I mean, practice is one thing, official comps are a different beast altogether. Isn't it very uncommon to have comps in the morning? Oh well, NBC poured billions into the Olympics, gotta satisfy them I guess... Anyway, at least there is a day in between like you said, so that's good. PS: the ladies got the normal schedule, so heh PS2: it is very courageous of you to say out loud that team events are lame... Link to post Share on other sites

We'll see how things go. Although it is still way too early but happy birthday May your future birthday be full of joy (and things work in Yuzu's favor if he goes, no matter what) Link to post Share on other sites

I would love to go too. But who knows what the state of the world will be like then. Also as an American, not sure I'll be let in anywhere anytime soon Well, there was Sochi... Also, isn't the US going to release vaccines next month? Be confident Link to post Share on other sites

Heh, yeah, but iirc the problem wasn't just the early mornings, but the fact that the press conferences the previous day went very late, so the top 3 men didn't get a lot of sleep. hence they all skated poorly...

We'll see how things go. Ooh, our birthdates are just different by a few days. I hope to go too but will have to see how the pandemic plays out. 2022 seems far but more than half a year has gone and there is no improvement this year. I kinda resign myself to the fact that travelling may not be possible for the next 2 years... Link to post Share on other sites

(without having to pretend to be sick ) Will you be able to roll over your unused leaves for many years? i can only bring forward 7 days to next year so... but it was only last year that I negotiated for more annual leaves and now... they are of no use. I will forever be grateful that we still get to fly for 4CC this year. 4 minutes ago, rockstaryuzu said: And we'll all have enough money saved, because who's spending these days? Well... I’m not so sure... I was playing with t-mall and apparently a watch is now on it’s way to me. I’m still sceptical the order went true. I shall believe when I see the actual goods delivered.

I like the emphasis on "the" watch like we all know what that is. There was a 3rd sale on 11.11. Was just testing my luck and I'm surprised my order went through. I shall see when it arrives. It's apparently sent by sea shipment. I'm not confident with the watch arriving intact LOL (also bye money) Link to post Share on other sites

river Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 And then the gala is on the 20th - that's a lot of time to ask off from work. Hopefully we can all travel by then, and we can get tickets! Link to post Share on other sites
