I know its crazy expensive but i love Starbucks hot chocolate. Its awesome. I dont drink Starbucks too much so anytime I go its a rare treat :D
Yes, their hot chocolate is amazing! On the other hand, I think Dunkin Donuts hot chocolate is horrible.

Well, personally, I fele no one should be exempt, unless you are mentally disabled, or have a physical ailment (i.e. you're blind).
I do fall in one of those categories. Let's just end it at that.

I fall in to your category, and interestingly enough, I wasn't eligible for exemption, but I was eligible for extra time (no time limit). I barely passed the Language Arts section but I aced the math part with an above average score. Go figure. You should go and take it at least once to see how you would do, even if the score won't count.

I passed math last year, but failed the english portion with a 191 out of 300. They told me I didn't have to take it again because of a condition I have that causes me to have a weakness in the subject (and the testing itself).

Do you have to take any special types of tests instead? Just curious

To clarify, by mentally disabled, I meant mentally disabled as in you can barely function (which obviously you can).

Got my hands on graphic design finally...



EDIT: I'm going to tweak the color of the cup a little later on, because my professor said I exceeded the amount of colors I used.

I could also qualify for extra time on the ACT and Michigan Merit Exam this week, but among the many things I don't believe in (snowblowers, etc), I DO NOT believe in, or accept special help. I denied it the second I was asked if I wanted extra time on the ACT/MME.

Nope, other than any tests that would require me to get into a college of course (I don't need to take SATs either since I'm going to community college after I'm done high school next year).

I'm not quite clear what test you guys are referring to... Is it the standardized test?

Patrick- I'm sorry you've been so down lately. :/ Know that you (or anyone else here) can feel free to PM me if you ever want to vent about something. I'll always listen. :yes:

I'm pretty sure they are referring to that, Derek. CA doesn't have them till late April-early May.
Right now it's the CAHSEE (CA High School Exit Exam). Man, that test was a pain in the  :censored:.

Ohh, is it the exit exam then?? I remember the CAHSEE. I didn't think it was thaaaaaaat bad. I did really well on that. Now I've got lots of nasty tests coming up. I got the SAT this Saturday, ACT next month, the subject tests next month, and the AP exams.

Back in 2007 TWC and Dish Network sponsored a car in the NASCAR Busch (now called Nationwide) Series. The #26 car was driven by Todd Kleuver and raced at Chicagoland Speedway in July 2007.

Real picture of the car (courtesy jayski.com):


My rendition of the car (made in The GIMP for NASCAR Racing 2003):


This is the first real NASCAR paint scheme that I've tried to recreate for NR2003. I still need to add all of the associate and contingency sponsor decals.

To me, it was pretty bad. Had to go to summer school two times because I could not pass the math portion. I did really well on English, though.  I finally passed it before entering senior year.

I wish you luck on the SAT ths weekend. :)
