I found out today, that China has a Spelling Bee! This was a pretty amazing discovery, since not two weeks ago I had decided that China was one of the few countries that absolutely could not have a Spelling Bee. Fact. I mean, how do you spell a character?! This is about the point you can color me....pink (I've decided that the color pink shall represent being stoooopid, as I don't like the color pink, and I wouldn't want to demote any other colors' status with the relation...sorry April). I've found out not six hours ago, that China CAN and DOES have a spelling bee! Fancy that. Apparently, you can "spell" each part of a character. I'm in the process of looking for a technical definition... or Proof that is not also written in Chinese...but so far no luck. :(
For now, you can marvel at the idea of a Chinese Spelling Bee :)

WHAT! Just because YOU don't like pink, it has to represent stupidity? Out of the entire spectrum of colors, pink is the one that most symbolizes stupidity? Why not say "color me puce?" No one's favorite color is puce.
I love it when people comment on my blogs, so I thought I'd comment on yours just in case it makes you feel special too... because you definitely are. So Chinese spelling be huh? That's pretty awesome. Well, now that I'm living in England I'm having to relearn how to spell things like colour, enquiry, saviour, shoppe, programme... ya, I'm learning English all over again. I hope you're having an incredible week Janai! Stop by sometime :)
