Thursday is another holiday for Muharram, Friday school, Saturday and Sunday holidays as usual and Monday anohter Monday Test, i.e. Science. I'm also making a poem on unit tests, how I hate them on one hand, and how they are extremely useful and necessary on the other. I will post it, and then I hope all will find it rather boring/interesting, it's up to you to decide.
