Rather early in my Minecraft... (would) lifetime... (be the word for it?) I was just hacking away at a tree with my stone axe. Then I suddenly got blown up by a creeper. This was around the second day (IRL) that I had played Minecraft, so I didn't exactly know how everything worked. After returning to my point of death to get my (very little) stuff back, I noticed that the creeper had blown a hole through to a cave. I went back to my house, got some ladders, torches and my only iron pick. (I was lucky enough to find a cave at the beginning of the game with some iron in it.)
I explored deeper and deeper until I found some redstone, at the time I didn't know what it was, so I just mined it and continued on my merry way. What I didn't realize was that behind the redstone was an entrance to another cave, after fully exploring what I had found of the cave, I started to head back, found the hole, explored some more until I found some diamonds!
i saw it at yelled at the top of my lungs "YES!!!! WOOOOOT!!! YA YA!!! *walks out side* HEY MOM I FOUND DIMEND!!! :D!!!"
then i mine it with a stone pick....rookie fail.

Pretty strange really, but completely true.
But when playing with my ladyfriend, she found a vein of 4 diamonds.
I was so happy for her, until she MADE BOOTS OUT OF THEM.
Ughhhhh

Punched diamond.
Fell in lava.
