ADVICE | ON THE JOB | GOAL GETTER

Spelling champ says winning Bee is harder than neurosurgery--probably

 
We’re thrilled to pieces for the newest Scripps National Spelling Bee star, Snigdha Nandipati. Snigdha, 14, started spelling on the way to kindergarten every morning with her father, the Associated Press reports. He would give her words he saw on billboards and road signs, and she would do her best to spell them correctly. In third grade, she began spelling competitively, and the rest is history.

 

 

This year’s Scripps Bee was a record-breaking one. The competition, which started last week, featured the youngest speller in the Bee’s history, 6-year-old Lori Anne Madison. But it was Snigdha who triumphed with the word “guetapens,” which is an ambush or a trap—bonus points for including that one in your next essay!

 

Snigdha dreams of being a doctor, but according to her Mom, she thinks that’ll be a cakewalk after competing in the spelling bee. For now, though, we hope she’s relaxing and enjoying her hobbies—coin collecting and Sherlock Holmes, natch.

 

Rock on, girlie!

So yesterday I read "Of Poseiden" by Anna Banks. It was absolutely amazing!! I googled it and found she just finished writing her sequel so it probably wont be out for awhile...Point is do you think your going to advertise it because I cant find a release date anywhere! Oh, anybody please check it out it was so interesting, the romance reminded me of twighlight sometimes.

I need a nice hairstyle for my 8th grade graduation tonite. I have wavy shoulder length hair and usually I put it in a ponytail so i don't want to do that or let it down because I h8 hair in my face. Plz respond ASAP

 

Hey Girl!

There are so many cute ways to wear your hair! You could braid it--all of your hair OR two small braids and clip them in the back. You could also do half up-half down because this still lets you have your hair down, but keeps it outta your face. Whatever you do, I'm sure it will look great!
