She skated like an angel. I'm glad she won gold. :-)

1. I agree 100%. She was marvelous. I loved how genuinely
shocked she was when she found out she won the gold.

3. That got me too...
She was skating for the pure joy of it. That's why she won. :)

2. I agree
I don't think she won just because the others fell, whatever the TV people say. She was really good.

4. My jaw dropped when she performed spins like
the one in the pic...I have no clue what they're called.
But it was as if she had suddenly turned into liquid. It was breathtaking.

6. Yes, she deserved the gold, and I'm not saying that just because
she's Japanese. :-)
