element felt gave last performance pleased sort
I'm very pleased with my performance, I felt I gave it all I had. I'm sort of relaxed, but if I could, I would like to do the last element again.
anxious definitely ice olympic ready strong
I'm definitely anxious to get back out there, because I feel really strong and ready to go. I can't wait. I think it's important to be out there on the Olympic ice and feel comfortable with it and kind of get your bearings straight.
clean good
I'm just going to try to do a clean long. Right now, I feel pretty good about going for a medal.

This blows the rest of the programs out of the water.
definitely earned good since track
Definitely she's earned it. She has a pretty good track record. Since I don't have to make the decision, I'm glad.
bad bit less major mistake spin
The mistake on the combination and the one combination spin was kind of slow, and I can do my spins a little bit better. I didn't really feel that bad after the mistake because it wasn't a major mistake. I still got the combination off. With being sick, you have less energy.
awesome happy
I am so happy with myself; it's an awesome feeling.
crazy dreaming
It's just crazy because I've been dreaming about this a very long time. I just feel like, 'Is it even real?' It's just awesome.
best good
It wasn't one of my best programs. But it was pretty good for my first Olympics.
figured fun hit jump worlds
I just figured this was my first worlds so just have fun with it, and when I hit my first jump I was like, 'I can do it.
bad major mistake
I didn't feel that it was that bad of a mistake because it wasn't a major mistake.
ahead brought mistake program
I got a little ahead of myself, and I had to do a three-turn between them. I don't think that one mistake brought the whole program down.
good judges might work
I think the judges know what they're doing. What I put out there is what they scored me on. I might have some things to work on, but I think the judges did a good job.
gold lifetime maybe performance rule skate trying
I think that if I skate really well and give the performance of my lifetime ... maybe I could (win gold). I'm not going to rule it out, but I'm just trying to think about what I need to do right now.
