Midterm exams are this week. I actually shouldn't even be on here right now 'cause I have a lot of studying to do. Do any of you guys have exams coming up too?

Well, I have a big school spelling bee coming up this Friday on the 21st. I think it's the annual Scripps spelling bee thing. I'm really nervous and I keep on forgetting how to spell the words. Do you guys have any ideas how to help that?

Ooh! I was in a spelling bee. I didn't emerge the victor, though, because I spelled 'casserole' wrong. How stupid is that? Ugh. Well, anyways, Pony, I'd suggest saying the words out loud a bunch of times - like when you're singing, and that one song gets stuck in your head from listening to it a lot.

Midterm exams are when teachers take everything you learned from the first two semesters and combine it all into a two-hour test. We also have final exams which is the last two marking periods in one test.

Have you ever watched Akeelah (I think I spelt her name right) and the Bee? It's about a spelling bee too and the girl is a wicked speller. She like has to study these words for a spelling bee and she finds out that she remembers them better if she is jump roping! And she actually ends up jumping an imaginary rope one stage during the bee! Maybe that would help, pony! lol
