20 Things I'd Rather Do Than Take My Fitness Test
Melissa Tullar

August is here and that means school is right around the corner and for student athletes that means one thing; fitness test. The thing you’ve dreaded about all summer is creeping up on you. It’s not like you can't pass it, you have passed it before, and you will pass it again. It's just doing it and the fear of not passing that freaks you out. You pray and pray that your coaches will cancel it, but we all know they won’t so here are 20 things I’d rather do than take my fitness test.

1. Talk in front of a class

2. Cross a crosswalk blind folded

3. Wear the same outfit for a month

4. Swim with sharks

5. Puke in front of the cutest guy at school

6. Fail a midterm

7. Grow out my armpit hair and braid it

8. Brush my teeth and then drink orange juice

9. Watch 50 Shades of Grey with my parents

10. Never listen to music again

11. Listen to Hillary Clinton speak

12. Talk to my ex’s mother for 2 hours

13. Sit on a dirty gas stations toilet seat

14. Drink mayonnaise

15. Wear Crocs

16. Participate on Naked and Afraid

17. Roll around in cow poop

18. Apply to law school

19. Play Never Have I Ever with my family

20. Tell my coach I don’t want to take the fitness test

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
