good to go.
The match was
a mixed tag and my side managed to pick up the victory so that was
pleasant.
I got to chat
with some good people and had a great time!
Then back to
the hotel. I could barely keep my eyes opened but I needed to do
laundry so after sorting out the correct change I was on my way to
freshness.
One load put
me down $8! Crazy I know but laundry is my passion and clean is my
obsession.
After about 5
hours of sleep I was up again and off for a run to visit the war
memorial. I took my camera and got some awesome shots.....
What a beautiful area right?
Oh and if you
couldn’t tell Day 4
This turned
out to be my favorite day in Australia.
My big plan
for the day was to go into the city and get a pedicure.
The
receptionist was kind enough to find me a place and they had
availability so I called to reserve my spot only to find out it
would cost $80!!!! What sort of pedicure are they giving you for $80?
I was not willing to find out.
I wasn’t
going to let that get me down though and the day turned out great
without the pampering.
I had fresh
laundry and that ALWAYS equals :) I also got to talk with home,
walked to a cafe and got to hang out with my ipod and my drink, read
in the sun on the balcony of my room, went to the outlets and
wrestled! I also scored some Subway and it was delicious! Not bad
right?
Last day
I got a good
nights sleep but up again at 5. No nap hopefully I will save that for
the 40 hours of travel that starts this evening.
After a
interval workout in my room (gotta do what you can). I decided to
invest in another load of laundry. You just cant put a price on the
joy that clean clothes brings.
In the
afternoon I headed down to the slaughter house and home of NHPW for a
training session. I tweaked my back a bit rolling so the session was
not too intense and seeing the house at and her kittens was the
highlight.
I was able to
catch a shower and smackdown before starting the journey home. I
REALLY enjoyed entire two hour program and if you missed it you
missed out.
Onto the
airport and the capitol of crap souvenirs. I figured the airport
would be the best place for all my Perth merchandise but was so let
down and picked up a big fat nothing.
Since I
somewhat adjusted to the time change and my flight was at 10:30 p.m I
was abe to sleep almost the entire 10 hours.
After a 3
hour layover in Dubai (one hour spent in line at security) I was
settled into the “long” part of my trip home. A whopping 13 hour
flight. I was excited to find the seat next to me empty and the guy
with the window seat was of very small stature so I took up the extra
space without guilt.
Not too much
sleep this go around thanks to a crying baby and incompetent parents.
Also my little friend decided to drink and knocked himself out for
the last 7 hours. Fine but he snored like giant ape.
I landed in
NYC annoyed with everything but prepared for a 5 hour layover. Once
through customs, security and a freshening up I was on the mission
for Starbucks. Starbucks did indeed make me feel better and less
anxious. I do want the travel over but the edge has been taken off.
Overall I had
a blast! Perth is beautiful and if you are into travel make a point
to see it.
Hopefully I
can catch up on my sleep and workouts before I leave for Joshimania
on Friday!!!!

Perth
I made it! 30 plus hours of travel but all in all not bad. I watched so many movies as you can imagine...Did anyone else think Red Riding Hood was weird?
I guess I should shower and try to sleep or adjust to the time change since it's 3 am here but i have this mad energy. Maybe it was the delicious Dubai coffee I have been drinking for the past 2 days. On my layover I figured I would get a cup too then the guy told em it would be 8 bucks American and I had to look a fool and just walk away. I'm sure he understood.
I can't wait to see what this city has to offer!
Talk to you all soon!

Today
This morning did not hold a ton of promise for a good day.
While preparing breakfast my cat puked three times each time including more stomach vile..bile..acid..whatever..you know what I'm saying (so hard to get out of the carpet).
Next I go to bring the trash canister in to find that the garbage man did NOT pick it up and instead a band of reckless and probably rabid animals tore it apart. So I spent the next few minutes collecting trash.
With no hopes of the day getting better I get the news below!
My my how things change....
Aja was the first girl I saw be a brute in the ring, she inspired, motivated and drove me to be what I am today.
To say I am excited would be a understatement.
Joshimania could be the last thing I do in wrestling and I would be happy all thanks to this.
Don't get excited I'm not retiring or anything just saying this is BIG to me.
If you ever had a dream you thought you could never realize come to Philadelphia!
If you ever though something was out of reach come to Philadelphia!
If you work hard and never though it would pay off come to Philadelphia!
Support WRESTLING!
Support me and see a dream realized!

Time to rant
First of all this is coming from my phone so if predict a text takes over just play along.
As some of you know I was in beautiful Los Angels this weekend for DCW. I had a great time, the staff, fans and wrestlers were all awesome and I hope I can come back again.
But....
The travel, not so awesome. The first leg of my three part journey was great. I was on southwest and boarding group B (S) on a full flight so had no hopes for a good seat. Apon boarding a large gentleman asked if I wanted the window seat in his isle because he was isle and bought two tickets for the extra room he required. I was pumped because he was like 3rd row and I like getting of the plane quick.
Happily I settled in and off we went!
The flight itself was in eventful, along with the layover and part two.
Onto part three and the ISSUE. Full flight again no worries I was in a good front isle seat and the last leg was under two hours. Enter a LARGE woman who asked if the center seat was taken. It was not so happily I got up and let her in not realizing how great her size was.
She needed the arm rest up to fit into the space provided. I don't want to be a jerk or make a sceen so I politely squeezed into the remanded of my seat. As I sat there fuming that one I had no place to rest my arm and two that now 1/3 of my provided and paid for space was now being occupied I wondered who's responsibility it was?
I felt bad complaining so I didn't but made sure to give my most oblivious " I'M SO UNCOMFORTABLE" face every time the stewards passed.
NOTHING!
I understand its a sensitive situation and no one wants to be the bad guy (except Razor Ramon) but really. Someone needs to step up and say "hey...you need two seats"!
Rant concluded

Lazy morning
Expect a rant soon about the joys and un-joys of traveling while seated next to large people!

Blog law blog
No not really but I just heard Arrested Development is coming back with 10 new episodes and a movie. I am so down with this!!!
My day is winding down and I have some time before I can eat so I thought I would spend it with you. Does it feel like a Saturday to anyone else?
Don't hate me but I decided not to go with any original Death Rey gun shirts in 2X...The difference was almost twice as much as S-XL and I would feel pad passing that on to you. Maybe one day I will have billions of dollars and be able to print shirts in all sizes but today is not that day. To all you S-XL types keep your eyes peeled...Is that a saying?
Good or bad sign..I saw a new fabulous Chiropractor on Wednesday and he insisted I come back today (Friday)???
I was hoping he heard tale of my amazing ability to break boards with my bare feet, hands and uh head..whatever. It was not the case just wanted me freshly aligned for the weekend.
If you haven't seen the above mentioned footage it has been added to the right side of this page under MEDIA. or you can view it HERE.
It's that time again, food time! Cabbage time! Last meal of the day time! Must itch my foot time!
See you

SHIMMER Vol 41,42,43 and 44
Are in the bag..or the can..I don't know how the saying goes but they are done!
It didn't occur to me until the announcer declared "For the Main event of Volume 43, Madison Eagles and Sara Del Rey vs. Ayako Hamada and Ayumi Kurihara" that we were that many volumes deep. I thought to my self dear God I have been on them all.
I would really hate to be struck with the truth about how many matches I have had in my entire career. Not that I'm not proud or anything but I still feel I have so far to go and so much more to learn.
I was all set to do a full review on my thought and happenings from this past weekend but I find myself at a loss of words. It might be the fact that my contacts are driving me CRAZY and looking at this screen does not help. I will just simply say Thank You to everyone for all the passion and dedication that gets put into this project. From the fans to the wrestlers, the people behind the cameras and behind the scenes everyone give give gives and it is appreciated more thank a simple Thank You can cover.
But that's what I got so there it is!
The wrestling fun continues this weekend when CHIKARA goes on the road. First Friday October 8th in Burlington, Nc and then Saturday October 9th in QUEENSport (or Kingsport ), Tn!
You don't want to miss either of these matches..TRUST ME!

Here we go
I must admit I was horrible at taking pictures so forgive me please.
Japan was amazing as you all can imagine, looking back much of it was a blur and the days sorta ran together becasue I had a real hard time adjusting to the time difference.
Landing in Japan was an experience in itself. As some of you know a Typhoon hit Tokyo and wouldn't you know it my pilot thought he could land without a problem. After first considering a re route to Seoul or Osaka it was determined we could make it. Our first attempt was scary to say the least...grown men and women screaming in terror and as you can imagine loosing their complementary meals. The second attempt was a success and I was back in Japan ready to rumble!
The day of our first event we got to go watch a live OZ Academy show and it was awesome. SO many stars were on this show AJA, Manami, AKINO to name a few and of course my old friend MIKA NISHIO
The first match I had was a tag match with MIa Yim vs. The Canadian Ninjas. I thought it want well and the Ninjas deserved the win. I have seen photos from this match but don't have any of my own so if you have some to share please message me!
Day two's event was right after an Ice Ribbon show and again was treated to catching up with a friend Tsukasa Fujimoto!!!
I really enjoyed the nights match and think the tag of Rey Ray MUST happen again somewhere...Hey we are undefeated as a team that should qualify us as challenges to someones tag titles right?
Day four we were off to beautiful OSAKA, our last event of the trip and my singles with HOTTA. I was pretty confident after picking up the victory the night before but it was not to be. Technically I can contest her win becasue she picked up the victory via choke but I'll give her that one since after the match she said some very nice things about me on the microphone that she didn't have to do. Sometimes it not whether you win or loose and having HOTTA praise my wrestling in my book is better than and technical victory. After the match she was all smiles
The last day of the tour we were guests at a WAVE show. I was so excited to see my old training partner and soon to be opponent KANA. The reunion was great and we have both grown and changed so much in the past six years, if i was excited before to face her in the ring I don't know what to call what I am now. I have a feeling it will be something special! Happy for now but no smiles once we are in the ring....

That was a very quick review of the trip and so much happened but as you can imagine I have a million and one things to do before SHIMMER so I will leave you with that for now and maybe catch you up on more details later.
I do want to take a minute to thank the S Ovation office for making the trip so much fun and really taking care of me, no words can describe my gratitude!
See you soon!
Sara
P.S. I did pick up some posters of the tag tournament but only one of the HOTTA\Me poster. I had her sign it but she personalized it to me...any guesses on what it says????

All hyped to write but I have no subject
This morning the Starbucks Gold Coast was brewing in my kitchen and it got me all pumped for the day. I have tons of energy and nothing to do with it. I guess giving my keyboard a workout is as good a way as any. I would normally go to the gym and today is leg day but I have a date later on in the day with that and my trainer has me only doing cardio every other day. Don't ask my why...
Yesterday I must admit I KILLED it! I went through a deck of cards in record time. For those of you that don't know that's when you assign an exercise to a suite and do that exercise in the amount that the card represents. Aces being 15 and all face cards being 10. I did table makers, squats, lunges and sit ups. Normally I would have push ups in the mix but figured I should spread the wealth since I was going chest later on at the gym. Everything was going good until the dreaded butt burn! Not as gross as you can imagine but definitely not cool or comfortable either. Let me explain, I was doing my situps so fast that the very spot my butt/lower back and the floor met created friction and I was the unfortunate recipient or mat burn. For those of you that have never had it consider yourselves lucky. The shower I must admit has never been quite so painful.
Today I'm feeling a little better and don't foresee my injury holding me back from anything besides maybe the pool. I will still probably grab a book and go enjoy what sun is left. Yesterday I finished "A Lion's Tale" by Chris Jericho and need to start another before my travels. If you are like me it takes you awhile to get really into a book so I sorta need to force myself through the first few chapters. Any suggestions?
As some of you may have seen on my Twitter or Facebook on October 8th, in Kingsport Tennessee, for CHIKARA I will be facing my former training partner and overall bad ass Kana! I am more than excited for this and can't wait to punish my old friend. I was looking through some of my old pictures and found a few more that were fun...
Nishio and I trying to get the enraged colony of wasps away from Kana
They were stubborn wasps so I decided smushing was the best option
all was forgiven a few days later as we set the ring up..interestingly enough we were outside and NO wasps.
Have a great week everyone!
I hope you can make it out to see me this weekend in Brockton, Ma or Manhattan, otherwise go support your favorite independent group!

Yesterday I must admit I KILLED it! I went through a deck of cards in record time. For those of you that don't know that's when you assign an exercise to a suite and do that exercise in the amount that the card represents. Aces being 15 and all face cards being 10. I did table makers, squats, lunges and sit ups. Normally I would have push ups in the mix but figured I should spread the wealth since I was going chest later on at the gym. Everything was going good until the dreaded butt burn! Not as gross as you can imagine but definitely not cool or comfortable either. Let me explain, I was doing my situps so fast that the very spot my butt/lower back and the floor met created friction and I was the unfortunate recipient or mat burn. For those of you that have never had it consider yourselves lucky. The shower I must admit has never been quite so painful.
Today I'm feeling a little better and don't foresee my injury holding me back from anything besides maybe the pool. I will still probably grab a book and go enjoy what sun is left. Yesterday I finished "A Lion's Tale" by Chris Jericho and need to start another before my travels. If you are like me it takes you awhile to get really into a book so I sorta need to force myself through the first few chapters. Any suggestions?
As some of you may have seen on my Twitter or Facebook on October 8th, in Kingsport Tennessee, for CHIKARA I will be facing my former training partner and overall bad ass Kana!

Week of work!
Man have I been busy...
and I LOVE it! I have been working on lots of projects and picking up my cardio game. Needless to say I feel accomplished and motivated.
One project I've been working on was organizing my DVDs. I knew I had some great stuff but I didn't know the extent until now. I am so jealous of my collection.... I feel like a proud parent who's kid just went potty all on their own. I can not express enough how important it is for all wrestlers or people who want to be wrestlers to watch tapes. No, footage of yourself does not count!
I guess the other big thing you would be interested in is my return to JAPAN!
I am not sure how many of you frequent the SHIMMER message boards but as announced by the Shimmer Office "The Ninjas are going to Japan!!!" Mia Yim and Sara Del Rey will be there too.
It's about time I eat something so until we meet again loyal readers.
Peace!

Its awesome! I have not read the actual article yet but I am stoked the Bella twins mentioned me!
Any publicity is good publicity and that goes for everyone involved!

Labor day tomorrow
Does this warrant my grocery store being closed? I suspect not! My plans include gym and watching some wrestling.
I just organized all my dvds and I have some incredible stuff! All wrestling fans should be jealous. I'll do my best to keep you informed over at twitter!
Take care, be safe!

As you know
If you follow me on Twitter I'm sitting at the Atlanta airport. I had a few great suggestions of things to do like eat, roundhouse kick people or play games. All will only hold my attention or keep me occupied for 20 min max. I decided to be productive and write a blog!
It's been awhile so I wouldn't even know where to start on catching you up so let's just talk about what's happening now. This very moment not much...just trying to stay out of conversations with friendly strangers also charging their phones.
Wrestling has been kicking my butt in a good way. I'm enjoying trying and doing new things and hopefully that will all continue. I think with anything you do a lot of your feelings about it waver right now I'm on a wrestling high!
Personally things are going great too. My training has been kicked up and my diet has been changing so that keeps me on my toes and interested. It's a little stressful being on the road and trying to hit my diet numbers but I'm working it out and finding new tricks. I used to be worried about traveling with hard boiled eggs but discovered they are good for a few days without being refrigerated! GREAT NEWS RIGHT?
Speaking of great news I am now a proud gold card member at Starbucks! Maybe some of you are shocked this is new for me and really I should have had it a long time ago but I didn't.
I feel this blog can not go on anymore and I must immediately find a Starbucks so that's going to happen.
Talk to you soon!

What a weekend
So much can be said about the awesomeness that was this weekend but all I really want to say is Thank You.
I got to meet legends, catch up with old friends and made a few new ones.
I was fortunate enough to have a huge mob of people behind and believe and me and that support was overwhelming. I'm not sure I will ever have a moment like that again so thank you to those who came and supported live!
Thank you to those that will support later today when CHIKARASAURAS REX comes out on DVD at Smart Mark.
