[edit] ohh i'm falling head over heels in love with all these charismatic men figure skaters. i've always had a soft spot for russians in all these performing sports (esp gymnastics), hence e selection below. but omg there was this 16 year old Kazakhstan boy who is like ranked 3rd right now with bloody high scores and a perfect routine with a wonderful performance flair. and then daisuke takashi who was so showy and charismatic and also a perfect routine :D AWESOME triple axle! and the swiss stephane lambiel. i love it how they're all so graceful and good performers and yet masculine at the same time. i hate those that charge around e rink like bloody ice hockey skaters [e canadian athlete -.-] [/edit]

oooh i've got a new favourite men figure skater :DDD i mean evgeni plushenko is still amazingly good and i've watched him from e last olympics. but artem borodulin, he's 20, first time on to e olympics, but my gosh his short programme just now was awesome :DDD not as good as plushenko of course, artem is still on triples. but he's only TWENTY and plushenko's like what nearing 30? so there's so much hope & future for artem :D i'm so excited to see him in e russian winter olympics in 4 years time!
