Getting Ready For Junior Year: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

So two nights ago, I couldn't sleep at all. It was one of those weird nights where you're really tired, but there is a bunch going through your head, so you get kind of deeeeeeep. Good news though, I wrote the first draft of a college essay! Fortunately, you guys don't need to worry about that for a year.

For now, let's explore Junior year! I think I'm going to break this up a bit, so first let's look at PE. In a few days, we'll look at Physics, Calc vs. Advanced Topics vs. Stats, the phenomenon that is Mr. Sutton, and anything else I can think of.

Junior/Senior PE
-For the last three years, PE has stayed pretty much the same. The first thing is that you're with your class (unless you have scheduling conflicts), so you know what your speed is compared to others, as well as knowing how different people would work in a team. The second this is that you know how the days work: switching from running to sports, and back again. However, that's going to change.

First off, now you're going to be in PE with us Seniors (hold the applause)! The new challenge is refiguring your place in PE. Let that sink in because...

Now there is more than one period for PE?? Yeah, there is like three or four now. So, some will run mornings, others in the afternoon. But that's nothing compared to...

No more sports (kinda)??? Yes, instead of sports, now you can go to weights. Now me, I enjoy weights more than sports, because I hate competing. There are also more than one weight workout. If you are not really an athlete, I recommend the general workout. However, knowing you Juniors, that's kind of like telling the Saints that if they are not superbowl champions, they should play peewee football... :]. Anyways, no worries: we still play sports from time to time :D. There is one more change...

Junior/Senior health class? Yep, we're bringing back health class straight from Freshman year. There are some differences though. For one, it's only once a month. Another, it's way more discussion based. Thirdly, it's targeted for our age group 16-18, instead of 13-15.

Anyways, I'll post soon! :]
