I'm trying to stay as calm as possible and focus one day at a time, but when reality sets in, I feel everything: anxiety, excitement, nerves, pressure and joy.
From Shawn Johnson
Stay strong. Stand up. Have a voice.
I was at the Olympic Games winning medals and I still doubted my image. I doubted what I looked like. That's sad.
I don't feel like a star; I never have. I don't feel like a star; I never have. I always feel like I'm the young one, I'm the small one. I always have someone to look up to, and I think it helps me with motivating myself.
A comeback in gymnastics is almost impossible in itself.
I have a lot of expectations and a lot of goals I want to fulfill, but the biggest dream is still to make the Olympic team for London.
Of course, when you're training your whole life to get to the Olympics, you train for gold.
Gymnastics taught me everything - life lessons, responsibility and discipline and respect.
My knee is almost back to normal. I am back in training.
We're taught at such a young age that you can always be better and that you're never perfect and that you're never good enough.
