ExAFO 0 #26 February 6, 2008 Plan on selling most of my shit and moving to FL once I finish law school. Might have to spend some time in DZ bunkhouses while I get my new digs found... Illinois needs a CCW Law. NOW. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skydivellama 0 #27 February 6, 2008 I had just finished college, disappointed that I hadn't gotten into vet school in the states but figured I'd work for a few years and then try again. Had a job that I loved at an animal hospital in Alexandria, VA which was an awesome place to live. Then about four months after starting the job I went on a fun trip to New Zealand with my mom because we'd always wanted to see that country. Realized there was a vet school in New Zealand and that you could try to get in by going to school there for one semester and competing against 400-some people for one of the 100 spots in the vet program. That was in October 2005, by November I had a spot in the competitive semester which started the next February. It took about that long to get my visa. Not a very long time considering I moved about 9,000 miles without even being sure I would get into the vet school. I worked my ass off for the competitive semester, got into vet school and will be starting my 3rd year soon. New Zealand is awesome and there's a good chance I'll stay here permanently.
