Cinco de Mayo is a holiday to celebrate the Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla on May 5th 1862. It is actually a big deal in the United States. A lot of people do celebrate it. The only thing some people do is eat tacos because it is a mexican holiday. I don't think it should become a national holiday because it is more celebrated in the US than it is in Mexico. The only thing that they do in Mexico is observe political speaches and battle reenactments.
Yesterday was officially "National No Homework Day." The creaters of this day were Thomas and Ruth Roy of Wellcat Holidays. It actually does sound like a great idea but I still had homework yesterday. I spent national no homework day in school then after school I had homework so I had to do it.
