Believe in your dreams and surround yourself with people who nurture and believe in your dreams as much as you do. Sometimes the journey can be lonely, but fortunately, @MaiaShibutani and I have always had each other.

When someone tells you that you can’t do something or that your success will be limited because of how you look, or who you are, keep moving forward. Set yourself apart by finding a way to utilize your strengths. Never stop believing in yourself.

We have become successful BECAUSE we are siblings and family. Not in spite of that fact. We have challenged ourselves to grow, innovate, and embrace what makes us different from other teams BECAUSE our differences are what make us unique.

Throughout our career (14 years and counting), @MaiaShibutani and I have had to, and will continue to push past stereotypes, labels, doubters, and cynics.

Being so “different” could have been a warning sign... but we were 9 and 12 years old and didn’t see ourselves as “different”. We were just having a blast skating together.

@MaiaShibutani @Olympics When we started skating together, @MaiaShibutani and I didn’t see any teams on the ice that looked like us. There weren’t too many sibling teams either.

Last night was a dream that became a reality. @MaiaShibutani and I have worked so hard for this! Proud to be the first ice dance team of Asian descent to win a medal at the @Olympics. (THREAD)

Woah! That was awesome. So proud of @MaiaShibutani and excited that we went out there and did our thing!

.@MaiaShibutani and I didn’t march in the #OpeningCeremony. We missed being with our @TeamUSA teammates, but it was important for us to get good rest before we start competing. We still got into our uniforms and took pics with our friends before they left for the Olympic Stadium.

THIS IS THE BEST HAIR/MAKEUP TUTORIAL I’VE EVER SEEN!
Ok. It’s the only makeup tutorial I’ve ever seen. But, I helped edit it so I know it’s good... and entertaining. twitter.com/maiashibutani/…

I still react this way when I eat something really really good.

Find yourself someone who looks at you the way I look at a giant box of sandwiches.
