Biggest life-defining moments were performing ballet on stage in front of an audience and competing in her first skating competition, realizing she enjoyed the challenge ... Would appear on her own reality TV show, "Behind the Scenes With Caroline Zhang," because she thinks her life is pretty interesting ... Says what sets her apart from others is "My desire to improve, my resilience in any situation, my refusal to be intimidated, and my ability to sit on my exercise ball for eight-and-a-half minutes!" ... Says she loves to read, and her sixth-grade teacher used to say that the best way to punish her was to take away her books ... Wants to tour, coach and help animals after her competitive career ... Is a big fan of Michelle Kwan ... Listens to anything she can, from KC & the Sunshine Band to Gwen Stefani.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－上面来自usfsa.org网站，总之就是这孩子很不一般，超级爱看书，基因优良，父母均哈佛教授，武汉籍的，她多次拿总统奖学金，还写过书，是美国青少年艺术团的首席小提琴独奏手，当然她还是世界冠军in figure skating，从师李明珠，陈露的教练。她自己找的李明珠，因为她看了录像，觉得自己和陈露的风格接近。
我恰好找到了关给团子当顾问的FLUFF，做的很棒



还有今年全美的lp，在sp排第七的情况下，小姑娘坚持住了，节目后半段又是standing ovation，在美国，除了关，只有她能做到
气场这东西啊～～解说的peggy阿姨说团子对这段音乐理解的特别好，因为那个提琴是她的代表曲目，仰望啊



4.Mirai Nagasu ，中文译名——长洲未来，一听就知道是日裔美国人
去年刚欣赏我家团子时顺道认识了她，团子在全国比赛摔倒了，于是这个日裔小Loli得了冠军
当时我对她实在没感觉，就是中规中矩的，没犯什么错误
今年我一听她的SP上了70，就说什么也要看看她的节目，让我欢喜啊，又一个灵姑娘，14岁的年龄就滑14岁的东西，干净快乐的，同样感染人，技术扎实稳定


5.这么多个小豆子我都数不过来了，欧洲的除了另一个Caro其余都是大妈，所以欧锦给我印象不深
但还是很钦佩赛巴斯第安女士，上30的人了还能和小豆子们斗一斗，不简单啊，不过欧锦的美女真是多啊
今天下了美女单的认识了几个新的小豆子，有FLATT，Rachel，还带着牙套的小姑娘呢，个个身怀绝技，3－3都不在话下
不过，也许是我本人的人种观念比较顽固，我列的小豆子全部是亚裔，可能因为亚裔的身材修长，发育比较晚，腿也没那么粗，看上去比较轻盈协调吧，总之03年的休斯和去年她妹妹那种我真是看不惯

反正祝愿小豆子们顺利度过发育期，要尽量少滴影响技术水准啊

又想起了Tara Lipinski，她是最年轻的全美，世锦，奥运冠军（前两为14岁，奥运15岁）她的记录没人能破
因为早有规定说16岁以上才能参加成人比赛。想想小关也怪可怜的，98年那么完美的发挥还是被TARA抢了金牌，早规定16岁的事儿不是早就圆满了嘛，SIGH～
