Thursday Threads- The Day I was Sporty

True or False..

 I'm a very athletic person.

False.

In both Junior High, and High School,
I came up with just about every excuse to not participate in P.E.
Sometimes I forgot my clothes, so I couldn't dress down.
Sometimes I had really really bad cramps. (This one was a frequent excuse)
Sometimes I was just sick.

The people in my class probably thought there was something seriously wrong..
 I just don't like sport.
I was the girl who ate lunch with my art teachers for goodness sakes.
The one time I did participate was..
Badminton.

I rule at badminton.
This is my Badminton Outfit. 

Though, it wasn't meant to be. 
I just happened to play badminton in this once.
I felt cool.

Wolf Shirts Are Awesome T-shirt- Gift from my Boyfriend

Did you have any good get-out-of- Gym class/P.E. excuses? 
I would LOVE to know..
Just in case.

  5. I was always terrible at coming up with excuses. I can relate on the badminton, though - ALWAYS my favorite. It was also the one sport I was remotely good at, conveniently.

  9. I had PE as my homeroom class for my last 3 years of high school. I wish I had the energy now to start every day with 1 hour of exercise! Now dog walking is my exercise & with a Pug, I don't have to go too fast ;)
    Love your sneakers!

  12. My excuse (that not many people can use...) 'Well, i have Osteogenesis Imperfecta, soooo i dont think i should play football, because i broke my hand catching one last year... I'll just walk laps.' Very slow laps.

  14. Thanks! :)
    I didn't make the shirt, my boyfriend bought it for me. I'm not sure where he got it. :)

  15. My school never let us get out for cramps. They would say excercise helped. It would make me mad, because I also hated gym.

    By the way, your outfit is so cute!

  17. Thanks Bethany! My hair is actually naturally curly! It gets way curly when it's longer. Back when I lived in the south it was always always wavy from the humidity. :)
