You See The Fairy Tale - Four

In Group Lesson Number Six I Think We Learned How To Turn Backwards And Then Just Kind Of Wiggle. That Wasn't Really Skating Backward, But I Guess I Was Going In The Right Direction.

I Wanted To Learn How To Skate Backwards And They Wouldn't Help Me And They Went Off And Left Me On My Own.

I Wouldn't Say That There's Ever Been An Olympic Champion That Didn't Deserve To Win An Olympic Gold Medal.

In My Teen Years Leading Up To The Olympics, I Loved Having The Excuse To Skip Out On Parties Because Of Skating. Partying Wasnt My Thing Anyway. Mostly I Hung Out With Other Skaters. We Were All Buddies, So Its Not Like I Missed Out On Socializing. I Was Really Enjoying Myself.

I Was Just Ice Skating. I Had No Concept Of That. In Those Days You Couldn't See The Judges. I Was This Little Person On The Ice And They Were Just People That Would Stand Around The Boards.
