Hey
I can't believe that the third term is already over. This year has gone by so fast. Which is really suprising since every day just seems to get longer and longer. I just can't wait for the summer. I don't have school tommorow because of Good Friday. In a couple of weeks I have to take the TIMSS test. It's a math and science test. My class just had to be selected to take it. They pick the testers randomly and my class got picked. When you read in newspapers in stuff about how good the American students are doing, they get their information from the TIMSS. My birthday is on April 18th, it's getting closer. I don't have school on my birthday because it's during spring break every year.

whoa cool our third term ended today too :D that means that we've been through 135 days of school and only have 45 left!!!! yay happy early birthday, are you going to do something special the day? our school took a random test like that too only it was called the NAEP, and three quarters of all these kids were randomly picked and it was pretty much a waste of a whole day because the teachers couldn't teach anything with only one quarter of everyone in classes. :p
personally i was selected to take the TIMSS but unfortuantely i have to take for USA eventhough im CHINESE.
um yeah but shawn you are still a US citizen.
The TIMSS aren't done by individual students, it's done by the class full. No one person is selected to do it, it's a completely random selection process.
