I kind of do think of myself as a superhero and just flying high, and doing these crazy flips.

You need your mom and dad to protect you. It means they love you so much. It was awesome she was backing me up and defending me.

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.

Gold medals are made out of sweat, blood and tears and effort in the gym every day.

Don't be afraid to speak up for yourself. Keep fighting for your dreams!

I've been on a tweeting mission.

I'm not gonna lie, I love Usain Bolt and Serena Williams. What I love about Serena is that she just gets on the floor and she dominates. She handles her business very well, I respect that.
