More or less.

Roman law is one that I know I won't actually need to use, so I was learning to pass the exam, rather to actually remember the stuff on a longer term basis.
Hey, I don't even need to learn the latin words. They specifically told me not to. But I think it's fancy. It's the only thing that's fun about law: adagia and ancient Roman laws. Whenever my brother says he can't give me my money back I say genus non perit. Scares the hell out of him.

I've been 'invited' by the Golden Key International Honour Society and Who's Who Among Students - apparently they're a scam because they want you to pay them to be recognized.
Isn't that how these exclusive clubs work though? You join, but then someone has to pay for the club to exist, so that'll be you then.

Languages ain't my strong point, so I was happy to focus more on the content of the law rather than learning much Latin.

A well placed bit of Latin can be magnificent if throw into a conversation appropriately, though.

Me and my cousin are both capable of throwing a dash of Spanish into conversations. It baffles the rest of our family :D.

    You can rent them in Firenze. I've seen a lot of fat Americans on them. In fact, I've only seen fat Americans on them. Why do you always send your fatties to Firenze by the way? I see normal Americans in Bologna, normal Americans in Torino, but always fatties in Firenze.
    Because we thought the huge fat greasy Italian food-loving woppers in Firenze would like them, so we deported them over there, Waffles.
    What's done?
