Omg guys, my parents used to never do interviews because they’re super shy but they’re the cutest.

The news of @Tenis_Den ‘s murder hits especially hard for me since I used to train with him. His commitment to his training was something I always admired. It’s hard to believe he is no longer with us and that he’ll no longer be able to share his talents with us.

“Secondly, I would love to do an episode where Jake Peralta and Mirai Nagasu chase an archvillain across a frozen-over parking lot, and just when he thinks he’s gotten away, Red Gerard and Charles Boyle snowboard out of nowhere and take him down.” . Dream goals.

I wanted to nail another triple axel on Olympic ice but unfortunately I didn’t even get a chance to when I hit a rut in the ice. Sometimes you just have to take it all in with a smile on your face.

The support from y’all is everything on a day like this. I can’t even relay to everyone how annoyed I am about how helpless I truly feel. We all pledge for clean sport but the event isn’t going to have a medal ceremony if one athlete gets top 3? What?.

Suffice to say, I won’t be at the @USFigureSkating Championships as a competitor, but I’ll be cheering everyone on from the other side of the wall!

Even with the flaws, I enjoyed my Olympic performances and have been overwhelmingly happy with the support I’ve received from everyone. I’m grateful to the @olympics for bringing my family together to watch me compete and that my grandma made a surprise visit as well!.

Four years ago when I wasn’t named to the team, I wrote this poem. Today I want to share with you a minuscule part of what it’s like to be me. It is not always the glitter and glam that it is made out to be.

Today wasn’t quite the performance I was going for but I have such a newfound respect for the Olympians all around me. It takes a huge level of mental strength to persevere during these three weeks, especially when your event is one of the last ones to go.

Thank you to everyone for cheering me on during this journey. I had such a great time and am so grateful for all of your support. Although I would have loved another week of dancing with @Dance10Alan I know that what’s most important is the experience I had and the friends I made.

Yesterday I landed four triple triple combos during the span of two shows. Today, for the television recording, I fell on every combo I went for. WHYYYYYYYYYYYY. 😭.

On the doping scandal happening in Beijing: Let’s be kind to the 15 year old who produced a positive drug test because she lives in an institutionalized system where she was most likely guided and trusted the adults around her. #Olympics.

RETIREMENT is such a big word. I may be old for figure skating, but I’m only 26, which is still young in real world terms. It just seems like the wrong word for someone who’s in their mid-twenties. 🙈.

First tweet since I’m out of the #cbbus3 . I’m so excited to tune into the Olympics. Figure skating has some scandal going on but it’s nothing like the celebrity big brother house. Olympics over Super Bowl for me 😂. I missed you @instagram you ready for some T? ♥️.

For some unknown reason, I really dislike when people say I’m an ice skater or that I’m ice skating. I always say that I’m a figure skater and that I’m going skating. Ice skating makes it sound so recreational.

Dear Kate Spade, . Although I didn’t know you personally, I loved you through your bag designs. You will be missed. Let’s also take a moment to remember how important mental health is. 🙏🏼.

Even after all the growing up I’ve had to do, Disney keeps me young at heart and their underlying message of keep believing keeps me going for all my dreams. Thanks for this magical day ❤️ Does anyone else become 5 again when Pooh is involved? @WaltDisneyWorld #waltdisneyworld

I told @RachelPlatten that “Fight Song” is one of my go to songs before I compete because the lyrics are perfect and really speak to me. I’m just dying that Rachel deigned to put my medal on. It’s been touched by greatness. #theolympicdream #celebritycrush #pyeongchang2018

I think people should keep that in mind and appreciate when a skater attempts these difficult, not to mention dangerous, jumps before bashing them because it wasn’t perfect in competition.

Really rooting for wakaba. Even when I was competing with her, I'd always get distracted by how GOOD her jumps are.
