20 Aug 06 After watching a show named "Akeelah and the Bee", I would like to express my views about it. Akeelah was a student with endless potential in spelling. She will exel fabulously if given good coaching. I think that we should discover our potential and exel in it as everyone will have something they are good at, Even so , Akeelah carried a different attitude and chose not to be serious with her schoolwork as she was afraid that others that others might laugh at her for being "brainy". I think that we should not care about how others think if we are right. If we discover our potential, we should do our best to exel in it. After many events, Akeelah straightened her thoughts and made it to the National Spelling Bee Finals. During the preparations for the finals, Akeelah received help from her friends and family and through their help , Akeelah did a stressless but meaningful preparation. She won in the end. Teamwork is very precious and can work magic. Stress should not be overloaded or things will not work out. Unlike Akeelah, Dylan, who shared the champion with her, had a stressful preparation. To me, Akeelah's method works out best. During the finals, they had sportsmanship and so, both achieved success. We should exercise sportsmanship and be a generous person. I learned a lot from this inspiration show.
