gym class sucks

hello...

these are a couple paragraphs from the book The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl:
"I'm in gym class, or, as the idiots who teach it insist in calling it 'physical education'. 'Education', as if they're teaching us something us something other than the utterly useless skills of volleyball, flag football, and pushups.
And my personal favorite (I'm being sarcastic), dodge ball. What genius invented this game? What unrelentingly stupid jackass decided that it was a good idea to take a cluster of people with widely varying body types, strength levels, and skill sets (to say nothing of ever-shifting mortalities and ethics), and then encourage them to hit each other with a ball?"

this is just another gym class sentence:
"On the gym floor, everyone's busy being physically educated by firing rubber balls around, what fun."


isn't all of that so true?!?!?!

i HATE, absolutely HATE gym class. i don't see how anyone can enjoy it....

please tell me that you agree...??...

I always hated Phys. Ed. - being forced into crappy team "sports" with people that hated me...fun, fun. As far as sweating goes, well, you're right - it is nasty, but what can we do? I'd have to say playing basketball on a high school team was one of the grossest experiences ever...you couldn't help but get doused with some big smelly kid's waterfalls o' sweat...el barfo!!

hahaha...yeah, i really, really suck at pretty much ALL sports, and so many other people are SO good, and very competitive, am since i'm....not....they all hate me...i try to just pretend to play, or just stand around, but then the gym teachers get mad!! I DO NOT WANT TO PARTICIPATE!! no one else wants me to participate either (i'm not good at winning)!!

next week in gym, everyone is going to do this big dodge ball tournament..ALL WEEK LONG. but..you get to choose...you can either do the dodge ball crap, or work out in the weight room!! of course...i'm going to the weight room...it kinda sucks..but it's WAY better then dodge ball. ANYTHING is better than dodge ball. it's kinda funny, because there's only like, 10 people (including me) that aren't playing dodge ball. this is 10 out of..about 120 people..i feel like such a wuss sometimes..but then i feel proud to hate it! :D
