Hello. I'm new here so I hope you don't mind to tell my story and few thoughts.

It was the beginning of 2018 when I seen for the first time a cute gif meme on 9gag of a beautiful girl with two ponitails. I imidiately had to research who that was. And glad I did! Because of her carismatic majesti Evgenia Medvedeva I became fan of FS.

In that time olimpics were a thing and I was really interested in everything about her and grew my interest for FS in general. There is just something special about her.

And then... so much negativity about her from internet. Everybody was criticising her and so me as newbie thought; well... I will look up for other figure skaters but she may stay as my secret guilty pleasure?

Her changing to Brian kinda gave me hope.

And now... I am really REALLY glad that I sticked to her as my only queen. She just look flawless and charismatic as ever.

I guess that being favorite to criticise is just normal process as being most popular figure skater.

What I fell in love with her is not only her elegance on ice but the fact that every movement has a reason there to be. With most of other skaters I can see the idea what they wanted to achieve but somehow either missing the beat or missing the point.

(Btw. sometimes I really wonder is it that hard to be one with the music and what exactly the problem is: -that they can't hear the music properly because of the movement, -that they are too much focused on technical elements or -that most of them are too much sport persons and not so much artistis. Or maybe I just make big of a deal out of it because I am classicly trained musician)

And then there comes Evgenia... the one that is constantly improving in technical way and is growing like an artist.

Let's just take that roll back that she does in the beginning of billie elish song. She is definitely not the first one who did it but this is the first time that it looked good to me. It wasn't just a funny roll back as I percieved it in other skaters doing it but it had bigger meaning to the coreography and somehow it was elegant.

Anyway... this is in short some of my random thoughts why I love her. She is trully inspiration as an artist.

And I had to agree with some people... I should learn a lesson or two from her even tho I'm 10 years older than her!

Slightly unrelated to the discussion here, but I was just watching a replay of the ladies medal ceremony at Rostelecom and I noticed that they played the short program music for Zhenya and Sasha but the free program music for Mariah. Are skaters free to choose which program music they will use or is it chosen by random?

I am dying over these cute plushies in Zhenya's costumes

Happy birthday, dear Zhenya! May all your wishes come true

Happy Birthday to you, wonderful Zhenya! :luv17:

If I may quote an anime in honour of Zhenya
"Stark, bereit, unbesiegbar, schön, entschlossen, mutig!"
(Strong, poised, matchless, beautiful, determined, brave)

Oh I loved watching that when I was younger! Accurate description of her.

She got the concept of birthdays wrong, she's supposed to get presents, not give us some (in the form of both of her skates this weekend). Not complaining though.

I was watching the Tosca program all day. I love!!! It's already on my list of favorite SPs. The stsq is masterful . I hope that Zhenya will return to work with Misha in the future, it shows that he knows her and knows how to exploit her strengths.
I also really like her current SP.
