Buzzz...

-Cymotrichous

--Can I get a definition please?

–adjective
having wavy hair.

-- C-Y-M-O-T-R-I-C-H-O-U-S

That was the winning word for this year's National spelling bee.

It seems like every year the national spelling bee comes around I see an Asian, particularly an Indian person take the title. I'm from the Indian decent and like seeing us win the title. Are we naturally good spellers or do our parents have an obsession with making us into champion word smiths? I know growing up my parents wanted me to do well in our school spelling bee. WEIRD!

I was just reminiscing (had to look up the spelling by the way, tsk tsk) on my past to see some poor kid having to learn a bunch of useless words growing up. AHHHHHHHH!
