Working out is great, once you get a routine down and can stay motivated. PE class is perfect for both of those!

I always feel much better and relaxed (tired) after a good session with the free weight and bench.

I wish I went with weight class for P.E, but I went with Team Sports [More cuz I can't work well on a team anymore and thought that I should actually get in a class that revolves around teamwork and effort XP]. However, I do weightlifting/cardio shtuff every other weekday, and Saturday and after that I always feel good.

I only have one actual textbook though, and that's for French. All the others exist, but we barely ever touch them [besides in English, cuz it has all the stories].

I currently have a book for every class except Orchestra and Gym. I also have a binder for them, too. Feels like my backpack is full of bricks. =D

The heavy kind, mind you. Not the ones with studs. I'd love to have a backpack full LEGO bricks. =P

I think we called them pull ups, just get your chin above the bar. I vaguely remember being able to do three in middle school. Books can be killer on you. Carrying them around all day and then home is never fun...
