(Not sure if this would fit here or not)

Anyway, I have gym class this year and only the second week in I feel like shooting myself (not literally of course). I have to take 9th grade gym for the dumbest reason ever (I moved) and these kids are literally like 6th graders from where I used to live, like the immaturity is beyond anything I could have expected. Of course I'm pretty athletically challenged, I try but when I make a single mistake I get a million people yelling at me (Along with the teacher, who is a total jackass).

So yeah, I'm going to be stuck with these people every other day for the rest of the year, any advice on how I can make this any better than it should?

I know that feeling, Immaturity is in full blossom during High school. Kids also tend to think that Gym is the same as a Varsity sport so they try their hardest. My advice is fairly simple, Just TRY and find one friend who doesn't really like to participate to the full extent like the "try hards" do. Also, just don't listen to them, Don't let them get to you and just do what you want to do. If they want to yell at you, let them, Don't retaliate unless they are saying really nasty things. Be the bigger man and ignore them. Although, you may find A sport that you might like, and if that's the case you will have at least a week of fun :). Just look at it this way, you have LESS then a half of a year to go, then after that you are done!

Thanks! Yeah I thought I was done with gym last year, but apparently at my new school we gotta take it all 4 years, so I might even end up with some of the people next year OTL...

I guess I'll just do with what I have, I do have a few friends that are kind of in the same place as me thankfully haha
