well, today was okay until i broke myself. this morning i got up around 5:30, got ready, then met my some of my youth group at the church. it was all guys except for nicole best, kim and i but it was cool. all of us drove up to Grove City together in our huge church van. nicole and i listened to music and fell asleep :-) yay us!! we got there around 9:30 and had to get ready right away because we played our first game at 10:00. i did pretty good in the first game. it was really fun. it kind of made me miss playing basketball. KIND OF. but anyways, we won our first game. then we walked around some until we had to play our second game at 12:00. that was when i got hurt. i was playing defense on the guy and her acted like he was going to shoot it so i jumped up to try and block him but while i was in the air he dribbled around me, and while i was still in the air i guess i tried to follow him somehow and i landed wrong. i went one way and my knee went the other. i felt it pop out of place and i kind of fell on my butt on the ground because i couldn't stand up, and that's when i felt it pop back into place. it hurt soooo bad. i started crying and i couldn't move it. the first thing that popped into my head while i was sitting there on the ground..the very FIRST thing was "god, why isn't lauren here? i wish she were here. i want her here soo bad right now." and everything happened so fast after that. it was all kind of a blur. but when they carried me to the side line i also remembered that earlier, while i was cheering for my team from the bench, i kept picturing how much better it would have been if lauren were there..if she was there watching me and cheering for me. no one knew how much i wanted her there at that very moment. and when i realized i COULDN'T have her there with me i started crying more. i had to sit there on the side line for the rest of that game and then my team ended up winning so they played a whole other game. it sucked so much. all i wanted to do was go home, but i couldn't. they ended up losing the third game. thank god. but even then, we didn't leave for another half an hour or so. i was so mad. and my knee hurt so bad. we finally left and we ended up stopping at taco bell on the way home. it was okay i guess. hmmm..when we got back to the church, around 5:00, i had my dad come get me. i was kind of upset because i had planned on staying at the church when we got back because new covenent (a christian band from mount vernon) was going to be there and our youth group was going to fix them dinner, hang out some, then watch a movie. but there was no way i was staying because i was hurting so bad. anyways, my dad took me home, then him and my mom left to go out to eat and they had pam and todd come sit with me until they got home..i did not appreciate that either, because i can take care of myself..oh well. after my parents got home my mom took me to selby after hours and i got an x-ray, crutches and a brace then came home and went to bed. i wish i didn't break myself :-(
