There's so much more to me than swimming. I like to go and have fun, like to go dancing, hang out with my friends.

I love swimming because racing.

One thing I won't do: I won't give up on love.

Things are moving pretty quick, and of course, the whole focus is training and getting ready and being able to prepare to be on the world's stage and hopefully do the United States proud.

You know, honestly, if a girl can make me laugh, I'm pretty much sold.

I should have been much more responsible in how I handled myself and for that am sorry.

It's not like I'm looking for a blonde or a brunette, light-skinned or dark-skinned. I feel like I give any girl a fighting chance.
