Aww, it's annoying isn't it!

Your female. At least you are not socially compelled to do all the social activities that require co-ordination, unlike poor males like me... :(


True true, I do like the fact I can get away with it. However I will eventually become so fat I cannot leave my bed if I carry on at this rate! :)

Hillwalking you can do whilst very clumsy - I do it to keep fit (albeit I don't really have a choice in it)

I can hit a birdie fine and dandy, it's when the rally starts that I get nowhere.

There is one advantage of my uni lol, the hillwalking is enforced. Which is a good job too, I doubt I could be bothered to do anything else really.

Hmm, they have a badminton team at my school. Maybe I could go to the practices... :D merci!
You could always try kickboxing, or bag training routines. They've got all sorts of pads for your poor legs too. Striking a training bag is a good workout and it teaches you a lot about stance, coordination, balance, I could go on.. It's great though.


Hmm I think I have the same problem in that they don't have the facilities at my boarding school and I don't really have the means to go anywhere else (boarding school in the middle of nowhere)

There is plenty of exercise equipment that you could buy reasonably cheaply for your room, if they let you. Which school is it you go to (dont feel you have to say if you dont want to). Just kind of curious, given the nature of my uni, I probably know someone who went there. Most of the people here are southerners from either grammars or boarding schools.

Haha yeah, I'm fair broke and my room is a tad small for that sort of thing. :) I spend most of my money on clothes and the rest on food....
Haha I expect you do, I go to Oakham school? I hate it so darn much, posh people and I don't really get on... :/

Thats kind of surprising, Facebook tells me that I don't know anyone who went there. Though it could be that they just have not added it on their profiles.

I loathe all the posh people too, worst still I go to uni with them all :( Its like liking with the aristocracy here...

Haha I am suprised by that one :) I think there are lots of people from my school who apply there. I just decided not to because I know they do, thus aim to avoid them! :) Another reason I really want to go to Imperial, few Oakham-people go there! :D

They probably just have not tagged it on their Facebook status. I doubt Imperial will be massively different with the types of people to be honest. Its the same Oxbridge reject circle :(

I think it will be better cos it's just sciences, and based on what I have seen, the most annoying posh people usually do something like business or english or history. not science! :)

I don't know to be honest whether it being sciences would help much, I still see a good load of rahs etc in my lectures for the sciences, though admittedly not as bad as politics.

Yeah, but I did look around Imperial and I didn't see a single rah!! :)

I hate them sooo much, especially after having to see them so heart-wrenchingly often!

No great advice, but I know what it's like! My legs are a playground for bruises. :lol:

All I can say is heel, toe, heel, toe. I've always had a habit of shuffling a bit and causing myself to stumble.

I am extremely uncoordinated. I barely can serve a volleyball. I have no athletic ability whatsoever. Having people pick on me for sucking at sports in gym class discouraged me from being physically active for a while. I also have no interest in sports whatsoever. Why should I be interested in something that I am harassed for being horrible at? Now I just exercise. I lift weights, run on the bike at the gym. Exercise is the best way to stay fit for people who lack any athletic ability.
