Unraveling the past

Sometimes random thoughts enter my head.Recently I have been thinking about the impact that physical education at school had on me.Basically,apart from swimming and cross country,i hated every second of it.Yes,I was pretty hopeless at most of it,no getting away from that.I was the one that always was picked last in any team.
I was also unfortunate enough to grow up in the era when attitudes towards these activities,by teachers was entirely different to anything that would be acceptable today.From the getting ready for PE to actually doing it.It was torture and some of it would be seen as mild child abuse nowadays.I can hardly believe that I survived it all.No wonder I couldn’t wait to leave school.
