A 13-year-old girl from Kansas won the Scripps National Spelling Bee 2009. Kavya Shivashankar outspelled 11 other finalists. The word "Laodicean" which means "lukewarm or indifferent in religion or politics" gave her the win. Okay, to be honest with you guys, this is the first time for me to encounter this word. How about you?
Kavya won $40,000 and a big trophy. Another thing: she looked so cool all the way during the competition :)
