Gamanit: VERY true. If I could take all that time I wasted waiting for time to be called on the English sections of the SAT and apply the time to the math sections, I would seriously get a 2400 or something.
Though the isolation chamber was meant to be boring. The anticipation of the tooth-pulling was meant to be painful.
A few more examples could be waiting during the SAT break when you don’t know anybody (or worse, when there are only two people and you’re the only girl and the other guy is the one who was popping gum and burping the ABCs while the proctor was waiting to start- TRUE STORY), driving for five hours in the car with only the license plate game to entertain you, and taking a class that teaches material that you already learned in a different class.

All I do know from watching what I watched of the trial is that I hope never to be a juror in a case like this. (What little stuff has a jury? Not traffic court, right?)
