Dear Mom & Dad,
Guess what’s happening at camp in three days? The St. Bernard Games. You know, like the Olympics? But at camp.
Sports.
Competitive sports.
And me. Me, Webkinz World’s clumsiest and least-athletic rabbit. You know what’s going to happen, right? I’ve considered the most likely outcomes:
1. I break my leg.
2. I make someone else trip and break their leg.
3. I break the equipment, ruining the games for everyone.
Anyway you look at it; things aren’t going to turn out well. Molly and Cowabelle have tried to get me to practice, but I just can’t do it. I just HATE sports. Everyone else seems to think this is going to be tons of fun.
I don’t.
I wish camp was just all about crafts and drama. Sports wreck everything.
Other than that, things are going well.
But these games are really making me nervous.
Send me good luck, mom and dad!
Love,
Roberta
omg that is very funny I so want to know the writer of this.
Roberta, Roberta, Roberta…
I agree (kind of) with Roberta. I broke my foot (kind of) running with everybody else in a medium sized room. But I still do sports, though.
im just like roberta(only im not a rabbit lol) hehe!! i h8 spors & they h8 me so hahah!! :D
UH ROBERTA NOT TO BE RUDE BUT DON’T BE SUCH WHINER!
sorry but really you are kinda whinny why don’t you just practice?you all ready making your friends sad probly for not working with them just go out their and have fun watch ware you go don’t go near people and if you would practice you wouldn’t be so clumsy sorry about the yelling but just have FUN
Really? I’m going to be a freshman in high school this year, and I’ve never played sports. I don’t like sports, and I’m clumsy too. That doesn’t make ME a whiner. She’s not whining, she’s just stating that she doesn’t like sports and is explaining why. If her friends are real friends, they won’t care if she likes sports or not. Honestly, it doesn’t matter what her friends think about her not liking sports. I might sound pushy, but it’s true. $~Addict502~$
Hey, don’t be made at Robertsa, everyone has their prefrences, I mean I’m not a fan of hockey, it’s just not my kind of thing, doesnt mean i’m whiney!
You can do it Roberta! Fast and Steady!
Aw, poor Roberta. I like some sports and all and I like crafts and art! For people like Roberta, just do your best and try not to worry about the sports. Maybe talk to one of the counselors and maybe they can add things that you like to the games, such as a puzzle that you have to finish first before the other groups. When you finish, run to the obstacle course and do a race! I think this would be really fun! If you agree, respond!
~*Emeraldleaf* :mrgreen: ~
I know how you feel about the clumsy part. I trip walking on flat surfaces. I’m one of the most clumsy people I know. :) Anyway, they can’t MAKE you participate in the games. Tell them you aren’t comfortable with playing in the games, and they might offer an alternative. Good luck. $~addict502~$
Roberta, a tip if there is a race. Go slow and walk at the starting point and when everyone gets to the finishing point, you have saved your energy so run as fast as life and you might not win #1 place but you will probably get at least #3! :)
Wow I am exactly like Roberta! I despise sports. :( I stink at them. I twisted an ankle just trying soccer. ~lynxlover
I used to play soccer, though I never really was great at it. It was more of something to do on weekends. I’m not as sporting as my cousin who still isn’t talking to me. One time in soccer practice, I tried punting the ball, (it was the skill we were practicing) and I fell right down in the grass. It was super funny, and major embarassing. I don’t play soccer anymore. :oops:
I used to do soccer too, and like you, I was never really good at it. I know exactly how Roberta feels.
Well, I like sports and I’m good at them. :evil:
No offense Roberta, but stop being such a scary rabit! Just try it, your being a baby by refusing to do it. No offense, but it is the truth and it needs to be heard. I hate that so many people see sports as a bad thing. ( There is a difference from hating it and being horrible at it, I see that difference. ) Me, being a sports nut, play soccer. Actually, I am goalie for a Club Soccer Team! I had a tournament last week and we beat the defending champions! I sprained my ankle a week ago, lynxlover and sprained my wrist yesterday by catching the ball uncorrectly making my wrist bend backwards. But I am an athlete and you have to get used to the pain.
Roberta, if you try you would like it. -Moonstar◙◙◙
I’m more of a literature nut (nerd and proud of it! XD) , but I do like individual sports. I’ve never really been a “people” person, I work fine with others but better on my own. That’s why I like sports like swimming, martial arts, gymnastics, etc. I love swimming, since even though you compete as a team, it’s more of a race against yourself.

Sorry lynxlover I am NOT bad at sports I just don’t like them except for volleyball and kickball so i guess I am like Roberta too -Wittygirl23 ☺☻♥ ♠ ♣ ♦ ○ ◘ •
I hate sports, too! I like dancing, but other than that, sports are just so….hard! And you have like move around! When people ask what sport I play, I say ‘guitar’. LOL. I sing too :) ~Amethyst Sparkle ♫♦♥♦♥♫
Agreed!! I love dance and stuff just not sports!
hi Amethyst Sparkle and lynxlover! I’m on a competitive dance team and I have the same opinion as you. At first, I did basketball, then I quit because I DID NOT LIKE IT!!:) Next, last year I tried volleyball, and I really liked it. But I am really clumsy at bball, soccer, and even kickball for some reason that I cannot explain! But, I;m fine with the running in it though. But DO NOT get the impression that I like running:)
I hate running. Once we were running around a track at school and a boy i don’t like was close in front of me and made fun of how I was slow so I ran as fast as I could and I beat him. After that I hurt my leg but it was worth it to see that kid’s red face behind me!!! :D ~lynxlover
I can sprint (means run as fast as you can) really good. I have only been in track and field for two years and in the sprint the first year i got 2nd place and this year i got 1st place! Both years i also got 1st place in running long jump. My favorite 3 sports would be skating(not hockey), swimming, and you guessed it, running!
Have a Great Summer! -Serene :)
I can’t believe it. Robetera does not ike EVERY SINGLE sports game.
I’m not good at sports except running. Soccer is fun too. The games sound really awesome though.
~(*)sparklegilrLT(*)
I think sports are fun. Especially volleyball!! Luv from LillyLuvie**** :)
I’m not a huge fan of team sports, but I love individual sports! Swimming is my favorite (and best) sport. I only swim on a summer league, so this year I want to try Tae Kwon Doe. But this fall I am going to try out for my school’s volleyball team.
-☼Mudstar☼
I’ve done Tae Kwon Doe before! I did soccer when I was younger, and this spring I started again. I’m already signed up for fall soccer! I understand that some people don’t like sports, but I find a lot of them fun! Besides soccer, and Tae Kwon Doe (which I don’t do anymore), I also play tennis often, and I swim quite a bit, but just for fun, not competitive.

P.S. Could somebody please tell me where to find the tribute to Moonstar? I’d really like to read it! Thanks!
Me too i’m not good at basketball because I’m short. In soccer I never get the balll, baseball I never hit the ball, but volleyball I’m so good at so I always hit the ball right, swimming is fun but I’m no fast swimmer.
Yeah LillyLuvie! I agree with you! Some people think sports are only for boys! But I am a girl and I LOVE sports! I am trying out for the girls basketball team this year! Also I ice skate! And I have been swimming ALL MY LIFE! Ever since I was 5 I have taken lessons and now I am a competitive swimmer doing competiontions for medals and such! I want to earn a collage scolarship and maybe become an Olympic Swimmer! Oh well. That dream seems far away. Anyway I liked that play!
BYE!! from Riley :D :) :mrgreen:
She doesn’t even like GYMNASTICS for crying out loud! I love gymnastics!!
Sad that Roberta doesn’t even like sports that you can play in a playground, like lacrosse for example.And tennis.
Poor Roberta!!!!!!!!!!
I like net ball, running and hurdles.
Love,
