Yessss!!!!!

Yesssss!!!!!(as Napoleon Dynamite would say). Yesterday we had a basketball game for church. I went for the game ready to play. I felt good about today as I warmed up. To tell you the truth I was draining three's (not that I would try to make one in the actual game!). We started the game (me on the bench) and they were off. The game wasn't going good for us, we were down by at least 5 points. Finally I was put in. Although, I did nothing for the team. All I did was run up and down the court. The half-time buzzer blew and I was out.

With 3 minutes to go, all the older boy's were taken out and all 12-14 year old's were on the court. This was a surprise because all of these players were about 5 foot to 5 foot 3 inches. With the exception of me who is 5 foot 9. We went up and down the court not doing so well when the ball was passed to me. I faked the shot and dribbled around for the shot. Suspense, would it go in? Yes!!!!!!! It was a swish!!!!!!!!! The crowd went wild (not really). The team did tho; this was my first basket of the season. This is an accomplishment me because I am really not good at basketball. Although, I do enjoy playing.

Even though I had a triumph, it wasn't a triumph for the whole team. In the end we lost. However, the game didn't matter at all. It turned out, the other team was a forfeit. Apparently the other team had a player who played for Royal High School. The rules clearly state that no players for church ball can play on a school team. Next week we have the championship.

The rest of my day was pretty dull. Except, my sister Miriam took me for a slurpee (which was very generous of her). After my treat, I did HW and washed cars. Washing cars wasn't to bad considering I got payed. Once I finished all that the rest of the day wasn't bad. Miriam and I watched School of Rock and had Panda Express. And to kick it off, we watched the Karate Kid. I have to say this weekend was pretty sweet!
