Bad and good. :) Bad because I can't do any better, and good because I can relax! ;)

DITTO! :D

Haha, Bethany!!!!! Fortunately, I wasn't too nervous, and I survived everything without anything except butterflies in my stomach!!!

Two days until we find out our scores!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

Priscilla!! How did it go???? Believe it or not, I met a girl at our locals whose name was Priscilla - and she had a sister named Rachel!

That's cool!! I think my orals went well, but like most everyone else, I didn't feel like my written went very good. I got first, Nicole got second, and Rachel got third!

That's so great!!!! The written tests seemed a lot harder than last year. Maybe it's because I was a junior last year, though.

No they were a lot harder.

Well, I think almost all of us seniors had trouble with the written. It's amazing how we can study the book of the Bible all summer, and still feel totally unprepared for the test. It was so hard!

I hardly knew any of the Greek words they quizzed us on! And some of them were worded kind of weird. It will be interesting to see my written score, though, and see if I did any better than I THINK I did. :)

I know what you mean, I thought I knew all of the greek words from the SS so well, but then they asked several ones that I had never studied:( And Yes, I thought some of the wording was odd too.

Please don't scream, Matthew. You'll hurt my ears.

Thanks :)

Haha! Okay, I won't. I was just kidding anyway - I never scream. Probably never have since I was like 10. :P
Even yesterday, we were at a homeschool event at a skating rink, and we were playing Red Light, Green Light. For some reason they asked us to scream when the lights went out - I didn't.

Thanks, my ears have been seriously hurt this morning when Carissa screamed so loudly when she walked into a spiders-web on our front porch, and I don't think they would hold up to another screaming session :)

Wow. You haven't screamed for 6 years? That's pretty good…I think the last time I did was Friday evening :)

I'm 15, in case you've forgotten. :) Yeah, as you know, I'm not exactly the hyper type.

And now it's 21 hours and 35 minutes!!!!

Oops! That's right :) I knew that, I just wasn't thinking, because I knew you were in your second year of being a senior in the Bible Bee :)

Yeah, I know that. And I am, but so far you haven't seen me that way yet – and I hope to keep it that way :)

lol - I was screaming excitedly on the inside :D

10 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! refrains from screaming

@Matthew: WOW! You haven't screamed in give years?!?!?!?!?!? I'm fifteen too and I screamed just yesterday…

Eight and a half hours now!

8 hours, 24 minutes & 29 seconds!

Hm, I think our different clocks could argue on those last two xD

I am EST. What are you?

EST, but I mean our clocks aren't exactly synchronized down to the second xD

lol. Speaking of synchronization down to the second, I am planning on putting countdown until Bible Bee next year on my website

xD

Too long to wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too true!

According the countdown on my website
zachweb.yzi.me/bbcountdown
They will be announced in 5 hours, 16 minutes and 22 seconds

My dad works from 3pm to midnight, and of course he wants to be here when we find out our scores, so we won't even find out until tomorrow morning! :(

I'm with Jess. Too long even for parents.
