So what I'm hearing right now is our drinking games need to involve shots of coffee

I feel strange. Because it hit me last night that today is 25 years since I started High School.

How did that happen?!

Haru Ganba!
Nozomu Ganba!

I don't know how Kakiuchi Haru writes his kanji but just by the romaji it looks like 'hoping for spring'

Score: 32.86

Looks to be quite tall for 14 - Spins are pretty slow, as usual for most junior men. In general, still pretty unpolished, but nothing a few more years of growing and maturing can solve.

Thank you Matěj for giving us, and your home fans, an upbeat start to the event with "Uptown Funk". It's really got us going!

Not a perfect start. But, it's his first Junior GP. We can give him some slack.

Not sure if we should give Mark any slack for working so many lyrics from the song into his analysis, though...

I don't know how Kakiuchi Haru writes his kanji but just by the romaji it looks like 'hoping for spring'

Explanation: in Japanese 春(meaning spring) is read as haru and 希 as a verb (nozomu) means to hope

 

[norwegianfairytale]

tell me about that!

I can´t wait for him to say Norrrrway next week

 

[elektra blue]

not too bad overall, he made a tomato salad. train your spins boys!

Pretty hands There's a soft, ballet-like touch to his skating, very aesthetically pleasing. Not the biggest jumps, they lack a bit of speed and power, but good Axel. Ok-ish spins for a junior man as well.

 

[auser]

Nice variety in musical tone so far.

 

[yuumagical]

You are more sensible than I am. I just stay up until it starts at 2:30 am. lol

Uh...I stayed up this early too.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Are all of the Swiss boys tall with great lines? Right now they're 3 for 3. Must be something in the water...

 

[Ichatdelune]

I just found out that was a soundtrack from a Korean drama
