This weekend I am in a tournament in Indianapolis where all the money goes to the Riley Children's Hospital. It started on Thursday with mixed doubles. I played with my brother. It was the first tourney we played together in, and we did surprisingly good. Yes good not well. Well implies that we lost but played well. We won our first match easily and our second match in a third set super tiebreaker (sounds more important than it is). After everyone was done, we ate at a Italian place near the hotel. My food was cold and the waiter hated us because we walked in 20 minutes until close.
On Friday, I played one match at 10 in the morning and didn't play again until 6:30 that night. The first one was a singles match and I won easy. I watched some of my friends play until it was around 4 o'clock then I took a 2 hour nap out in the sun. The late match was regular doubles and we won easy. The funny thing was we were playing the team that got 3rd at Indiana High School State and Hannah and I only got 9-12 at our state.
Today I woke up to the sound of rain, which is about the worst possible sound at a tennis event. My brother was scheduled to play at 8 and didn't get on court until noon because it had to be moved inside. My match was only two hours behind because we played at a different indoor site. I did good. I won 6-1, 6-4. It was funny because during the first set (when I was dominating) I had the song "Pocket Full of Sunshine", and in the second set I had some sad song, I can't even remember. My next match I had to play my sister. I have had to play at every tourney we've both been at. I lost, but who tries after someone beats you a million times. Then we were going to play doubles, and right before they put us on the court it starts to rain. They cancelled all the matches for tonight and moved them for tomorrow.
Tomorrow I am scheduled to play 6 matches(1 singles, 3 doubles and 2 mixed). Pray that it doesn't rain. If it rains they will either move it inside and I will be here until midnight or they will cancel the doubles which is even worse.

PLEEEAAAASE use formal English, or at least use WORD to write it. It's driving me crazy. Otherwise, I like knowing what's going on.
Sorry, well not really. I had like ten minutes to write it, and didn't really have time to check grammer. I explained why I used good instead of well. There is a difference. I know that's not the only mistake though.
Very clever. No matter that, I still diagree with "good" over "well."
