I got Romeo and Juliet 1.0 (there is a 2.0 but it uses different music cuts and choreography.) I suppose it means I’m dramatic as hell and I scream a lot (which y’all already know about the screaming). R&J 1.0 is an awesome routine with choreographed falls and screaming I definitely recommend watching it as well.
Anyways, feel free to let me know what you guys get and if you need a link to a video of your result let me know too and I’ll do my best to hook you up.
The first time a Buzzfeed quizz was actually kind of accurate :’D (I took it two times with my alternative answers and got the same result)
You got: Chopin: Ballade No. 1
Congratulations!
You are Chopin. You are sensual, commanding, reliable, and
introspective. Sometimes you might get a little forgotten around more
extroverted types, but when the going gets tough, you are the friend
that everyone leans on for support.
I love that program – but lbr, I love them all :’D ❤
I got Hope and Legacy!
“You are Hope and Legacy. You are shy and introverted, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t packed with a powerful voice that speaks out at the right time. You have a very strong sense of right and wrong, and specifically, you feel that everyone deserves kindness, and it is this belief that sometimes draws you out of your shell to help others.“
Figure skating turns and steps can be identified by the marks produced by the skater’s blades on the ice when the turns or steps are executed.
The counter, rocker, bracket, three turn, loop, twizzle, choctaw and mohawk are turns commonly used in figure skating step sequences. They are “turns” because they enable the skater to change directions.
Yuzu “Thank you. I received so much support and encouragement. The fans who have supported me since my childhood time, junior age, or since Sochi. And of course those who saw my performance for the first time in this Olympics. Those people who watched me live, on TV, on radio or even who didn’t watch. They sent me so much of their heart. Winning two consecutive Olympic golds was tough, but the support from all the fans raised the value of this medal. The voices and messages of celebration from many people keep coming in, since the moment of the gold medal and even now. Their voices become my happiness. I really hope my happiness will become their happiness too. The future is not planned yet, but I would like to challenge many things so that I can make you happy and smile with my skate. Thank you very much.”
***** (I) Mr Hanyu, how about becoming the captain of the next Olympic team?
Yuzu “Um… um… um.. I didn’t mean that when I said challenge, so now I am a bit lost. (laughter) But if I am asked to take that position in the next Olympics, it is a great honour of course. I understand that you would not get that offer without solid achievements. Now I am feeling that I should strive for building that up first.. or let’s say I am feeling like the fire is set on my back.
***** (I) Please tell us if you were impressed by other Japanese team mates.
Yuzu “First of all, as a skater myself, I am proud that we won many medals in the skate events. I am happy that I could get one of the medals too. Also, on the hill Mr Hirao took his second silver medal. Ms Takanashi got a medal too. The curling team got their first medal. There were so many ‘first-times’. Our ‘captain’ (Ms Kodaira of women’s speed skating) got her gold medal too. For Mr Kasai, it is his 8th Olympics. We, figure skaters, could get gold and silver together that is the first time too. It was like all the hard work of team Japan was getting paid off gradually, and it was very impressive and encouraging. There are many athletes who are senior to me and many people were watching many events. A lot of courage and emotions came over me by watching them as just one of those spectators.”
***** (I) What are the most memorable things to you during this Olympics? Such as the food you liked, events you enjoyed watching.
Yuzu “I would not comment on food, I am not very interested in food and cuisine so my comments would be quite boring. As for events I enjoyed watching…. um… curling, short track, team pursuit, ski jump, mogul, and half pipe.”
(I) I saw you were doing speed skating? (t/n. having fun during gala rehearsal)
Yuzu “That was short track”
(I) May I ask why you were doing it?
Yuzu “Well I know some people would say don’t do such things when I am injured… but during the training time by taking painkillers I couldn’t do anything fun. I had to restrict myself to heal my ankle. And although I felt certain happiness for being able to do jumps again, I wanted to simply enjoy skating itself. When I watched the short track, I felt ‘oh I want to do this!’…that’s why I did it.”
****** (I) You just mentioned that there was nothing fun during your training time. But from now how do you like to reward yourself or do you have things in your mind you want to resume again?
Yuzu “This gold medal is good enough as my reward. Since I could win this gold medal, people celebrated it for me, being happy for me, and I am here now….they are all my rewards. I am not expecting anything more. But I have to focus on my rehab now. It will surely be a tough time. And I may feel down sometimes by thinking about things I can’t do. But I hope to move forward by overcoming all those rough times. ”
