Consider how many activities you do outside of school. Remember that

school needs to be a priority. It's great to do extra things--as long as
they don't rob you of needed energy for learning. If you feel like you are
too busy, ask your parents if you can cut down to one or two favorite
things. You may try one activity one semester (i.e. being in a play) and
something different the next (playing a sport). We often feel we have to
do everything at once at once, and that can wear us out!

Mark Crimson
? = question MARK, so the note on the door reads Question Mark Crimson. He broke
your window.
