I got a cabbage… No really, for all of the medalists they had these cabbages. And it was really really strange.<\/p>\nI got a cabbage… No really, for all of the medalists they had these cabbages. And it was really really strange.<\/p>\n
So today’s morning wasn’t as bad as yesterday’s. I woke up around 6:30. No need for any ninja shenanigans cause Devin was already awake. So I went through the morning routine of breakfast, shower, etc. and then had to work on my hair. My goal and product was a Latin look with a hint of 8th grader wearing a little too much Axe Body Spray.<\/p>\n
The practice this morning felt great despite that it was basically a war zone-but you know, Americans move for no one . In fact I think that since we were battling for the right of way help me not worry about all the little things.
I was blatantly unaware of the fact that we actually had time to go back to the hotel before the event. It really hit me that we were almost done when I walked in on Devin packing. I got most of my things packed and had a nice nap before the event.<\/p>\n
Getting to the rink, warming up, changing and everything kind of became a blur. I just noticed before we got on that we were about to actually compete our freedance!!!!! GAHHHHH!<\/p>\n
It was amazing. The best I’ve ever felt on the ice before. Everything was so comfortable and just flowed from one thing to the next. I did begin to feel a little winded at the start of the circular but the sun started to shiny onto the ice and it really gave me the boost I needed.<\/p>\n
The rest of the day was surreal. It’s quite amazing to go from middle of the pack last year to international medalists. I’m still really trying to grasp it.<\/p>\n
The only highlight after that really was my fabulous hair during the men’s long program.<\/p>\n
