This means that 1. I get home from school around 6pm and 2. (more importantly) it’s very hard to socialize when you don’t board at the school, and there’s really very little besides drama or sports (neither of which I like very much) that people do after school and actually enjoy/make friends in.
Sports or physical fitness in general is an important activity to stay healthy. A lot of the processing power of our brain goes to coordinating the body. If you have better balance less of your processing power needs to go towards coordinating your body, even if you sit in a math test.

Are you saying that you don’t have good friendships with other students at the moment?
I actually wouldn’t mind being on track, but the very large time commitment (meets are usually at least an hour away) and the competitive aspect are deal-breakers for me, as they are for the other sports.
I have one or two friends, but the fact that we all live so far away and that most kids at the school are already in cliques and/or really fake and pretentious makes it hard.
