gonna watch my tiny queen

It's been a while!

I'M WATCHING FIGURE SKATING LIVE!

I might shout haha. sorry.

Edit:

I ended up doing this while the scores were being announced.

I'm happy it was just Russian and Japanese characters.

I know at least both of them. haha.

It's a good review for doing the Russian alphabet.

I guess it was only letter G that I forgot. It took me a while.

Anyways. Should I make a reaction? Just a little bit I guess is ok.

MY TINY QUEEN IS FABULOUS!

I LOVE ADORE I WORSHIP SATOKO.

SHE IS SO UGH.

I CAN'T.

I really can't see it any other way, she really is the apple of my eye when it comes to the ladies.

I really love her style and her layback and her foot work.

How can anyone not love her?

I am not going to not be biased so I don't think I should make reactions to others.

I have at least 30 minutes until the mens. I hope I don't die from watching Shoma.

I'll go down to eat a bit.

TwT watashi no kokoro wa doko?

I don't think I can wait this for tomorrow. This is so fantastic ugh.

Cup of China Initial Reaction

This is their first performance this season and yet it feels like it's the 2nd half of the season already! This is so amazing I'm so in love! I kind of forgot that Satoko was for next week. I thought she's gonna perform this week but then again I can always wait for next week. but now I get to see this glorious performance. I love it. I have no regrets. <3

Aia I also love Elena's performance this time! Aia! she deserves this. I'm a bit nervous for team Japan tho. Not sure if a lot of Japanese ladies will get to the GPF! Aia! I'm so nervous! I have a lot of skaters I like and want to win! I'm not even sure who to root for anymore! haha I'm so nervous! I'm not watching the Grand Prix series live so I'm scared I'm not sure what the scores are lately and the standings. haha I'm too nervous to think about it! Aia I'm still not gonna talk technical stuff and such. I'm thinking about doing it before and after the GPF. I'll talk about techniques and stuff that I find amazing. basically me nit picking. haha. I'll go and watch some others and come back tomorrow or something. I promised myself to watch Kamiki later. haha

Shoma stan yet again.

I feel like nothing more can be said than amazing. I feel happy I could watch this. I feel a bit sad tho because I can't watch it live because of work but really, I feel happy. I love Antonio Vivaldi. I love four seasons. And I love this guy. haha. I love that after his triple axel he directly made a spread eagle. It's really cool! I want to say something more cool but I don't know yet right now. I want to watch it more. I'm still waiting for the free skate tomorrow yet I'm already waiting for Internationaux de France where he will perform this again. I'm hoping he will be at the Grand Prix Finals. I can't imagine him and Yuzuru not being there together. aia. I'm so used to their little ritual at the Grand Prix Final podium already. oh please oh please. Anyways. this might be all for now. I'm afraid I'll talk about his program too much if I think about it. See you later!

I'll get into details maybe later because for now I want to watch other skaters haha sorry.

I don't know about you guys but I'm totally going to fan girl on this 30 year old bad ass who can do Quad toe loops. I love Oda san so much. He's so adorable and look at him here, so graceful. I feel unlucky to not have been able to watch him when he was still in competitions. Uwaa. I watched this last night but I had a post already last night, I was kinda planning on at least only posting once a day. I'm kinda sick right now so I think this might be all I can talk about today. I'm also working on my freelance stuff. I don't know but it seems kinda unlucky? because this is the only day off I have and I'm still working. I hope I can talk to everyone again tomorrow! Have a good day :)

Rant: SEA Games Event: Figure Skating

ok first let me just say I watched the events. Most of what I can it seems. I can't claim to have watched all of it because the quality of videos are stellar. like really good job. #Sarcasm. Anyways. I've been reading some people saying that they think Malaysia cheated. Ok, let me just say this. I am a fan of both Michael Christian Martinez and Julian Yee and I have to say, Julian won the event and he deserved it. His programs were the cleanest of the bunch and no one can argue. I mean I can't say much for Michael because I was honestly cringing while watching. It was pretty obvious his piece wasn't polished. Well here is what makes it kinda unfair for others. I'm not sure if anyone else noticed but Julian used, for both SP and FS, his programs from last year. I'm not sure what else to say. Ok this wasn't a rant about Julian. I love him too. I also somehow think it was a smart move on him but it was kind of sad because Michael didn't do the same, he stayed true to using his new program and he was struggling. I really wish the debut of Michael's new program wasn't Phone video quality but it was so I can't do anything but judge only what I saw. I can't say much on his SP because basically half of it was gone. I couldn't even see his 3Lz3T like usual, I just saw it from a short replay on the over head screen. I don't know what he's been doing but his landing form is kind of still the same from worlds. He still has difficulties on his landings. Julian on the other hand seems to be really doing good. I mean on his FS, I did not see him struggle. He's so confident and relaxed. I was wishing Michael was kinda like that but it almost feels like Michael is really tense landing. I speak like I'm somekind of expert but I'm not, but as a spectator, you feel when someone is struggling right? I don't want to bore anyone with geeky details but I really want to see them both next month at Nebelhorn instead of thinking of what happened today and yesterday. Where both of them need to use their new programs polished. They are both aiming for spots for the Olympics, so I hope they both do well rather than dissect everything that happened today I really hope they are comfortable by Nebelhorn because they both need to. I really wish both of them the best. I hope everyone else does too.

PS. This was supposed to be a 100th commemorative post. but I guess I'll just celebrate it on the next one. It was supposed to be me and my finally getting enrolled to a TESOL certification. but I'll rant about that tomorrow. hehehe. Ja na.

I'm not even sure If I still have more to say on this issue given the post above is also my commentary. I mean I know that in general people break you down so you can use those criticisms to bring yourself back up. I know but if you really read the article the reporters have no commentaries on the programs of Michael. Just the scores. I really believe he deserves to be broadcasted more on Philippine TV. I watched the show in the morning that featured him and am still disappointed at how little he talked about his performances. For 2 months he skated 6 programs and he didn't detail and talk about himself because he wasn't asked. I feel really bad and I wish he would geek about his performance and even just a little bit talk about his struggles in how he entered the 2nd half of this season. I can't believe how no one talked about him going to Nebelhorn this September just so he get can get himself a spot for the 2018 Olympics. I wish I can say more and say how happy I am and proud I am that he is here for the Philippines despite him not getting the love that he deserves. I wish with all my heart that he get the glory and honor that he deserves. I know that he has plans for himself so I wish with all of my heart that he could be able to do what he wants and more. I wish to support him. I wish that everyone be able to support him as well. Hoping he receives the love he can.

Still wising for Yulia.

Sorry I just wanted to post about the lovely Юлия Липницкая. I love her soo much. I really wish she didn't have the injury during the Free skate at the later program. I've been thinking about it and I think this is my favorite program for the females. I feel really sad that even before the Russian Nationals she had another injury so she couldn't join and now she won't qualify for any for the 2nd half of the season :( I really love this program :( I want to see her skate this again :( Other than Instagram I don't know where else to find her. Sorry for this rant. I just felt a little too sad so I wanted to share something. See you!

Unsure Meiko

I watched the news from here and I'm not sure if I'm correct but it says both Hanyu Yuzuru and Uno Shoma can do quad loops right? I'm confused because no one at the GPF was talking about Uno Shoma being able to do quad loops but here in the news they say he can? Is my source wrong? orz

おめでとうございますチーム日本！

Disclaimer I said I won't post in Japanese anymore but give me just this once? C'mon! It's 2/3 from Team Japan :)))

I almost forgot that it's the Free Skate today and I can't believe it! YES!

bb Shoma won bronze! ネータンチェンと宇野 昌磨すごくいいじゃん！#teamsQUAD ugh I love them. I mean they are soo amazing! They are 5th and 4th place during the short program then they transcended to 2nd and 3rd respectively! It's soo amazing! Haha to my student's today this is why I was kinda happy and giddy today :)) I have to be honest tho at first it was just Shoma Uno I was following. Now I feel like I'm gonna follow Nathan Chen now. I can't believe that they just started joining the GPF. It's Nathan Chen's first year and Shoma's 2nd year. And amazingly Shoma's 2nd year as bronze medalist. I can't say I'm not a Yuzuru Hanyu fan. I have been since 2014 Me and my amazement of Sochi. I just haven't been very vocal about it before because there are lots of Yuzuru fans and If I'm going to be honest I kinda hate being part of bandwagons. So yeah here I am 2 years after admiring him. But I kinda have my sights set more on Shoma now. He's a total cutie pie. haha Sorry. I'm having too much fun. Anyways I just wanted to inform everyone that I won't have classes on Sunday next week because I'll go to a birthday party ok? :) after that day I'll be wholly yours :)) See you! :D

What I did today

Hi. I'm kind of in a pinch right now. It's exam week next week and here I am being frantic about the Ice Skating Grand Prix Finals orz I mean it only happened this morning! Phlippine time and I can't help but be excited about the results of the short programs! I feel like everyone was soo nervous! or maybe most of them have somekind of hidden injury that we don't know about. I mean this is the real deal. They must have been working themselves too much and you can see on their performances that they did cleaner jobs on their craft before this. I wish they'd rest more rather than practice themselves to death today. They have this day off. I hope that they will rest today out. Oh here's the performance of my favorite skater. I love him to death right now. especially his free skate song. that song is my mantra right now

Sorry for not focusing on my own school. orz I promise I will study. Maybe I was just really tired from work yesterday too. It was really busy. I mean it was Thursday so I didn't expect there would be lots of students that day but there were. I was kinda expecting I'd be killing time yesterday left and right but one after another students have been booking my classes and it ended up with me only having 3 open classes! wow Thank you very much everyone! I just wanted to say that it was a real pleasure meeting everybody! I am happiest when I meet new students and make them happy. Anyways everyone should have noticed I don't have open classes today because I had to join a seminar this morning. I did go to the seminar but I ended up sleeping the rest of the day when I should have used my time today to study for preliminary exams next week. I promise to study tonight orz I'm sorry. With that said I'll start ok? I'll see you guys tomorrow! If you guys want to see me tomorrow that is. Bye! :D

Not exactly new, but a different interest I have

Yabai. I got something new I'm addicted to now. It's been years since I last part of a bandwagon. I'm disappointed in myself *facepalm*

So yeah. here I am again trying to figure out what to do with myself hahaha. It's all because of Yuri on Ice. I couldn't help it I got curious now here I am searching about figure skaters. I've been looking at other figure skaters now other than these 2 but these 2 have been the apple of my eye back in 2014. I mean I was really interested in Sochi because of Sho and stuff but they were there as well and I couldn't help but be part of the bandwagon during that time because even Sho was talking about them. Just so everyone knows. I'm talking about Sakurai Sho. The news reporter/嵐 So yeah. I don't know what else to say right now other than this new interest of mine and that I'm kinda sick. I've been coughing since yesterday. I just wanted to let you guys know. Anyways I'm blogging as well because I don't have any students. I got bored. haiiii. maybe I should study :"| booooring. but I should. jaa. I'll see you guys later.

The one below is mine.

I realize there weren't enough gifs of Pichit. I might gif him when I get raws. There are subs so I can't use those. I also couldn't find proper gifs of the lead so I might make some if I'm not busy
