make a list of 100 things that make me happy.

• h, who is 6’7”, guarded me at first. he said, “don’t shoot. you know you’ll get denied.” two seconds later, i scored a three point shot. : ) j yelled at him.
• i scored twice on j by cutting quickly through the key. h yelled at him, “who has caitlin ?!” haha. j said, “you’re lucky you caught me when i was winded.”
• i scored a shot in the outside corner on j. he said, “what the…since when do you…” it made me so happy. : ) i recently started playing guard (for the first time ever !) instead of forward, and he didn’t know this, so he wasn’t expecting me to be able to shoot outside.
