All of a sudden my stream switched back to lowres again. Did it happen to anyone else?

Mine is still okay (no jinxing!)

 

[Meoima]

Zijun is sooo lovely

 

[Sandpiper]

Despite the slight mistake, Zijun looked so happy out there performing. I hope she brings more of this to the LP as well.

Sui is now decked out with an entire mane of flags.

Off topic, but:

I grew up in the southern U.S., and I don't remember this part?? An older married woman being referred to as Miss ___?

What I do remember about the south is that it is not uncommon for very young girls -- kiddies -- to be referred to as Miss Sally and Miss Mary, etc., in certain situations.

Really? Where did you grow up? That's the opposite as I've experienced in AL. Here your parent's friends were always Miss so-and-so. I'm Miss (RuffledGrouse) to my friend's children. Even as an adult, you might still call elderly woman Miss. Dialect differences are really fascinating to me.

On topic- Good job, Zu!

 

[EdgeCall]

Not perfect, but could have been worse. I wonder if she ever catches a streak of consistency?

PCS 27.45? Should be higher.

GO MAE!

 

[alebi]

oh my... Han's mask is frightful :shocked:

 

[lady_bee]

Go Mae!
You are the reason why I decided to buy the ticket for the day after tomorrow!

 

[Meoima]

oh my... Han's mask is frightful :shocked:

eh that's a famous character in Chinese culture. Zhu Bajie is not frightful at all.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I took it as I general team spirit thing. Do people use it as a birthday song? I mostly remember the song from the club scene in the film Chasing Amy. I did enjoy her layback spin

Probably was intended like that. It's just that I remember a children's TV programme where that song was sung whenever it was somebody's birthday.

How many flags does Sui Wenjing need?! That was hilarious all those flags sticking out of her coat!

Shame about the jumps, but Mae's program remained fun.

And this is why I root for Team France. Best Kiss&Cry.

 

[Meoima]

oh sorry... I'll go to search info right now!

From Journey to the west, Zhu is funny and always hungry. He is more like the comical value of the story.

 

[EdgeCall]

And this is why I root for Team France. Best Kiss&Cry.

:thumbsup:

 

[firal]

Is Amodio the only male skater who is still in the kiss and cry? He obviously doesn't need warming-up...

 

[bartlebooth]

And this is why I root for Team France. Best Kiss&Cry.

Oh, yeah. And, on a shallow note: so much hotness! Even the coaches!

 

[jenm]

Love Mae's dress )) It's so pretty.

 

[sabinfire]

Alright, this is what I got out of bed for. Better be worth it!
