“If you really put your mind to it, anything is possible.” — Mirai Nagasu

There are always moments when I think about leaving skating, but when I think about that, I'm not very smart, and I'm not very pretty, and there's nothing else that stands out about me besides my skating.

Skating becomes more important to me every year. It's obviously harder as age takes a toll on the body and the brain, and I think because of that, competing becomes much more difficult. That's why those who stick around are always so appreciative of others' skating because we know how much work goes into it.

I don't necessarily always feel happy when I'm skating.

People have drawn me, which is super cool. I'd love to print some out and put them on my wall.
