So a quick update on my direction in life, apologies for brevity I am typing on my way to first class. I have found out about, applied for, and been accepted for, a university and high school linkage program which is for high school students to take up to 2 university subjects a year alongside the school stuff, we get an extra tutor for support and to ensure the load isn't too much. So I'm shortly starting a legal studies subject in online mode at uni, and by the time I finish year 12 at end of 2025 I will have done 4 or 5 legal studies units which will look good in my application for law school. Also with at least 4 uni subjects you can use that for applications, not just your year 12 results (not that that matters as I put effort in and my grades are very good). So yes I'm starting 1 subject online an intro to legal studies type unit and it is alongside my school work but it counts towards it so I do less subjects at school as this is taking a spot for that. So began my first steps towards going to law school, one day becoming a human rights lawyer, and some guys here I've chatted with know that I do want the top job and to be in the lodge in 30 years. 😏👍

Update: I have started my first uni subject alongside my school studies and I REALLY like Uni. Lots more freedom and autonomy in the style of study and although I'm by far the youngest student in the subject, everyone treats me as the young adult I really am and respects me like that, not the micromanaging infantilisation of the high school situation me and every other teen is raked into like cattle. So about a third of my time is towards my uni subject. As I said, this is a program that enables high achieving high schoolers to experience uni and begin taking subjects while concurrently still attending school, but the school load is reduced as I am dedicating time to my uni subject. So I'm really happy about that. Also, I am definitely noticing progress on the feel of the skin I have, maybe only another fraction in length, but I can feel the difference, it's looser and going in the right direction. So yeah! 👍👌☺️
