I Used To Have This

You Want To Picture Yourself Being On Top And Doing Amazing Gymnastics.

I Kind Of Do Think Of Myself As A Superhero And Just Flying High, And Doing These Crazy Flips.

Words Can't Even Describe How Much Olympic Medals Means To Me, Because Of All The Hard Work, Sacrifice And Effort I Put In At The Gym, And Also Because Of How Much My Family Supported Me And Sacrificed Their Dreams For Mine. It Also Means A Lot To Me, Knowing That I Became The First African American To Win The Individual All-around Gold Medal.

The Other Girls [in Team] Have Experience. They've Been Competing On A Lot Of International World-class Stages. They Knew What To Expect And What To Do And What Not To Do. Me And Aly [raisman] Just Gave Them Advice On The Media Side. We Said, It's Gonna Be Crazy. It's The Olympics. But It's Gonna Be Fun!

I Had To Face A Lot Coming Through This Journey, A Lot Of Sacrifices, Difficulties, Challenges, And Injuries.
