Flossy

Waseda announced weeks before that the livestream of the graduation ceremony that Yuzuru was listed for, would be held on 20 Sept at 10am. He was not present oc. Only 2 recipients from each faculty course were invited and they were distanced throughout the auditorium as were the dignitaries on stage. I stayed awake until 2am UK time and it was special to know that he would be watching it too. The chancellor’s speech was very applicable to Yuzu as it emphasised that Waseda mission was to prepare students to be able to go out into the world with the skills to make it a better place and he’s already done that. There was a rendition of the Waseda song so I know how to pronounce Wassy da after hearing the name sung many times. In the morning we had Prosecco and orange juice, and prawn cocktail which is a favourite for a celebration brunch. At the time there was lots of Twitter activity and congratulations, even the manufacturer of the equipment used for the Motion Capture, contributed. But the Cameroon newspaper sure brought back some good memories of a kinda surreal middle of the night experience

Salaries and benefits for 14.7 ISU Employed staff in 2016 was Euro 2 million, an average of 134000 each. Total financial assets euro 225 million. And they can’t employ efficient staff to put out and proof read a bio on the most important figure skater ever. It’s a calculated insult which they already pulled off by completely omitting Yuzuru’s details in Torino GPF event program bio and repeating another skaters details instead.
