P.E.

P.E. stinks. I'm not fit, I get that! I understand I have to get more fit but this is just plain cruel how they do it. I feel like they try to make me miserable!


I'm taking my fitness assesment at this time and it is just too frustrating. We have to everything in a group -- like push-ups and sit-ups -- and your group knows your score. If you get a bad score they know it and it's embarrassing. What stinks the most about that is that I'm in a group with people I'm not really good friends with because all of good friends are in another P.E. class! It's sort of the same with the sit and reach because there are some kids around me I don't know very well who hear it and one of them is this jerk from the locker room.


The other part about P.E. are the other kids. A lot of the kids are just plain jerks, for example, making fun of people. Now, I try to stay out of other people's business, so I'm not usually made fun of but when I hear other people made fun of I just get frustrated. The kids who aren't jerks make me feel kind of bad sometimes when they're all talking about their scores. If I get a bad score then I don't want to hear about everyone else's good score.


And finally, the P.E. teachers. They tell us that we're doing a horrible job and that we can do better than that! Well, what if we can't? What if it's just them? We try our hardest and try to do better. Why make us feel even more bad about it?


I understand there are some kids that like or are good at P.E. but this is how I feel.
