I love Pinterest! Pinterest is absolutely phenomenal when you're trying to come up with a costume design.

Skating is one of those sports you unfortunately see people get stuck in.

I'm a show pony, and I don't get to skate with girls doing triple Axels every single day. I skate with little babies who are working on their single Axels while trying not to hit them on the ice.

You always imagine everything will go so smoothly in the Olympic season.

I'm vicious. I can be nice off the ice, but on the ice, that's not where it's time to make friends.

I'm not one for neon colors.

Nothing has been easy for me... I've always had to work for everything I've gotten and everything I've accomplished.

I always loved Michelle Kwan's outfits. Most of them were designed by Vera Wang, and they're just so simple, but the fabric that they used and the way that it was sewn together look so elegant and rich.

Covergirl is my sponsor, and they have been so helpful in supplying me with their wonderful products. I love their blush, mascara and lip gloss.

I love hanging out with friends and family.

I might be more of a tomboy on the ice, but when it comes to fashion and things like that, I'm a total girlie-girl.
-
I'm a strong-headed person, and you can always tell how I'm feeling in that moment.
