People just won't give you a basketball even when you say please

So church was good, we learned about the sabbath and about influencing people and not being influenced. It was fun. Then afterwards everyone has 15-30 minutes to hangout. So when I was in sixth grade we used to play basketball all the time then we (me and my friends) just stopped playing for some reason. I decided that tonight I would play basketball.

Do you know how hard it is???


There must have been 25 people around that hoop and there were only 3 balls. Our church hosts upwards.. they have 50+ balls and someone only took out three? Ok fine so we just grab a ball when someone looses it. These guys are tall and and very... aggressive. I think I almost got run over twice! So finally my friends Rachel gets bored of watching me fail and she goes up to a kid and asks for a ball. Here's how the conversation went:


"can i have a ball."
"no"
"i need it"
"no"
"Stephanie needs it"
"no"
"shes going to die"
"no"
"please"
"no"
etc.


It was very amusing. Then that same person decided to taunt me because that was amusing and then they lost the ball and I got it... hahahahahahaha.


After I finally got the ball I realised why we stopped playing- I stink. So I dropped it on the floor and watched people tackle each other for it.



Then Will was playing frisbee and i don't know why but every time he's playing frisbee and I'm around he'll smack me on the head. So in the general spirit of *self defense* We spent the rest of the time trying to get the frisbee and smack Will on the head with it. We didn't succeed but it was entertaining....

all in all it was a fun night.

I could read it without thinking much at all.. I think it comes from years of deciphering chatspeak. xD
