I was thinking on giving up Facebook for 40 days (Lent for Catholics) , and then I thought, nah... I won´t last a day...

Which makes me start to wonder, what did he do in those months off ice? Only eat protein? :eek::laugh:

He says he spend the time thinking about figure skating and visualizing his routines, this guys have mental strength that most people couldn´t dream of
 
So now he's making up for his 2 months of absolute discipline by being an absolute dork. :agree:
 
His happiness is infectious. I'm still managing the jet lag and trying to catch up on all the media (was impossible while in Korea) but I'm looking forward to catching up on posting all my pics and videos. I really did have the best time. I've only ever cried once in this sport and that was Shen and Zhao's 2003 Long program at Worlds, which I attended. And then I saw Yuzu with tears in his eyes on the jumbo tron and it really sank in that he achieved his dream and I was lucky enough to be there to witness it, and then suddenly my face was wet. I flew halfway across the planet hoping to see something like that and the odds were stacked against him, but somehow he pulled it off decisively! This trip was really difficult logistically and expensive to plan, but Yuzuru's win made everything completely worth it. The universe got something right.

I'm sorry if I am mistaken, but I think I saw you on Fuji TV!! You looked so cool and your Japanese was perfect!! Thank you very much for your post and I'm very happy for you :hap10:
 
Thank you all for bringing lots of smiles here and sharing your experience! Lovely to see a front page picture of him smiling. I, too, am surprised he is able to abstain from gaming for this long! Without on ice training, I think he told reporters he was reading scientific / scholarly papers about muscles? Or something. :laugh: Incredible!

I hope his family was able to be in Korea in cognito and witness the love everyone has for him firsthand.

I hope his family was able to cheer him on as well. We did see his mom exiting onto the concourse after the free but she seemed by herself. Maybe they weren’t together or had exited before she did.
 
According the Japanese media, it was announced yesterday that Yuzu is going to close the gala?
