swimming in gym is so stupid !

We’re swimming right now in gym. I think it’s ridiculous. It's inconsiderate. It’s torture. And we’re swimming for three whole weeks. I can’t believe it! I think that is really stupid for many, many reasons. One reason being that there’s no point in having to swim in gym class at school. Basically everyone knows how to swim and if someone doesn’t then maybe they just don’t want to or don’t care. Another reason I don’t like it at all is because it is so cold. I have gym third hour and I’m still usually a little chilly at 10:00 in the morning. We get to the locker room and right away have to get in our bathing suits and rinse off in the showers. Everyone is shivering and freezing cold. Then we go out into the pool area and have to sit in the bleachers for a few minutes and freeze some more. When we finally get in the pool we start our laps. The point of doing laps? I have no clue. And while one person at a time goes, the other people in the group have to just stand there and freeze. The biggest thing that is so cruel about having gym 3rd hour is that there’s no point in trying to look cute for the three weeks of swimming at school because in third hour our hair and makeup just gets all messed up anyways. The guys have it easy because they don’t have to worry about either of those two things. One last thing that bugs me about the whole swimming thing is the hassle in the locker room. With changing in to our bathing suits, then getting right out of them again twenty minutes later. Also, having to keep our towels and suits in the lockers when they don’t dry at all and then start to smell. EW!!! I don’t think that swimming should be something the schools are made to do at the schools because it’s so troubling for most of the students and there is absolutely no point to it. I think it’s so stupid.
