I think it's going to be a kind of a party night. I'm not much of a drinker, but I think I might be old enough to drink in Italy.

My goal that day was to get a sunburn. That's all I wanted. I've been walking around with jackets on, so I skated with no shirt on. (The sunburn) hurt a little, but it was epic.

I've just had this fight since I can't even remember.
attitude awesome crazy head land mellow messed olympics telling wait
It's crazy because this whole thing to the Olympics has really messed my head up because everybody's telling me how important the Olympics are. And I was like, 'whatever, just do well and go to the Olympics.' Just that having that kind of mellow attitude made me land everything. It was really soothing. I just can't wait for the Olympics now. It's been an awesome season.

It's definitely the run I've been working on for a while. It was nice to see it work.

I'm a little overwhelmed right now. I can't explain it.

Well, I just started to have some fun. Normally, I drop in and do another (move), but then I thought, 'This is the Olympics, I'll try some sprays.
