Love these things! 1~ My favorite subject might probably Spanish or English! 2~ Probably Thursday or Friday (surprisingly sometimes Mondays). 3~ Probably a pen or a led pencil. 4~ There are some times that school is great but other times you just have to dislike it! 5~ *high fives* 6~ Ughh I hate tests! It's just so stressful and makes you have to remember every little thing you learned in that class. Ty for the questions
