I was scared of the dark. Ohhhh, I'd do anything not to have to sleep on my own. I'd get in bed and cover myself with dolls and teddy bears.

I have my own demons and dark moods. It's weird.

When I go in to compete, whether it's gymnastics or anything else, I do my own thing. I compete with myself.

I needed to be myself and find my own identity.

I'm used to hearing myself. My own voice.

I'm afraid to go to sleep; I don't like to lose control of myself. I don't like chauffeurs, either. I like to be in charge of my own destiny.
