My first car was a Toyota 4Runner when I was 17. I paid for it myself. I was very happy.

I never had one day that I didn't want to be on the ice, because I always had an objective for that day. I had a rigorous plan and schedule in place that I had to adhere to. It was a step-by-step process of slowly but surely inching toward the Olympic Games and using every day as a series of goals to be accomplished.

I've always liked game shows - the competitive aspect and the character-driven personalities you see.

Did you do every single thing you could today, to be your best?

I love to shop. Clothes, electronics, and I love jewelry, especially yellow gold.

Be YOU. Don't be someone else. YOU are a unique individual. Be proud... rock it loud.

Do I feel any pressure as the most decorated Winter Olympian in American history? None at all. The only pressures that I know I face are those of how to pay it forward: How can I continually make a positive impact in people's lives, help others achieve their dreams, create their own Olympic mindset, creating champions within themselves?
