enjoy fun talk
We talk about everything. She just said, 'Have fun and enjoy everything,' which I have been.
family fun great ice knows maybe
She said to just have fun with everything. And I feel like I went out and had fun. It's great she's been here with my whole family and been so supportive. Now that I'm on the ice and she's up in the stands, I know how she feels. Maybe she knows how I feel, too.

She (also) says to have fun and just enjoy everything. That's what I've been doing since I got here.

She just said I should have fun with everything I've been doing.
biggest experience fun knowing last learning olympics sad senior step
I'm a little sad it's over. This whole experience has been so much fun actually, not knowing what to expect. It's been the biggest learning experience. It's my first Olympics and my first senior international. It's been a big step up from last year. I'll take a lot away.

My whole family is so supportive, including Sarah. They're all going to be here watching. ... Sarah said to have fun and just enjoy. That's what I've been doing since I got here.

I had fun here, except for the part when I was sitting on the ice.

The first part, I thought was going pretty well. After I fell, I felt as though I should just have fun with everything. This is the Olympics, and it might be a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
enjoyed feels glad michelle opportunity skater
I've been here a week-and-a-half, but it feels like a year. Michelle is such an accomplished skater and I thought it was important for her to have every opportunity to be here. I'm just glad I had the opportunity to come here and have the experience. It has been so much fun. I've just enjoyed every minute.
against both figure
Both of us are really competitive people, which is probably why we're in figure skating. We were never really competitive against each other; we never competed against each other.
awesome felt hope next stay time
It felt awesome to be No.1. Let's hope next time I stay there.
beating feels somebody submissive totally
It could totally make her really submissive in the future. She feels like she already has to be around somebody who is beating on her. That's scary.
decision feeling good great home nationals standing train whatever
I thought just standing on the podium at nationals was such a great feeling for me to be third. Whatever decision they make, I think it will be a good one. I'm going to go home and train because you never know what will happen.
good
From his expression, I could tell it was really good news.
