Back-to-Back Co-Champions/The Future of this Blog

Congratulations to Vanya Shivashankar and Gokul Venkatachalam! They are Back-to-Back Co-Champions.

Winning Words
Vanya: scherenschnitte 
Gokul: nunatak

Last year, Ansun Sujoe and Sriram Hathwar, won the National Spelling Bee (feuilleton/stichomythia).

It was also exciting to hear words that have been used before, such as urgrund (2007) and sprachgefühl  (2006 - Round 1 Test).

Also, Kavya Shivashankar (2009 Champion: Laodicean), is the sister of Vanya - the first siblings to win the National Spelling Bee.

Congratulations to all spellers this year! 

Spell with Your Dream!
Spell with Your Heart!
Spell with Your Love!

The Future of this Blog

Back in 2011, I began this blog to give tips and advice, links to resources and uses, and updates for the Bee. Now, I am about to graduate from high school and begin college this fall. Each year, I realize I post less and less. My major next year will require a lot of hours from me, along with several generals I still have to complete.

I do not know if I will let anyone take over this blog quite yet. I will keep this blog up, just in case anyone finds it useful to them (even if I don't deem this as a main source of information/advice).

For now, I wish you spellers all the best. Good luck with future endeavors and dreams.

    Sincerely,
           Anne
