To Represent Your Country Is An Honor

When I Was Younger, I Always Dreamed Of Being A Legend, To Be Remembered In Figure Skating.

As I've Gotten Older And Grown More Independent, I Think For Myself, And That's How It Should Be.

Literally Falling On The Ice And Having To Pick Yourself Up In Front Of Thousands Of People Is Not An Easy Thing To Do. The Thing That You Learn Is To Pick Yourself Back Up, To Learn From Your Mistakes.

As An Athlete, I've Always Been Very Proud To Represent The United States.

Skating Takes Up 70 Percent Of My Time, School About 25 Percent. Having Fun And Talking To My Friends, 5 Percent. It's Hard. I Envy Other Kids A Lot Of Things, But I Get A Guilt Trip When I'm Not Training.
