Now today I am going to be talking about Field Day, and let's just say it didn't turn out as amazing as I thought it would. When I got into the classroom most of the kids were wearing Field Day shirts. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring the money for the shirts so I couldn't get one. Anyway, it would have been a waste since this year's Field Day was horrible. My teacher showed the whole class what we were going to be doing for the day. Apparently, students wouldn't be able to create groups of their own to choose, instead, the whole class was your group and you needed to watch them play. The reason this year's format is entirely different is that we have new Health and Physical Education teachers. They are two entirely different people but take on the same responsibilities as the previous person to run the Field Day. His name was Dr Taylor but left to go to another school that paid him more money.

Anyway, there were a few different sections. They were Volleyball, Basketball, Tug of War, Dance Off, Over and Under, and Relay Race. My teacher assigned a spot to everyone and when there was space would give some people a second event. I got Tug of War and Over and Under. When he finished making the selections we all lined up and headed outside to the basketball court since that was the first section. The people that my teacher picked for Basketball destroyed the enemy team 5-0. It was pretty embarrassing. The class (7B) only had about 3 people that knew how to play the game, so the other two were pretty much useless. I was too sweaty to cheer since the sun was burning so I decided to just watch from afar. Once the game was over my classmates headed towards the field for the Dance Off. I thought this was going to be very interesting since my class has the best dancer and the other two students were very into K-Pop groups.

In the end, we won but it was very close. It was kind of funny at the end because the last girl was actually twerking (other class). A lot of people were laughing but in a way that gave her more support. The girl from my class was very competitive and went up to her face acting all sassy. I like the way she did it because it proved the two were very into the moves. Thankfully, my class won by a close call, we cheered a bit more than their's did. Moving right along, Volleyball was super easy. The score was 6-1 so I felt even worse than in Basketball. Our class just had more athletic students. Now it was time for me to actually play, and this was in Tug of War. This was the only game that I got to play because after this Field Day was cancelled. Apparently, the news sent a heat warning telling everyone to not go outside since it's just too hot. This led me straight to global warming and how eventually we are either going to drown or get burned.

Maybe not me, but the future generations for sure. Either global warming will cause the icebergs in Antarctica to melt and increase the water levels of the ocean 10xs or the heat from the sun will turn us humans into a crisp. Now, when I told my father this he said that he agrees and then I mentioned how his favourite president (Donald Trump) called it a Chinese Hoax. Now, he thinks that this is all fake and when I showed him the information on Youtube he claimed that the whole news organization is fake (CNN). So I tried to prove to him that it was real but in the end, the only person he'll really listen to is Donald Trump. But let me get back to the point, Field Day was horrible and I hope that next year they can add something totally new. Like, maybe a Soccer game! But no, they would probably never do that. Unless I ask... That is it for today's post! Let me know what you think in the comments down below.
