School Sports 11 years plus

Sports at school

This was one thing I enjoyed but I just couldn't for the life of me get to grips with what it was all about. I found that sport really contridicted itself because its based on gameplay yet people would take it to heart and would be very serious about winning and coming first and I knew that to come 3rd or even last was a great achievement for me. So really all my life I had always settled for being the person who could not achieve a thing. I could always achieve something in my mind though and my imagination would allow me to do just about anything I could wish for. From early on swimming was just horrorifying to me because of the echo's and loud noises that would bounce about the swimming pools. The smell of Clorine would make me feel in danger and thoughts of hospitals would come in to mind. Being in water was relaxing for me and I loved the suspension and floating experience that being in water would deliver. I eventually did learn myself how to swim later on from in my senior time and I will delve more into that later on. Changing rooms now they were just plain freaky and even today I prefer to go into cubicles to get changed. I can not see why people find it easy to just stand around naked in front of other people obviously of the same sex but still its not something I do. I heard later on in life that people with aspergers did not like this but when I was at school I would have been called names for going away to change. Pansy or puff would have come from the other kids or even some of the macho PE physical education teachers.
