Period 3
Today was the first day of the ever so great state testing. As one would expect, we were jumping up and down with the joy of having to sit the entire period taking a required test, that was of course, six feet beneath our standards. As Eldridge was going over the sample questions, we looked at each other amazed at the simplicity of the questions. Although we were appalled by how easy it seemed, we were somewhat worried that a few of us may under think the test. Not only are we concerned with that idea, but we were also tackled with boredom. Approximately thirty to forty minutes into the exam, many of us became drawn under a sleep spell of some sort. I, for one, was fighting to keep my eyes open to complete my test. Despite having the luxury of food and snacks on my desk to keep me awake, I could not help but daze off for a few minutes. About five minutes into my nap, I felt the beady eyes of Beatrize staring at me, which awakened me. Luckily, I was not the only one in this situation. Vanessa Castillo, sitting two seats down and one seat over, was also taking a beating by those vicious sleep monkeys. She, on the other hand, won her battle and avoided the dreadfulness of “knocking out.” Racheal Solis, was not as fortunate as Ms. Castillo. About thirty minutes before the test was over, the evil Mr Eldridge made her exit the classroom so she can soak up the sun for a few minutes to keep her on her toes. This may have be a “suckish” thing for her, but it provided the rest of the class with some humor. Another loved classmate of ours, the lovely Savvanah P. (aka @iamthe_wild_one), also provided the class with a laugh or two. She decided to stretch in very uncommon way and make hilarious comments throughout this process. She single handedly made everyone’s day a tad bit brighter. With this being said, that was the last interesting event of the day. We handed in our tests as the bell rang, many of us not finishing, and were reminded the the essay our evil teacher assigned to us. Lazy day one might ask? No. the bright side to taking our English testing, is that it means we are one step closer to being done with California State Testing for the rest of our lives. This, im sure of, makes everyone obtain just a little bit of happiness to take home with them. One day down, one more to go! (Well for English anyways) >.<
