Thoughts on "Miss Representation"

Last week we watched a film called "Miss Representation". I feel like girls can be both intelligent and look pretty at the same time, but what I heard from this movie was that most guys are basically sexist cowards who go for the looks. I could relate to this movie because it was all about girl-power and having that ablility to put as much effort into things like men do and having independence, which applies to what we're doing in this Get Fit class; all the girls need to cooperate and push each other to do things.

Why I chose to take Get Fit

The reason why I chose Get Fit this year is because I wanted to try out something a little bit different than just regular PE, where I didn't feel like I fit in too well. My goals for this semester is to push my self more and focus on my own abilities and my personal health, which may be difficult considering I have PE everyday! I know that this class is different, as it is the only class full of girls, which may be a good thing because some of my friends are in this class and also because most of the time in a regular PE class, I found that I really disliked doing group activities, or maybe I didn't put my best effort into doing anything and tried to avoid doing stuff, but I understand now that whatever I do in PE only benefits me and it doesn't matter about what other's think. Therefore, I hope that this class will open my mind up about PE and why it's important.
