I remember being in a spelling bee in 6th grade. My Mom was very proud of me. I had made it through several rounds, but I sure was nervous. It soon became my turn again, and I misspelled the word "thrifty". It seems I got ahead of myself and put the i before r. Well, that ended that! I was great at spelling but the pressure at spelling bees was a bit frightening for me. Funny thing is that I don't mind playing the piano in front of lots of people. I'm quite comfortable sitting behind a keyboard... but that's another story!
