My middle school achievements were mainly dominated by my Spelling Bee, PSIA, and my MathCounts competitions. In PSIA, I eventually acquired success by being the State Champion in Spelling. MathCounts, I was very close, but I became a State Qualifier at the end. And alas, the spelling bee was something I have been doing since the 4th grade. Although I eventually did not be the national champion, I will still treasure the experiences I had, and I will always acknowledge the wealth of information I amassed during these 4 years, from 4th grade to 8th grade, doing the spelling bee. After the 8th grade, I was no longer eligible for the spelling bee, due to the age limit. However, I am planning to still take a part in spelling by helping others participate, and coaching/tutoring those who are interested.
