In order to do well at the Spelling Bee on Aug 11 - I want that $5,000! - I have to study a couple of hours every day.<P>
I'm not worried about the polysyllabic words that they'll be asking during the written test - those I can handle. But its those unfamiliar words that they'll be using during the oral portion - those have got me worried. Anything over 10 letters, if you're trying to visualize it and spell it in your mind phonetically...what happens if you lose your place? Since you can't write it down to make sure it "looks right" - tragedy may ensue!<P>
My plan is to work for an hour first thing when I get up, and another hour before I go to bed - at a minimum!
