Only once in my whole life, have I ever done a contest of some sort for school before, and it was a nightmare.
For the Heritage Fair that our class did in grade six, we had to research and make a poster board on a famous Canadian. During that time we worked on it, there was so much pressure. There wasn't a day we that we could relax and enjoy. It was always writing paragraphs after paragraphs, or endless research on the computer and flipping through books. The reason I'm bringing this up, is because now our English teacher and science teacher introduced us to a writing contest, and a science fair! It's putting so much pressure on me just thinking about it.
The way I look at it, there's no way I'm qualifying for the next level (provincials or city championships) because I am in a classroom of people the same level as me and/or higher. There's no doubt that there will be way more competition in these events then there was back in elementary school. I just hope I won't be the worst!
