“One of the best feelings in the world is knowing after a long day that I did everything I possibly could, I never want any regrets.” - Aly Raisman” — interview with Tricia Christ (http://gamclover.tumblr.com/)


“I’m happy but I still feel like I have a lot to improve on. I wasn’t that nervous before bars, so at least I’m getting better there. I have to show improvement every time we have these competitions. I hope that I’ve proved myself, but I try not to think about that because I always want to improve myself every time I see them. I always want to let them know they can trust me and I want them to trust me when I do my gymnastics. I just kind of use that as motivation when I’m at the gym - always work hard and prove readiness.” - Aly Raisman” — Aly Raisman - interview in examiner. com (http://gamclover.tumblr.com/)
