i'm in grade 9 this year and I have to take gym as a required class to graduate. i have it as my last class next semester, which starts on february 3. my problem is this: i have 2 months left before I have that class and I am already so scared. i suck at sports. i am scared of the ball and such. also we have to do things like hockey, swimming, gymnastics, and dance. i don't know how to skate, and i'm not flexible or a good dancer. i'm a good swimmer but i'm self conscious in a bathing suit.
however thats not even the worst part. the teacher is a freak.. i have some friends in her class this semester, and they tell me she has no sympathy for unathletic people. and she makes them do circuit training... lots of exercises for the whole 75 minutes, plus being timed outside while running.
sorry if my question was confusing but basically it all comes down to this: what can i do to calm myself down about it?
