text: Last winter I found myself lying around a lot. I couldn't lift heavy things like I used to because I was so unfit. I was moving slower at school and my grades started to drop. I came to a conclusion that the reason why I wasn't feeling so great was because I didn't have any extracurricular activities. There wasn't anywhere I could go and have fun and workout my body and mind. I found that in order to be successful in life I needed to have a place to go that wasn't home or school. I needed distractions. Activities will help the students to have quick reflexes and to be fit. Or if you don't like to play sports, exercise your mind. Being fit makes everyone's life easy and not just the student's. That is another reason why I agree with the principal's decision to make all students participate in extracurricular activities.
