The gym system in our school is the stupidest thing I have ever seen.

Basically, if you miss a gym class, no matter what reason, you have to make it up in a free period to earn credit (presumably to prevent cutting class). However, because I am taking Photography next semester and also have my study hall then, I have no free period because of the many required classes I have to take as a sophomore. All of them are in this semester.

I missed four gym classes for the four days I was out when I got swine flu. Because of that, I have an F for that period of time. As a result, I have a C in Gym. So basically, I'm going to miss honor roll this quarter because I got swine flu.

Ridiculous.

Which is why you get a medical certificate proving that you were unable to make the class on those days.
 
Argh!

I got duped into watching a youtube video of a girl smoking pot, thinking it was sex-related. Now i'm gonna get "recommended" videos of people smoking pot clogging up my "recommended for you" section. :aargh:
 
Asked them that in the subject of not having a free period. They said I had to make it up regardless.

Do it on your own time and then send the teacher/school a bill.

EDIT -- None of my friends want to go to the April 14th Muse concert. I dont wanna go alone!
 
You cant take a little 10 minute romp in the snow with only a shirt on? Hah!
 
Rant: Our gym teacher is taking us to go ice bathing - basically you dig a hole in the ice and jump in.

That may be a bit extreme for someone not conditioned to it, even life-threatening.

:p I'm sure he knows what he's doing. It's not that uncommon, actually, I know a guy who did it with his class and he's not some super-athlete or whatever. He survived it.
 
Well I know, Ive done it. Your teacher better know what to do if anything goes wrong though, because things can go from bad to dead very fast.

He's a Swedish Physical Education (Idrott & Hälsa = Gym & Health, which means he's specialized in how to live a healthy life) teacher. He also studied Biology at S.U.

I think he's perfectly fit to lead something like this...
