I can't wait to see you next season, Mao Asada. I'm pretty sure that you have something exciting in store for all of us. It's amazing how you can be so passionate and dead serious about your sport. I really admire you for it.
I can't wait to see how well you do your programs, either. Although I'm not exactly sure if choosing Tatiana Tarasova as your choreographer for your short program was the best decision, especially since the Russian coach's style and choice of music proved to be a little too heavy for your skating style (and our taste), we still believe that your amazing talent will shine through.
Getting Lori Nichol back is a nice move, Mao. The seasoned choreographer understands your skating style. I just hope she gives you a program better than the Claire de Lune program that she did in 2008. We want to see more fluid, graceful, soft movements, side by side your formidable, explosive jumps. Lori knows Yuna's programs, too, so I know she will give you a program that would bring the audience to their feet, or better yet, bring them to tears.
I'm literally shaking with excitement, waiting with bated breath for the Grand Prix series. Yay!
For the meantime, I, together with my fellow Mao Asada fans, will delight myself with your FS music—"Liebestraum" by Franz Lizst. Everytime I hear this song, I remember American figure skater Nicole Bobek, because it's the same music that she used in 1998. Oh did I mention that she was magical at the 1998 US Nationals? I am confident that you can give more justice to this beautiful music, Mao.
