My fhe group is playing beach "volleyball" in the cultural hall. In Tonga everyone is REALLY good at volleyball or maybe it's just compared to me. I remember being in JR high school and being really scared to walk through the gym because that's where the ball could slam into you. They were really into slamming the ball too.

That never changed when I returned to Hawaii. It was worse when they formed a Tongan ward and we began attending. Our young women were sooo good. My volleyball serve was crappy and I was happy if it just went over the net. Forget about setting or slamming.

My Tongan Young Adult ward was the same. Everyone is REALLY good and I suck so I just never played. Perhaps if I started playing when I was younger I would've enjoyed it. I played sometimes with the neighborhood people and I remember getting bruises just from bumping the ball. NO THANK-YOU!!! I'll stick to dancing!!!

I'm going to go to FHE. I'm caught between wanting to support my FHE mom Susie who is very cool and NOT wanting to see that guy who is in my group and on my last nerve right now. I know I'm supposed to go and I'm in this group for whatever reason so I should lose the attitude. I'll just put some flat shoes on first.
