Hedge trimming would be way more fun to watch. If you had a cat that likes to chase things, it would be like a miniature, living, model of Africa in your back yard.

It was from before that episode aired. Have a kid that loved giraffes, and we'd go see them a lot at the zoo. The place it came from was laziness because the zoo is on the complete opposite end of the city, and I didn't want to drive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) Leave me the **** alone please but I was on Youtube and went deep dive and ended up on Adele "Someone Like You." I was beyond baffled by the fact that her 21 album is a decade old. I legit got pissed off. Feels like yesterday and I would've guessed 5 years ago. Then I realized "Hello" was 5 years ago. God, I hate getting older. Time really blends, man. Your parents don't lie to you about that. Edited December 16, 2020 by beekay414 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving is both one of the worst things known to humankind, and also...if it goes well, at the end, one of the best things. But mostly, it's just the worst.

Good with my kids, you feed it meat, and it just absolutely destroys all rodents, opossums, and raccoons. My girls love their farm cats (we live in the township on a few acres), so a domestic panther would be pretty hilariously amazing. @Forge shhhhhhhh he's onto us! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway...Don't forget the little people, when you catch the big kahuna imo. the way they do law degrees here, you do a bit of your law degree and your other degree for the first two years (30/70 there and there abouts is the split) and then the final two years are straight law; if you were to do just a JD here it would be yeah three years, and with a three or four year degree before that taking it to 6 or 7 - but if you do it alongside another degree the way i have you can save time, albeit at the cost of some electives in your main degree. i used most of my economics degree electives on sports science, which is the only science i do haha tbh i couldn't even name you the big six law firms in australia - big law isn't really my ideal goal. poorer litigants and those who struggle for representation and to achieve justice, i've done a lot of work with already and plan to work with those sorts of claims once i've graduated too - it's much more rewarding to me than underwriting contracts for a mining company, and it's the thing that got me in to law to begin with in part coming from that sort of background myself and living on the ground what it means to be on the margins 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's so weird. Kinda cool. Seems like a better way to avoid at least some of the burnout and jaded quality most lawyers seem to emerge with. But like...how do they choose who gets to do a "law degree" starting from your first year of college? Do you just do it, and it narrows down by grades/performance year by year? Or does Australia just have an absolutely enormous number of lawyers? Or is it just based on your grades/testing scores coming out of High School, which seems kinda wonky? Or do you just take an LSAT type test right out of High School? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
