FSOBrittney: well, no... i just don't concentrate on all of that, i understand that they are the up and comers and all, but it is just something that i don't worry about bc i know what i can offer to the sport and the media is just always looking for a story (aka andother Tara Lipinski) anyways

llpatte: sluterulz, last question!
SluteRulz: Hi Brittney and Brad! I think you are both wonderful skaters and thanks for answering our questions! My question is for Brittney: Do you feel that with all the media attention on the younger skaters like Sarah & Naomi, do you think it's unfair to skaters like you, Amber & Angela, or do you think it actually helps by maybe giving you ladies a chance to "sneak up" and have a great 2 programs and grab a spot on the podium?
FSOBrittney: no, it doesn't bother me...i am happy that the sport is going to the next level...i don't let it get to me bc i know what i can offer to the sport and what i can do, and the media always wants a story, i can only go and do what i do everyday!

FSOnline: If you wish to ask a quesiton, please submit it at the window above the chat....
FSOnline: If you wish to ask a quesiton, please submit it at the window above the chat....
FSOnline: We are getting some stragglers....and will begin in about 2 minutes!
FSOnline: Please stay tight and after the chat we have a special announcement regarding Jenny's website!
FSOnline: ************
FSOnline: Welcome to the FSOnline Chat with Jenny Kirk!
FSOnline: Jenny has arrived and would like to say hi to everyone!
fsojenny: Hi!
fsojenny: How ya doing?
fsojenny: Thank you for coming to my chat

FSOnline: We have recieved questions prior to the chat and we will begin!
FSOnline: Sara from NY asks: Jenny, how many times have you dreamed of winning a gold medal?
fsojenny: Well everyday while I am skating I always have a goal in the back of my head
fsojenny: and usually that goal is what keeps me to skate hard everyday
fsojenny: each day the goal might be different
fsojenny: but it is always to go on and skate well and and hopefully win my next competition

Richard: Jenny do you have any pets?
fsojenny: I have one cat, skybow
fsojenny: i dont really like him that much though hehe

FSOnline: Hello to everyone!
FSOnline: We will begin the chat now!
FSOnline: Is everyone ready for the questions?
FSOnline: Jess asks: Jenny: Is your favorite movie, Ever After? And is that why you chose it for your long program music?
BmcC102: I loved the music!
fsojenny: Well I really did enjoy the movie Ever After. However I didn't chose my music. My coach and choreographer, Mary Scotvold chose it for me. She likes to listen to a lot of CDs and she really thought that the music from that movice was great and that made us decided to go with it. I've seen the movie a lot, and really love it!
fsojenny: movie sorry
fsojenny: not movice

BmcC102: lol
FSOnline: Thanks Jenny! Next Question:
FSOnline: Kelley asks: Do you have a special diet? Do you eat junk food like everyone else? :)
fsojenny: hehe I **LOVE**junk food! I try to watch what I eat and I generally eat okay. I do like my sweets, though.

BmcC102: sorry to interupt, but where is Colette?
FSOnline: Colette will be joining us shortly!
FSOnline: Her and Jenny are together so only one can chat at a time!
FSOnline: Devon asks: Jenny, what are some of your goals for next season?
fsojenny: I have started training for next season. I am in the process of getting two new programs and I am really working hard on my stroking and spins. I am also working on new triple triple combinations. I am looking forward to getting a "new look" to my skating
Richard: what's your favorite candy
BrianR: I think one question at a time is best :-)
FSOnline: Please submit all questions using the form above....We are going in the order they were recieved!
FSOnline: Thanks Richard!
fsojenny: I like starbursts (sorry Lisa I had to respond :-))

FSOnline: lol, no problem Jenny
FSOnline: Jamie asks: Hi!!! i was woundering how long it took you to get your axel consistent ? Thanks!
fsojenny: It took be a couple of months. The axel wasn't that hard of a jump for me to get. I actually landed my first one! But the salchow was harder for me to get consistant. It's funny because now salchows are my best jump!

FSOnline: llana asks: Jenny, I've been a supporter of you since I saw you skate at Simsbury, Easterns in '98. You were a Novice then and I could see that you were headed for success.
FSOnline: What impresses me is how you just do these perfect programs when it counts. What do you do to prepare yourself mentally for competition?
fsojenny: O thank you Ilana! Well before every competition I tell myself that I control what I do on the ice. It is silly for me to miss stuff when I know that I do it all the time in practice. It seems that when I tell myself this I am able to become more confident and skate well when it counts.

FSOnline: Mike asks: Jenny, when is your next competition? Will it be televised?
fsojenny: My next competition will probably be in the fall of next year. I don't know what it will be yet or whether or not it will be televised.

FSOnline: AudioPlanet asks: How did it feel to win against Sasha Cohen, who placed higher than you at Nationals?
fsojenny: Well I don't really think about winning over someone. I just think about winning in general and that felt really great :) In every competition you can't think about beating one person. All you can concentrate on is skating well for yourself and I thought about that and that is what I am happy with.

BrianR: haha
FSOnline: Iszie asks: What type of boots and blades do you wear?
fsojenny: I wear SPTeri custom boots and Pattern99 blades.

FSOnline: Sha asks: Any advice for landing triples?
fsojenny: Well the advice that I would give for any jump is that you really need to commit to it. If you go in without the mindset of knowing that you may fall hard you will never land any jump. I always think about bending my knees before every jump and that seems to help me. All in all just a lot of practice and hard work makes landing any jump a reality.
fsojenny: Wait I messed up!
fsojenny: lol
fsojenny: You have to go in knowing that you are going to fall
fsojenny: that will help you

FSOnline: Well put Jenny, Thanks! Liz asks: When is your next competition, and are you doing anything that will be televised?
fsojenny: Okay I think this was asked already but my next competition is in the fall and I don't know if it will be televised or not.

FSOnline: same question - different person - oops!
fsojenny: hehe i c

FSOnline: Jenna asks: Jenny, what was the feeling you got when you won Junior Worlds?
fsojenny: Oh the feeling was so great! I felt so happy and I really felt relieved that all the hard work I had put in training for the competition had payed off. It was one of the best feelings in my life!
FSOnline: ************* To all chatters, please submit your questions in the logo screen above using the form!
FSOnline: Matt asks: jenny are you going to put any pictures of you and your medal on the website?
fsojenny: Sure if you want me to! That sounds like a good idea, thanks Matt!

FSOnline: Wayne asks: Who are your favorite skaters?
fsojenny: My favorite female skaters are Midori Ito, Kristi Yamaguchi, and Tara Lipinski
fsojenny: for male skaters I like Kurt Browning, Ilia Kulik, Paul Wylie, and Todd Eldredge a long with many others

FSOnline: Elizabeth asks: Jennifer, Do you plan on making it to Worlds next season?
fsojenny: Well worlds next year are a long way away. Right now I am not thinking about that. I am thinking about getting my new programs and new jumps. Hopefully I will make it but a lot can happen from now until then.
FSOnline: Hadas asks: Jenny, in what way has skating affected your friendship with Colette, for the postitive?
fsojenny: I think skating has really made us become closer friends. We help each other on and off the ice with issues having to do with skating. We always talk to eachother about our problems with skating and help eachother become stronger mentally.

FSOnline: Jenny, how old where you when you landed your first triple? And do you consider yourself more of an artistic skater or more of an athletic skater?
fsojenny: I landed my first triple when I was 11. I think of myself as a little bit of both. I really love to jump and I think that my jumps have sort of come before my artistic side of my skating. Right now that is what I am working on harder but I did do a lot of ballet so I am artistic as well. I just feel I need to work a little bit harder to bring it out in my programs.

FSOnline: Colin asks: Jenny, do you have a boyfriend?
fsojenny: haha no I don't have a boyfriend right now

FSOnline: Brian asks: If you get a quad salchow consistent will it possibly show up in your program or is it too big of a risk?
BrianR: that was fast, lol
fsojenny: I think if I get it consistent then I will definetly put it in my programs. It is too big of a factor not to atleast try it! That would be very exciting!!

BrianR: :-)
BrianR: hehe
fsojenny: Richard, hi

Richard: hi
FSOnline: Lima bean asks: Jenny,, what are your Easter plans ?
fsojenny: Well for Easter I am planning to go to my cousins house and have lunch with my family. I will also go to church and do our annual easter egg hunt at my house.

FSOnline: Richard asks - Have you chosen your new music for next season yet?
fsojenny: Yes I have. I have decided to skate to " The Nutcracker" for my long and this arabian belly dance music for my short
fsojenny: I dont know the name of it, though :-)

BrianR: arabian belly dance sounds fun!
fsojenny: It is! I love it!

lisam: lol arabian belly dance
Richard: will you wiggle your belly?
BrianR: haha
lisam: that's cute
fsojenny: of course!

BmcC102: you should!
Richard: haha
BmcC102: haha
fsojenny: I have to be authentic and do their moves!

LiLqTsK8r3: lol
BmcC102: you are perfect for the role!
fsojenny: lol

LiLqTsK8r3: yes you are!
FSOnline: We have one more question for Jenny....Then we will bring Colette on board! As we noted before, Colette and Jenny are together and will be chatting with the FSO Jenny name!
fsojenny: okay
FSOnline: Last Question:
FSOnline: Tori asks: Jenny, you really proved yourself last season and I am extremely proud of you! What do you feel is the single most important thing you must do to take your skating to the next level? And perhaps medal?
fsojenny: Hmm..that is a hard question to know one thing I have to do. I think it is *very* important for me to continue to stay consistent! That is what I think has set me apart from other skaters. I also will need to work on my speed, stroking, and jumps as well.

FSOnline: Special Announcement: To go with the new design for Jenny's website, we have a special multimedia addition to add tonight....Please send an email to updates-request@figureskatersonline.com with the subject filled in as: subscribe so you will hear about the latest updated when we add it

fsojenny: It was so exciting for me!

FSOnline: Devon asks: Colette, what are some of your goals for next season? and Jamie asks: What are your plans for for skating next year - in terms of levels? Do you plan on moving up?
