I Have Fans!!

Today was the Geo Bee. Yeah. I came in third, not bad. It happened like this, when I walked in, the whole school was there ( in the auditorium).My best friend Delilah got alot of people to make signs for me. Right in the beginning when we were still waiting for people to come, they were holding up the signs. Of course, the teachers took them away but Delilah managed to get some back and the others people put in their pockets. There were two people from each team sitting on the stage all in all 12 people (including me). They passed around the mic for different questions. I was third like I said before. These are the signs below (excpet for Delilah and Me).










This is my personal favorite because of the little monster guy!!!





My certificate.



The prize that I picked out at the end. I can answer any questions if you like!

Congratulations Gwyneth! I love all of the signs, and the fact that you kept them. When you said that you can any questions if we like did you mean geography questions or questions about you post? Here is one of each: What was the most interesting question you had to answer?
Name two American cities that share a name with cities in the former Soviet Union.

Way to go! I hope this opens a love for geography that you can share with your wonderful Aunt Erin. I wish I could've been there. I want to know about the questions you had to answer too!

What was your hardest question? What was your easiest?

Good friends are one of the biggest blessings in life! Right after a loving family, which I know you have. Congratulations. I would bet money that you would have beat me had I been on that stage with you ;)

Was that riddle question Florida or California? I was thinking of Moscow, Idaho, and Odessa, Texas. There may be more. Check out the Geo Quiz on PRI's The World: http://theworld.org/taxonomy_by_date/3/20090116
