7 days of "Junior Trophy Challenge 2014"

20th - 27th of June

Manila, Philippines.

Indonesian Team with Jeanetta Folle (Mao Asada's coach)

It was the first time i watched an ISU competition live. How pathetic isnt it but hey nothing is ever too late.

--------------------------------
Let me give a lil intermezo on how i started the ISU system..

Indonesia was only a member of the ISI system of figure skating. Im too lazy to tell the difference between ISU and ISI but the point is ISI is more to fun or recreational skating while ISU is for olympic athletes.
Just know Indonesia has became part of ISU member, it gives us figure skaters as well as coaches hope to go for a further goal. To be honest i still have a lot to learn about it.

Owkay back to the competition. We spent 7 days in Manila eventhi the competition was only 1 day but they had a training camp before it. It was Mao Asada's coach who trained the competitior! How lucky they were! I wish i could join but im too old already the max for Junior is 18.

Got an opportunity to join the training on the last day.

I learned A LOT like A LOT. For the whole 7 days each day i got sumthin new and how the skaters amazed me by their skills. I could feel their passion l, how they have had trained so hard to give the best, push themselves to the limit. Somehow it lights up the fire that had long gone inside me.

On the last day i got the chance to join the novice training session and i was feeling so excited! Hahaha cos maybe i was the youngest choreographer there.

The Junior Trophy Challenge has given me so much important things that i couldnt possibly get from elsewhere. 1 thing started to cling on my mind: You never late to start anything. Its true. Theres nothing is ever too late. It ia better to start late than to never start nothing.

So, cheer up guys! Put your chin up, pull your chest out. Do whatever you wanna do since years a go. Its not too late!
