Johnny's message to his fans


I’m so glad Johnny wrote a message to his fans in his official site !

As usual he is soooo sweet and heartfelt, and always write in his own voice, so quickly when his fans needed.



That is one of the reason why he is so loved by many of his fans world wide.

Johnny Weir - Dear My fans

( Johnny Wrote )

Title: Thank you

My dear fans,

I want to thank you all for your support in this rough, rough time. I also want to thank all of you who supported me both in Cleveland and in front of the TV set around the World.

I want to say a special thank you to the fans who brought my banners not only from Johnny's Angels America, but also from Japan and Russia as well as those of you who were involved in sending the balloons and teddy bear to my ice rink. It was such a honor to skate in such a loving environment.


(My comments)

It's so lovely and classy, he never forgot to appreciate to his fans.


(Johnny's words )
I want to apologize for the way I performed in Cleveland. I know so many of you who read this website wanted to see me at my best and win another National title as much as I did personally and I let all of us down.

(My comments )

Johnny doesn't need to apologize, he did his best he could and fought through his bad condition.


(Johnny's words)
Many people have criticized my decision to perform in the Christmas show in Seoul, and I can understand their criticism but I do not accept it.

It was my choice to perform, and had I not gotten sick, I would have been 100% for Nationals. I am not exempt from getting a stomach virus or the flu, just like the rest of you.

I can not control when I am sick and when I am healthy. Life is random and I hope everyone can understand that.

I also hope people will stop blaming a show on my Nationals performance.


It was an honor to be invited to the show in Korea and I was so happy to lend my time. 

The only thing that I am blaming my performance on, is not being healthy which is not an excuse, it is the truth. I can assure everyone that I tried my best to be prepared.


(My comments)

This his message is for his fans, so I hope anyone who is not his fan won’t bother him.

It must be very frustrated to read all the comments which are not understanding his feeling and situation and his fact which only he knows.

People will say whatever they want to think based on their belief , they will pick up even small thing to criticize.

It looks to me that‘s their hobby and the way of their stress relief. And it’s out of control.
There is no value to read all the nasty comments and articles and since the Nationals, I just shut out from all the negativities from non-fans. 


So I don’t know much what kind of comments he has received, but even between his fans, I’m so sensitive about Johnny.


I hope Johnny won’t read those comments which makes him feel bad.
Johnny was sick, that’s the fact. It was not just his mental problem.

Who knows the fact ?

Johnny.

It was clear he looked sick to me.

It’s true that life is random.

When I went to Disney worlds, I got chicken pox. When I went to Italy, I got skin allergy.

I would explain what happened, but I would never regret for going there because I had a wonderful time there, besides I didn’t expect to get chicken pox there before I went to Disney worlds.


For Johnny’s case, I have complicated feeling for this.

I understand that when he decided to attend the ice show, he was fine, and he thought it’s important for him whether it might be a tough schedule or not and he was not expected to get illness over there.


But during the trip for GPS, he had some health problems plus he was already exhausted after came back to NJ from the trip.


When I heard that he got illness in Korea before Nationals, I wished he should not go at that time.

But now, I understand that it’s not so easy to cancel the show once he promised to attend the show whether he was exhausted or not, and thinking about people who are looking forward to seeing him.




Also he wanted to help them. It was important for him.
I think this kind of thing often happened in life for everyone . Things don’t always go well as they expected.

Attending the Korean show was important for him and also he had a wonderful time there even though he had heath problem.

He is not saying that Nationals is not important for him, and Nationals is one of the most important competition for him, but he thought he could handle the schedule but it didn’t go well.

Actually, I’m glad he didn’t say anything like that “ I’m regret to go to Korean ice show. “
How Korean people would feel if he said such a thing ?
And he is honest, so I have no doubt he is telling his true feeling whether people take it different way or not.
Not only his sweetness for his Korean fans, but it was his true feeling.

I could see he looked very happy surrounded by his Korean fans in the photos , and was treated like a rock star.

I don’t think he regret about it.

Well, I don’t regret I went to Disney worlds, even I got chicken pox over there. LOL.

I also understand about his fans feeling, too. Since hearing some of his fans bought Worlds tickets to see him. Some people bought the tickets only to see him and I feel bad for them.

But many other skaters also had this kind of problem, too.
Look at Lambiel, he had been attending many ice shows, then what happened past two seasons since winning worlds in 2006 ?
In 2008, after Euro, I’ve heard that Lambiel went to ice show while Joubert went straight back to France.


But I suppose that Lambiel had a reason to attend the show, and then what happened later was that he lost medal in worlds 2008.
And some people criticized about it.

Joubert was not expecting to get back injury during the practice after SP in GPF and withdrew from it. Some people criticized him, saying that he makes too many excuse.


Daisuke was not expecting to get his foot injury before NHK and withdrew from all the competitions.

Life is random.

I agree with Johnny.

Hope he will get better soon. I will always love his skating and him no matter what.

It’s not so easy to find a great artist like Johnny to me.

He is a treasure.

Maybe because originally I’m not a skating fan, I’m a fan of great artists for any kind of subjects. Johnny is a great artist.
So, without him, figure skating is so boring to me.


(Johnny's words)

I want to publicly congratulate the medalists from our National Championships and the World team.

I hope the United States men can achieve their best results in our home country. I also hope they can manage to win three spots for the Olympic Games, as I helped achieve last year for this World Championship. It is an honor to compete with such a talented group of skaters.


(My comments)
 
Very classy comments to his competitors.I hope they will manage to win three spots for the Olympics, too. It's very important.
Johnny must have really pressure to compete last season no matter what he said about the spots since Lysacek withdrew from it. So he is naturally commenting about his experience. 


 
(Johnny's words)
 
Thank you all so much. I hope you don't lose faith in me, and I hope I can excite you all with my performances in the off-season as well as next season when we all compete with a blank slate in hopes of becoming Olympic Champion. Thank you, Spasibo, Kamsa-hamnida, Arigato, Grazie, Merci and Danke!


(My comments)

I will never lose faith in you.
Come back stronger next season, Johnny !!

You are a fighter !

Health tips from an extra-terrestrial named Bashar - from a planet called Essassani

photo credit: skyseeker Mt. Fuji via photopin (license)    Today,  I would like to write about health tips from an extra-terrestrial being named Bashar who is from the Essassani Planet .     He is channeled by Darryl Anka. Planet earth used to have beautiful clear air, but since a long time ago the air has been polluted everywhere.    and the cause of most illnesses comes from the poison in the environment we are in, with the polluted air. Nowadays, it's hard to find places where there is beautiful clean air. and in this unfavorable environment, he is suggesting how to live healthy.   Health tips 1.  Clear Oxygen  According to Bashar,  the air after storms and typhoons have gone away, is the most clean ( purified ) and is good for our bodies. However when there is an overdose of artificial oxygen by using tools such as oxygen tanks , this can cause a lack of water, and will weaken cells.   So clean natural water needs to be used in a balanced amo

Who was The Mysterious Masked Messenger who visited Mozart ?

Perhaps the most mysterious legend about Mozart is that of the " Masked Messenger ". This mysterious masked messenger is also known historically as the "Man in Gray" , "The Mysterious Messenger" , "The Gray Messenger". The story of the masked messenger was featured prominently in the movie “ Amadeus ".           Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart How much of this story is true ? When Mozart died in the early morning hours of December 5, 1791, he left his final masterpiece, the Requiem , unfinished. A few months later, a completed score of the Requiem was delivered to its anonymous commissioner. How was the Requiem completed and how would Mozart have completed it had he lived? These mysteries have tantalized musicians for over two centuries. Mozart received the commission to compose the Requiem from the “ Mysterious Messenger" in the summer of 1791.  The Messenger paid half the commission in advance,

Charm of Kenichi Hagiwara - Shoken

From Japanese Movie " Ame no Amsterdam (Rain in Amsterdam)" I've been into the late 1960s to 1970s generation since several years ago. I don't know why but I'm very interested in older generation's people, trends, lifestyle, scenery, habit, TV drama, music, films, etc..   and not so interested in new things much.  There are many new discoveries through checking out old stuff while reading and watching it, which I didn't know before. and about several months ago, I happened to find a youtube video of  a famous Japanese actor called Kenichi Hagiwara who was my favorite actor in 1970s when I was a kid. His nickname is Shoken and he is also a singer of Rock/blues music.                      Shoken( 18 years old) singing ”Legend of Emerald” Shoken was one of the super stars in Japan mainly from the late 60s generation to early 80s. When he was 15 years old,   he joined an amateur music group band called The Tempters as a vocalist.   A

Beauty skin care, Ninon de L'Enclos ‘s Secret of her young skin

Besides extra virgin olive oil, I’ve been doing a mixture of another great natural formula since two weeks ago. This information came from Ray who happened to find about Ninon de L’Enclos ’s amazing story concerning her youthful skin. According to the article, Ninon de L’ Enclos is known as a famous French beauty from the late 1600s. She kept her youthful skin until 85 years old when she passed away. Even in to her 80’s she was attracting many young men who fell hopelessly in love with her. She never published her secret of her youthful skin until the end , only telling her special friends about her secret formula. There is no photo of her, but seeing her painting in other websites, she looks in her 30’s when she was 85. According to the article, her face was as smooth and free of winkles in her 80’S as it had been at 20. She hated wrinkles and successfully kept her skin youthful , using her special secret formula. This information blew me away, and immediately

Sweet Food which does not get fat - Warabi mochi

I recently love eating this sweet food that Japanese call " Warabi mochi " which is made of 0 calories food psyllium in my coffee break time.   It's sweet food but I use Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener instead of sugar when I make it. Lakanto Monk Fruit sweetener is 0 calorie s and 0 glycemic and very similar taste as normal sugar. It is said it's derived from monk fruit, which looks like a small green gourd native to regions of China and Thailand.  It's not artificial so it is not bad for health so I feel comfortable eating it. Warabi mochi is a food which is normally made of Kinako ( soybean flour) & sugar & warabi powder and it's one of my favorite foods. However it's high calorie foods so if I eat a lot, it's easy to gain weight.   Because Warabi mochi flour is Starch and has sugar in it and is high calorie.  So I was not eating it. and then recently I found the recipe of diet Warabi Mochi which is made of Psyllium

Franz Liszt and Frederic Chopin’s friendship Part 1

Frederyk Chopin   I’m a long time fan of Chopin’s music since when I was a teenager. Started loving his music from hearing his Polonaise , then Noctunes , Etudes … Frederyk Chopin I was using one of Chopin’s Nocturnes as my background music for my answering machine when I was in my 20s. In Japan, many of his music is famous and used in many TV dramas, commercials, movies, and mostly wealthy bourgeois family scenes. My image of many of Chopin ’s music that I’ve listened to is of a cozy, bourgeois world. From almost all his music I’ve ever heard, I often pictured an elegant, wealthy family’s world or a story about a family who are living in a luxury antique style house. Many of Mozart ’s music reminds me of a social life in an older generation, a story about bourgeois world in a gorgeous luxury palace. For Liszt ’s music, his music is very variety, ranging from an image of a sweet passionate love story for couples, all the way to nightmare horror story type of mu

Franz Liszt’s dangerous love

  Franz Liszt was quite tall in his generation, standing 6 feet 2 inches tall , long blonde hair , piercing sharp eyes, pianist' long narrow and delicate hands and fingers. His body build was very slender. People who knew him described his personality as full of charm, charisma, and very knowledgeable.  And he loved brainy women. He was the consummate artist. It seems that Liszt loved dangerous love , which thrilled him and gave him excitement rather than a stable, peaceful , safe love. Franz Liszt While reading about his biography, I was wondering why he fell in love with two princesses who were already married. Marie D’Agoult He seems to have had a lot of love affairs in his life, someone found out that he had at least 26 serious relationships in his life ( besides countless other affairs ) but the only ladies he thought about marriage was with these two princesses , Marie D’Agoult and Carolyne Sayn Wittgenstein ?

Organic foods and healthy living “ You are what you eat ? “

We‘ve been enjoying organic foods since a month ago.   Because we care for our health and also organic foods taste more delicious than normal vegetables.   Recently, I really feel the famous quote  “ You are what you eat . “   is true.   Although healthy life comes from balance between mind, body, skin care, good night sleep and activities besides food life .   Health is a treasure.   Also I realized that “ good blood circulation ” is one of the most important key to keep healthy and look young skin.   After being amazed to see Styx’s ageless Tommy Shaw on TV, I started searching about “ secret of youth “.  He looks so much younger than his age.  Also, there was an interview with Styx on CNN in the morning about a week ago and they talked about what they think are the keys to longevity and a healthy life. http://www.cnn.com/video/?/video/bestoftv/2012/04/23/exp-kyra-phillips-age-against-the-machine.cnn  

”The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.” - Albert Einstein 

Originally we were all creative because all children are creative. While growing up, many children lose their creativity by seeing, reading, hearing what many grown ups do and teach. According to a book called " Goal " by Brian Tracy, "Fully 95% of children tested between the ages of three and five are rated as highly creative. Of the same children tested again as teenagers, only about 5% rated  as highly creative. What happened to them in the interim ?   As they went through school, they were taught that if you want to get along, you follow the crowd. They learned not to question or challenge the teacher or to suggest unusual ideas. In their attempts to be liked and accepted by their peers, they allowed their creativity to die down, like a fire without fuel.  " "All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once they grows up."  -  Pablo Picasso But if we don't use creativity, we lose it. It means that the more we use cre

My favorite ways of Law of Attraction Part 3 - Successful Wishing - Pierre Franckh

Pierre Franckh’s books “ Successful Wishing “ are another of my favorite books.     There are series, 1 to 6 , and are not published in English , but I did find them in a Japanese book store,  translated by a Japanese translator.   Pierre Franckh is a German actor ( Movies & TV) from 1959 – 2003, and is also a movie director and a writer.  Since 1996, he published many books and became a best selling author.  Franckh wrote based on his personal experiences from when he was a child . I love the way how he writes , it’s very easy to read and direct to the point, very clear how to do it with step by step instruction. Also importance of finding what you truly want.    Many people are actually not realizing what they really want and then when they get what they wanted,  still not feeling satisfied. Pierre said that before making your wishes and order to universe, it’s important to clear up what you really want and ask to yourself, why you w
