Scott didn’t get a high school degree until his late 20s so it makes sense that he doesn’t think of himself as smart. Especially when he compares himself to Tessa

more school doesn't mean you're smarter. it's not like Scott was sitting in Alma's basement smoking pot til his late 20s, he was working so hard that finishing school wasn't the top priority

i don't think you can be the best on the planet at something if you're not intelligent. and there are different types -- i'm not even sure that Tessa's exceptionally book smart or academic. what she's kind of extraordinary at is discipline and focus and the ability to see past or transcend limitations - figuring out how to thread the needle and achieving what she wants. Romain said that she could be a great coach because she's an out of the box thinker where skating was concerned. she appears to be great at manifesting, but i think it's more that she lets herself imagine things that other people don't dare to dream about and then works as hard as necessary to make it happen. that's a type of intelligence that's not that common

Scott does sell himself short. i know it's a Canadian thing to be modest, but he takes it too far when he puts himself down. sometimes he pretends to know less than he does, or maybe it's more disarming and helps socially when he plays up the good ol boy part of him. but i'm not sure why he thinks he's not as smart as Tessa. he's more comfortable on the fly and more articulate speaking in public, where she needs to prepare what she wants to say and still has a tendency to sound canned. he's detail oriented and observant about things he cares about and intense about things being done correctly. she said she'd imagine lifts, and he'd figure out mechanically how it could happen - those are 2 different kinds of intelligence. i really think he's ultimately responsible for the high taste level of the programs and quality of the skating coming out of his school. that requires big picture thinking, an editor's mind, and an artistic sensibility. and he's emotionally intelligent with his students. so i don't think it makes any sense if he thinks he's not smart

Part of knowing you’re from is wondering if you would identify the small hellholes just outside of Ft Lauderdale that I grew up in. Like, do you know Hollywood? Like, Florida’s worse version of Hollywood that has the porn video store when you pull into town? Do you know about Plantation? I’m so curious

Personally, I think if you grew up in one part of Florida, you basically grew up in that entire third of the state. I’m not going to say where I actually live (stalkers on a Yandere blog, who would’ve guessed), but I crossed the seven-mile bridge so often as a kid, I kinda thought that was part of everyone’s day-to-day life and the world was just mostly ocean. I’m willing it to give it a few years, though.
