Default Something wrong with my car...

I have a 91 hatch...Stock..

So today in the morning it started up fine I went to shcool....
at lunch i moved it and it started up fine
then 2 minutes later I try to start it up again to go with some friends
but the damn thing wouldnt start...the motor turned over and everything
I tried to start it like 50 times and it wouldnt start
So then around 9 I went back to try to see if it would start and it DID!!!

WTF was going on with the car?...I have no idea..wire loose or someting?

Also Im thinking about getting an Integra..an EK Hatch...so people throw some offers at me..
Preferable stock...I wanna have fun fixin it up..

check tormrmow on how the car runs..if it hesitates at all, back fires, or shuts off while at idle.....etc etc...and then post the problems back here again. When has the car gotten a tune up?
