[quote=Anonymous]I was a gymnast as a child. To say I loved it, would be like the Jersey Shore guys saying drinking and sex are okay. Biggest understatement ever. My gymnastics coaches were also coaches at a nearby college, and when they started talking to my parents about the '92 Olympics they asked my father how hard it would be to get a job in Texas in his field. They were prepared to move there for me. The way my parents talked I understood that you are a gymnast as a child, so I could do this up to or maybe through college but then I'd be an adult and move on to the adult stage of life. My parents were fully-prepared to move to Texas (to train with the Karolyi's). They would have simply found a way. Just like when my brother was applying to colleges and he asked how my parents would afford Harvard they said "If you get in, we'll find a way to make it happen." They just would have made it work.[/quote]
