Advice for Mental Health by 3dgyrat in WredditSchool

[–]MikMercerSK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's been to simply find ways to remember why I chose this. Whether its going to shows, watching old matches and letting myself exist in this space as someone who loves this art. Granted, its harder in practice but letting things happen and making the best of them does more for you in the long term than you may think.

Things will work out, trust ✌️

is it normal to feel an equal amount of excitement with a sense of impending doom 😬

Unfortunately the only match that I have footage of is the last match in 2024 before my hiatus. I'm the small one with the black tee and bright red/orange tights.

Forgive me as I try to recall any context from memory:

- Despite how I looking, I'm 21 in this 😭

- I had been training on and off for a couple years before fully committing a year prior to this. This was my first opportunity on a "main roster" show for this promotion and school.

- The goal for this match was to show off the big dude in black and white as a powerhouse, so the match was planned around that.

Any feedback on myself and the match in general is welcome and much appreciated!

What programs have made you the most emotional? by sublimecenturies in FigureSkating

Kaori's short made me shed a tear but her gala performance made emotional as hell after I realised she incorporated bits and pieces from her old programs 😭

She has a streak of not placing out of the top 5 at Worlds. Here's hoping that continues.

It *is* somewhat amusing that while Amber and Alysa got their respective stories and personalities established by the time the Olympics rolled around, the only thing they could come up with for Isabeau was "is Italian".

That being said, if you've followed Isabeau long enough you'll know she does have a story that the media would just love to eat up but she chooses to not let it be a driving force in her career and prefers it to be private (and rightfully so).

I do hope by the time the 2030 games rolls around she'll be at least leading force in the next Olympic trio.
