adapted excerpt from Fierce

My mom would eventually get tired of yet another screening of a US
Championships or an invitational, but I couldn't get enough. When!
wasn't doing homework or at gymnastics practice, I was parked in front
of the TV, watching one of those tapes.
One day I want to be just like them, I thought, enchanted by the figures
flying across the screen. I had already decided that I would be a gymnast
when I grew up. Well, either that or a pop star, like Britney Spears, my
favorite singer. That sounded good, too.
As they lined up, the faces of the seven US team
members---Amanda Borden, Amy Chow, Dominique Dawes,
Shannon Miller, Dominique Moceanu, Jaycie Phelps, and Kerri
Strug--projected concentration, confidence, and strength. In their
American flag leotards, they were my Supergirls. All they were missing
were capes.
