12-year-old wins statewide - Mila Fisher

Ananya Vinay, from central California has just won her third year of spelling bee competitions with the word "Dipsomaniac", meaning a person who has uncontrollable cravings for alcoholic liquors. According to the 12-year-old, she's not as nervous onstage as she used to be. She won this victory at Stckton on Saturday, and she says that she's already looking forward to the National spelling bee near Washington D.C. later this year.

I think this is really cool, she's only twelve and she's going for her goals and accomplishing them.

P.S. Ms. Countryman, I know my posts aren't really big news, but I want to write about happy stuff, and good news, not all the death and terrible politics that are going on. I intentionally search for the feel-good news that report cool things, instead of depressing tragedies.

  1. Wow. That's amazing. I think it's really inspiring that she's only twelve and has already participated and even won enough spelling bees to participate in the National bee.
