Should I .... go to basketball team or read novels

This is a difficult question to me, because both of them are hard to give up. But when I think that our basketball team does not teach other skills, the question become easier. I would choose novels definitely because I can only practice basic skills in basketball team. What else can I think of to get rid of basketball team? Oh yea~ I realized that I need more time to do homework because I don't want to fail in English class. I thought last time I was lucky so I did not fail. But this time... I am not sure. However, I conclude that I should spend more time on reading novels. I can improve my Chinese by reading it and I can be more creativity. I mean... even myself doubted my creativity because I could not think of any cool pictures. I think of Terry the Platypus when I go on my wikispace...
