<p>Oh my gosh!!! I love spelling bees. I almost made it to the nationals but got knocked down by a tough word!!! Oh well, it was great though.</p>
<p>Woah, super bump! I love spelling bees, too. I wish there were spelling competitions in high school.</p>
<p>I know i wish they had them too :\ I was a contestant in the Scripps National Spelling Bee in '07 though. :)</p>
<p>^ Is that the year where that Katherine girl won? Kerry? I forgot her name ;/</p>
<p>No, it’s the year that Evan O’Dorney won.
…and then he went on to win the International Math Olympiad and Intel Science Talent Search. lol</p>
<p>OMG I remember seeing that guy lol. Did you ever speak to him :0?</p>
<p>Akeelah and the Bee <3</p>
<p>@bananasoup: lol probably, but i don’t remember. he seemed a little too nerdy lol. plus, i met him before he was ever famous…so he was just another regular speller :p</p>
<p>@CSIHSIS BEST MOVIE EVER! lol</p>
