Scores/Starting orders.

Finnish Skating Union on twitter, who will be tweeting live scores! #ft2012

There's no livestream (WE THINK?) which is sad. BUT! YLE (Finnish TV) will be broadcasting 'highlights' of the men's FS here at 10:50am EDT on Sunday.

Schedule of events, broke down for easier reading on my tumblr

I WILL NEVER BE READY. Ugh, I need to check the UK-Finland time difference to work out how I'm going to fit this in with Freshers' Week. Don't think I've got anything specific going on those days, so time difference permitting, I'll likely be doing my first lot of uni work while frantically refreshing the FSU twitter. The glamorous life of a uni student~

Finland is two hours ahead of us in the UK. I checked!

Additionally! Finnish skating union published a press release (Finnish only) where they confirmed BGJW film crew will be following Johnny to Finlandia, and that among the foreign press are film crews from two Japanese TV stations, who plan to broadcast Finlandia Trophy later this fall.

I'll try to keep an eye on cameras at the arena and see what is and isn't being filmed.

I remember a tweet from Retribution Media on the first night of BGJW 2 saying something like "six years and counting" (sorry, I don;t have time to find that tweet now), which suggests to me they keep on filming! :)

Not enough anti-anxiety meds available to deal with my nerves. And why am I not home in Finland, why????? *sobs* I've sent my niece to the Saturday event as my proxy though :P

Oh my God, I can't believe it you guys, he's competing for the first time since he insta-converted me into a skating fan. So many feelings I can't even tell you. It's so aggravating that there's no stream, I'll be sitting at work hyperventilating and page refreshing like a maniac.
