Sorry, I was on vacation over Easter weekend. I'll be catching up with everything tomorrow.
No homework all week! It sounds weird, but yeah for standardized testing!

Maybe yay! for no homework, but not for standardized testing. Standardized testing (I assume you mean your state test) is an abyssmal waste of government funds and an example of the multi-culty atmosphere of modern education. From my experience, state test don't actaully measure any knowledge a student may posess, but instead focus their questions more on how a student "feels." But what is worse than that is that schools these days focus more on teaching to the test, rather than teaching a set curriculum, which is dumbing down our students. So while state or standardized tests are good for no homework (its this week here too, but I don't have to take it, yet I get to go to school two hours late), they are a complete waste of time as far as I'm concerned, since they are of no value and only serve to provide evidence of the drastic decline in educational quality in this nation.
But anyway, welcome back, and I hope to play with you again soon.

The sad thing is, more colleges want to make sure you passed that test than want to know what kind of extracurricular activities in which you were involved.
