Aly Raisman

I was so uncomfortable.

High school is also so hard.

I was so, so insecure.

And then I would go to class and then I would quickly do my homework after school and then go back to the gym after.

It was just so, I was so driven.

And so like none of my friends understood, I think how,

serious I was about it like when I competed in 2012 at the Olympics um it was right after I graduated high school and I remember my high school friends were like you never told us you were like that good and I was like well I don't know what do you I'm like I don't know I didn't want to say anything but also like what did you guys think I was doing I'm like bad at this thing but I just get up every morning and go every afternoon and I just keep at it like oh

It was so intense.

But it's funny.

One of my family members admitted to my mom.

He's like, I have to admit, I always thought that he said to my mom that you and my dad were crazy.

Because he's like, I would...

He was like, I would just watch you like drive Allie to practice over and over again.

And I just thought it was so odd because I would, you know, miss a lot of days of school.

I was, you know, like traveling all over the place.

And he was like, I didn't understand how good she was.

So he's like, it took me a really long time.

And he was like, I kind of judged you.

And now he's like, I'm just telling you I don't anymore.

But we OK, hold on.
