But, anyway, I was at the basketball game last night, because I have been promoted to Select Singers (elite singing group at my school), because they needed more altos, so I'm singing alto. I usually sing soprano, but I enjoy singing alto in church...so...not too different. Oh and the reason why four Select Singers (counting myself), were there, was because we were singing the national anthem. We sang accapella and I have heard lovely compliments about us.
So, about the game, I sat on the enemy bleacher side, because Dakota (I may have mentioned a Dakota previously, but not this Dakota. This Dakota is a girl, and...not the other Dakota....) was filming it for the live stream and the only other person she had up there with her was the vice principal, who was acting as the announcer. And he really does have a very good announcer voice! I was impressed.
I feel like we annoyed a few people, because we were cheering with the student section from the other side of the gym, but hey, we gotta show our school spirit! And hey, I've decided to share some things I learned during my first basketball game!
- People get way too involved...like...they think that everyone is the rep sometimes!
- Things that look like they should be legal...aren't....
- And things that look like they shouldn't be allowed...are?!
- There is a lot more falling down than I anticipated.
- It seems to be more of a contact sport than it's made out to be.
- Those umpires have got to be in fantastic shape, because they're running all over the court, keeping up with the action and the players and they NEVER SEEM TO GET WINDED.
- It has got to take a lot of dedication to be a coach....
- Each player only gets five fouls.
- It is hard for me to tell what a foul is....
So yeah...basketball....
