When some random person on the internet writes a fanfic involving figure skating and you get angry because THAT'S NOT HOW OLYMPIC QUALIFYING, DRUG TESTS, AND BRITISH MALE FIGURE SKATING WORKS. AND I KNOW THIS IS SET IN THE REAL WORLD, SINCE JACKIE WONG SOMEHOW EXISTS. ALSO, HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THIS AND THIS???

(sorry... )

When you listen to all the music of your fav skaters (on the bus to school this morning I listened to Alena’s SP music like 5 times over because I’m probably going to die waiting to see it, same with Anna last week [emoji23]*)

You're annoying your tennis friends whilst watching the US Open because you keep accidentally referring to Medevev as Medeveva.

 

[Ladskater]

You take your old faithful figure skates out of the closet and lovingly clean them....even though you might not be hitting the ice anytime soon. lol

You choose to blog about your favorite figure skater occasionally, knowing full well that your blog is read by your non-hardcore-fan friends. This means you have to share time stamps for everything you point out, write out the element names, and explain how the competitive season works. But, you do all this extra work because you want to share life lessons that you have learned through being a fan of this skater. These blog posts take forever, but it's worth every second, because it gives you a reason to indulge yourself in your favorite skater. THE MOST ENJOYABLE RESEARCH PROCESS EVER!!! :agree2:

When you hear "St. Patrick day" and the first thing on your mind is: Patrick Chan?
