Confessions of a Mormon Otaku

This past Sunday I signed up for a women's basketball team in my stake. I found out last night that the first game is today at 7PM. I thought this would be a great way to get in shape and do something with all the free time on my hands. I still think that, but now I'm feeling a bit in over my head. My brother is going to give me some playing tips when he gets home from school, but I still have never played basketball in my life. I've watched a lot of basketball(and when you're parents are University of Kentucky alumni, that's mandatory), but I am still feeling very inexperienced.

I'm not expecting our team to be spectacular, though. It's not like all us single girls are champion b-ball players. It's the other teams I'm worried about. What am I saying? They're probably just as inexperienced as we are. Besides, church basketball isn't about winning. It's about... well, I don't know exactly, but I'm sure unity is one of the goals.

So wish me luck! I'm going to need it if I want to survive tonight.
