What is the one TV show you can't miss?:
I don't really watch that much TV. Our cable got turned off, so I haven't watched anything in a while!

Favorite Movie:
"Casino" or "Goodfellas." I like mobster movies.

Favorite Class:
Astronomy 3

Favorite Book:
I just finished The Day After Tomorrow this past weekend. It's a really good murder-mystery. Miss Val gave it to me to read. Lena read it first, then Heidi read it, then I read it.

Last CD you bought:
Santana's Supernatural

Favorite Hangout:
The gym - I'm a gym rat.

Favorite apparatus:
It's got to be vault or bars. Vault is where I score the best - it's the fastest and you get it over with quickly - but bars is a little bit more fun.

If you could play another sport at UCLA it would be:
An outdoor sport because my freshman year when El Ni?o hit, I was living in the dorms and going to practice, and people would be coming home because their practice got cancelled, and I was so jealous.

Most memorable moment:
Competing at the 1997 World Championships. Also competing in the 1996 Olympic Trials because it was a total shock; I didn't think I was going to be there.

Best place you've ever visited:
Paris - I went there after Worlds with my mom and spent a week there and did all of the tourist stuff. It was a blast.

Best event you've ever attended:
I went to a UCLA Ice Hockey game - they are a club team here. It was really different because I've never been to an ice hockey game.

If you could have dinner with one famous person who would it be?:
Jack Nicholson. He plays really interesting, random, crazy characters. Plus, he's just the best actor ever.

What is your favorite Nicholson movie?:
"One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest."

Most famous person you have met:
I've obviously met famous gymnasts - I trained with Svetlana Boguinskaya - but I've never really met any out-of-this-world famous people. You see people a lot here in LA, but I've never really met them.

In 10 years, you will probably be:
A mom.

What do you like to do outside of your sport?:
When is there any time outside of my sport?!

What word best describes you?:
Independent
