summer school p.e., day one.

only 11 more 6-hour torture days to go.

what does one day of summer school p.e. look like?
allow me to tell you.

5:50 - Wake up and get ready
7:30 - Arrive at Mission High School
7:45 - Sit for an hour while the teachers figure out what they're doing
9:30 - Begin Walk and Talk, which consists of walking around the track for two hours while talking.
10:00 - Snack.
10:10 - Play Bat Ball on the field
11:00 - Swim approximately 12 laps. But only a couple of people had their suits today, so we sat in the heat with our feet in the pool.
12:00 - "Lunch." But that means waiting in the pizza line with Steven Lo and then shoving my Lunchable Cracker Stackers down my throat as the bell rings.
12:10 - Go to wrestling room and do various exercises and stretches. This was actually quite hard.
1:30 - Go home.

It doesn't seem difficult...and you're right. But these simple activities mixed with the blazing heat for six hours exhausts you. Do you see my pain here?

[ I just want it to all end ]

if only you had stuck to water polo, you wouldn't have to even think about enduring those harsh conditions.

how is it with steven lo- the now unfitting junior?
