Countdowns

It was 1 month ago exactly that we were headed to the National Bible Bee! Still can't get over how much fun I had there - miss seeing all my friends though :(

Let's all just make it to Nationals again, and I'll be happy :) Okay?

"Let's just all make it to Nationals again, and I'll be happy."

Planning on it! :D

Me too! :)

Me three!

Sounds good to me. :D

I don't know what I would do if we didn't make it, or you all didn't! I might just be about heart broken :( :)

I REALLY want to make it to nationals again! It will be harder for me now that I am a senior…

You want some advice? :P

YYEESS!!!

Okay. Just give me a moment, and I'll try to think of some advice… :)

Okay.

Reason being, I've been to Nationals as a Junior before… you haven't :)

@Bethany: It's because Matthew has been a senior AND a junior while you have only been a senior…though that is not wrong :D

UHH…thanks for the tips. Do I get stressed out?

The point being, I have qualified for Nationals as a Junior and a Senior, so I know first-hand what can be different between those two age groups.

Of course. I ask Courtney's advice a lot.

Now that I think about it, why not just make a new topic for advice? This topic is not really the right place for it (I know, I started it.) :)

Okay…I'll start a new topic than you can tell me all the advice on there :D

EDIT: Okay…I made it. Now what advice do you have :D

@Bethany and Matthew: I thought you were giving me advice on the new topic…are you still on?

Sorry… stops pushing the refresh button

This is a very confusing conversation… :P Especially because some of the comments are deleted, right? :D

Ummmm…yes…some are… :D

EDIT: Now this topic looks really confusing because Bethany deleted all her comments… You just had to be there to understand this conversation :D

I made a countdown for the date of Contestant Registration! :)

100 days till the materials are released!! :D

Hahahaha!! June 1st, right??? :)

@Sarah Eddy: I think my sister knows you… Shiloh Strang?? :P I don't know, but she was mentioning a "Sarah Eddy" around the Bible Bee nats time.

It is possible…as far as I know I'm the only Sarah Eddy that has gone to nationals. :) I'm not very good at remembering names though.

Hey Eden, Sarah will be at the Homeschool Conference too. :)

Sarah Eddy?? :) Great! i'd love to meet her!

So.. you changed your profile name?? ;) I thought you were someone different… lol! :) Look forward to meeting you!! :):)

You mean you didn't like that gorgeous smily face picture of yourself?! ;) j/k

We were talking about that today, we're going to register the opening day!

We've done that every year since 2010! Everybody's looking forward to it!

1 month!!!

wow, that is SO close. :D We'll probably sign up the first day too. :)

Actually, it's kinda scary that the time went so fast… it feels like nationals was yesterday!

I know!!!!! Exactly!!!!!!

Hey Matthew! Now it's less than a month :P SO EXCITED!!! Anybody else? :)

You bet I am!

}^D

I thought I already made it clear that I'm excited! J/K I can't wait!

wish I could grab time and fast-forward to June 1!

I posted this on the Prayer topic, but I'll say it here - our closest local contest is like 5 hours away! Please pray for one to come closer!!!

I'm not sure….but I hope so! Even Nationals is closer than that contest!

Me too!

@All: don't forget that this Sunday you all Spring forward an hour.

What??? Are you from AZ or something?

@Madi: You mean you didn't like that gorgeous smily face picture of yourself?! ;) j/k

Sorry Eden, I usually don't come on here. lol…No, it didn't represent my face very well. :P Not that you can see my face in this one but at least there's a Steinway in the pic. :P
