March Madness!

I found out today that Yuki enjoys playing basketball.

Earlier this week, I noticed a basketball by the front door. I had intended to ask whose it was, although I figured it belonged to Yosuke because he's into sports, but it slipped my mind. Then today when I was tutoring Yuki, the subject of basketball came up and she told me it was her ball. I asked her if she was interested in joining a team, and she said she wanted to try out next fall when she's in high school. I hope she's good enough to be on the team because I would really like her to play. Playing a sport on a team or club is a great way to learn a foreign language, or so I'm told. It has to do with focusing on the sport rather than the language, so that you lose your inhibitions and nervousness when speaking.
