american-athlete areas best eating favorite girls giving help hope
I hope to show girls that eating smart, without giving up their favorite foods, can help them be their best in all areas of their lives.
best chance earn everybody girls hard job olympic pick skaters spot three worked
It's hard for the girls here and everybody has worked so hard to earn a spot on the team. But it's the U.S. Olympic Committee's job to pick the three skaters who have the best chance at the Olympics.
empty girls weird worry
It is a little weird without her here. It's kind of like me and all these little girls. It's a little empty without her here, but I've got some of my own things to worry about right now.
girls hard olympic worked
I think it's hard for the girls here and everyone who's worked so hard to make the Olympic team.
feels girls weird
It feels a little weird without Michelle. Just me and all these little girls.
create dresses fun girls good john pink sick trying
John was sick of having little girls in pink dresses who were just trying their best. He would try to create controversy. It was not always good for me, but it was fun for him.
hard people top
In a way it kind of humanizes the sport to see that people can be at the very top of the sport and have hard times.
bad deal edge gives good hard icon life people persevere seen top
In a way it kind of humanizes the sport. She is someone that has been an icon that's always been there, and you have always seen her hard edge and she's always competed and done well. And to see that people can be at the very top of the sport and can also have hard times just humanizes it for other athletes. To know there are good times and there are bad times, and you have to persevere and kind of deal with what life gives you.
checked fact given jumping merely weight
I like the fact they give weight to spins, spirals, footwork, transitions. Something that was merely checked off before and jumping was given all the weight. For me, I'm very appreciative of the new system.
best build holding last prepare realized
The best way I can prepare is to build up and be my best. What I've realized over the last two years is the only thing holding me back from being my best is me.
great work
It was great that she tried, but things don't always work out.
competition free strong time tonight
I'm going to take in tonight. It's a very strong competition. I'm going to take it one day at a time and do the same thing as I did tonight (in the free skate).
feeling last
I'm not feeling any pressure. We're used to being the very last in the spotlight.
I'm really excited. I think it was a gift. I'm very pleased.
