My experience with 5th and 6th grade PE showcased just how much PE can fuck up one's curriculum, to the point said teacher would actually hold people in classes for way longer and eat through whatever CLASSES were after with her boring, mentally disturbed ramblings about her life in Northern Europe. She actually ignored cases of horrible sex abuse just for the sake of "looking good".

Oh and if you pointed out that she held people for two more hours THAN USUAL ON HER FUCKING CLASSES you'd get slammed with the idea that you just wanted to be fat and play on the computer, despite her actually witnessing a case of sex abuse right in front of her and her reaction was SLAP the victim and tell him to keep it down to look good to onlookers.

Fuck you Horsey.

It is true my school has new gym equipment and the art department can't afford new fucking gel pens.

I'm so glad I was unschooled.

Never regretted it for a second.

Yup.

It really is. I tried to get out of P.E. as much as I could during high school, actually, but once I finally had my first semester of P.E. sixth semester, I wanted so much more. :< I rarely ever had a lunch period since every semester of every year, I took both choir and band, and they were each a period long. We had an eight-period day. No lunch, no problem, I say. I munched in between classes here and there and it served me perfectly well.

Don't get me started on that damnable No Child Left Behind B.S. It started out with good intentions, I'll admit, but in practice, its a counterproductive pile of garbage. I would've flunked out of high school without special accommodations thanks to that crappy law.
