Welcome to the fest where we celebrate Patrick and his skating, HoneyGoldLev!

Maybe you will stay and be our Indonesia Bureau? Or would it be Singapore?

Do you think he would ever keep this LP? I wish he would.

He told (or wrote?) at WTT this is the last time he performed A Journey IIRC. I also wish he would keep it, with a new costume maybe.

I think it's better to have 2 new programs next season. I think Patrick has done enough justice for his current programs. Time to move on.

About Mao

"Memories of Mao

Three-time world champion Patrick Chan spoke to Ice Time exclusively during the World Team Trophy about the recent retirement of Mao Asada.

“I get chills just thinking about it,” stated Chan, who at 26 is the same age as Mao. “She is from my generation. We are some of the last skaters to come from a very important generation of skating. The transition from the Michelle Kwan era to now with the Medvedevas.

“We were the skaters who embraced the transition of the new judging system,” added Chan. “For me, I am so happy for Mao because it takes a lot of guts, strength and independence to make that choice.”

Chan acknowledged that Mao’s popularity in Japan must have made her decision difficult.

“In a country like this, where skating is (so popular), that’s a huge decision. We don’t realize in North America how big skating is here,” commented Chan. “I aspire to be as successful as she is, as iconic as she is. That is my goal — to be a Mao Asada in Canada. Because those type of athletes are very rare now.”

It is clear that what resonated most with Chan is the same thing that has with so many people around the world — Mao’s inner beauty.

“For her to be so humble with the amount of fame, success and stardom that she has had, she is the epitome of a good role model for the future,” said Chan. “I have spent skating tours of two or three weeks with her where I forget about how really famous she is and the notoriety she has in this country.

“I completely forget (about her fame) because of her sense of calm, and that life is life, and everyone is a normal human being no matter the type of success that they have had.”

Patrick is sooo nice young man :luv17:

For what? Whoever wants to despise someone, will always find reasons for do it ... Even with such beautiful words to Mao, they would say that he is a selfsefiesh envious person who wants to be as famous as her.:sarcasm:

Now, something nice... Eric´s instagram

Here I see so much positive energy from a group of admirable positive people exuding joy because they are being themselves and striving to be the best they can be. We can pick on them and find many many faults because nobody is perfect (even though faults and perfection are both subjective and not absolute) but what good does it do for us and them? Let them and us be the best we can be and the world will be better and more joyful.
