Of course, this is why I am on here as well.

That's awesome! Okay you are a LITTLE older than I am!And you are not quite old enough to call me a child "master"! Your name is Sarah isn't it? (Please don't play the name game with me like the masked bandit did!)I'm more than five years older than you, youngling. If I wanted to play mysterious name games, I wouldn't have my real name on my introductory thread. Sarah I am, and Sarah I shall remain.Just read it and love it! I picture myself as a stay at home mom or in charge of an orphanage in South America or somewhere! (God willing, of course) I have a big heart for children and will never want my home to be empty!Oh! You meant what do I picture myself _doing_ in 15 years? That's a different question entirely. I do hope to be married, certainly, and in that case what I do will depend on my husband. I don't personally feel called to the foreign mission field at this time, but hope I would be willing to serve wherever God places me.
Well, I would beg to differ on the adjective, but at least we are partially agreed, my DLF.

We could conquer the world… that might help us overcome boredom.
Keirstin
Yep! Me too! (Although I need to go to sleep soon!)does any one get on early? That's usually when I'm on although not too many people answer!
Everett C.
Hi guys! I'm bored, so what else is there to do except go on Memverse?There's always sleeping. Which is what I'm planning on doing next.
Well that's boring…
Keirstin

Boredom?

But more beneficial to your health than staring at an electronic screen.

The state of feeling bored.
Keirstin

True.
Margaret Eddy
Any of you read Do Hard Things?
No. On principle.
Keirstin
No ones answering? Well that explains your spirit of bordness!
Jedidiah Diligence Breckinridge III
Any of you read Do Hard Things?
Hard things? Like sleeping?
To answer the question, I don't remember if I have or not. I've heard the authors speak before though. At the Bible Bee, in fact.
Everett C.
I want to read it. Have you?
Keirstin
Okay! Did not know that! But it the book I would most highly recommend for any person who wants to go above average! You guys need to read it! Look on page 65 of this forum to see why!
Margaret Eddy

ALERT! ALERT! SPELLING ERROR!
Fine! I am not bored! Just please, please, do not misspell it. It is not the fault of the word that it is boring.
Margaret Eddy

What if we already went above average?
Everett C.
Okay! I'll check it out. How's Bible Bee studying?
Jedidiah Diligence Breckinridge III
Well, I'm really heading to bed now, so I'll talk you all you younglings (except Margaret, who is at least an apprentice) tomorrow. Or the next day, or the next day…
Margaret Eddy
I must go to bed as well. Farewell, and beware of boredom, beware of olaf, beware of inspirational books that everyone has heard of!
Keirstin
Okay, i understand!
I really enjoyed this book! But I think you would enjoy it as well! If not, God uses each of us with all of our talents in a special way! (Misspelled it to get your attention!) hehe
Keirstin
Good!(are you still there?)
Everett C.
Yeah :) Do you like the Study Guide?
Keirstin
I think so! I am a week behind because I started late, but am studying hard! First year doing bob! You.
Keirstin
This auto correct is so annoying! I meant bible bee!
Everett C.
Cool! I'm on track so far. It's actually quite a lot of material compared to last year. This is my sixth year doing BB :)
Keirstin
Wow! Have you ever made it too nationals? I'm guessing your a senior?
Everett C.
This is actually my last year as a Junior. I've been to Nationals the past four years, and semi-finals too. Do you hope to make Nationals?
Keirstin
I do but that hope Is not that strong! I am a senior! How old are you?
Everett C.
You can do it! My first year I started their Study Guide three weeks before the test day and ended up scoring really high, so you definitely have a shot! I'm 14. How old are you?
Keirstin
Nearly 15, and just barely qualify as a senior! Birthday in October.
Everett C.
Oh cool! Where do you live?
Keirstin
Idaho! And you?
Everett C.
Southern California. About an hour from the big city of Los Angeles :)
Keirstin
Nice! What is nationals like?
Everett C.
It is ssssssssoooooo fun!!! If you go I promise you will love it :D First there's the preliminary rounds. You take a written test and also say your memory passages in front of judges. The top 15 contestants in each division then move on to the semi-finals. These are super nerve racking… miss one word and you're out. The top 5 advance to the Final Challenge Round which is a mix of recitations and knowledge questions. In terms of the environment, everyone is really friendly and you'll make a lot of friends!
Keirstin
Wow! Sounds like a lot of fun! Makes me want to study harder just thinking about it! Is their families conferences? I also heard there was dancing. Did you ever do it? Just curious
Keirstin
Also do you have any tips on helping me?
Everett C.
Yeah sure :) There's usually a bunch of guest speakers and stuff. Not sure what they have planned for this year! Also, if you want, check out photshop.biblebee.org for some pictures. Here's a picture of myself (I'm the guy fourth from the left): http://photoshop.biblebee.org/p/junior_semi_finals2/juniorsemi-71_29_6_2
Keirstin
I should probably go to bed now talk! Thanks for chatting with me! Chat with ya tomorrow ! See ya at nationals!(hopefully!)
Everett C.
I've never done the square dancing before, partly because I didn't want to and also because I was sometimes busy studying for Finals. In terms of tips, well, I have a lot :P I'll give you some in a sec.
Everett C.
K, cya! I'll post the tips over in the Bible Bee Chat Room.
Keirstin
Ok! Saw a couple people I recognized on the link! Thanks! Good night! Don't let the bed bugs bite! Jk
Everett C.
Nice! Good night!
