WEBVTT - MINI: Marlie is starting school soon and Laura is FEELING things  🖍

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:02.800
<v Speaker 1>We have hit a huge milestone in our family, and

0:00:02.880 --> 0:00:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that is Marley May. She's five years old. She is

0:00:05.800 --> 0:00:08.719
<v Speaker 1>starting school next year. She's going to be hurt. It's

0:00:08.800 --> 0:00:11.480
<v Speaker 1>so cute. It's her very very first year. She is

0:00:11.560 --> 0:00:14.040
<v Speaker 1>our oldest daughter, and so it's not just a first

0:00:14.040 --> 0:00:16.840
<v Speaker 1>for her, but obviously it's a first for us as parents.

0:00:17.040 --> 0:00:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Happened very quickly.

0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Well, I don't know if it did. Did It just

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:21.760
<v Speaker 1>feels like it creeped up on me though it's growing up.

0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Five years happened, No, I know, you like she was

0:00:24.560 --> 0:00:26.480
<v Speaker 1>just born. And you've got to remember. So Britta and

0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:28.760
<v Speaker 1>I we met when I was pregnant with Marley May.

0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:31.520
<v Speaker 1>So we started our podcast Life on Cut when I

0:00:31.600 --> 0:00:34.600
<v Speaker 1>was seven months pregnant. So it kind of feels a

0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:36.919
<v Speaker 1>little bit as though, like every year that Marley has

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>a birthday, it's kind of feels a bit of a

0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:41.479
<v Speaker 1>work milestone for us as well, because it's around the

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:45.000
<v Speaker 1>time that we became friends. So five years it's that's

0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:47.960
<v Speaker 1>a long time. And then she's gonna start school next year.

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:50.680
<v Speaker 1>She's so excited for it. She's very very ready. She's

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.319
<v Speaker 1>a super smart little cookie. But last week we had

0:00:53.400 --> 0:00:56.080
<v Speaker 1>our school orientation, and so I thought the school orientation

0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:58.640
<v Speaker 1>was for the kids, but they do a parent school

0:00:58.680 --> 0:01:01.840
<v Speaker 1>orientation first. So all of the parents went to the

0:01:01.840 --> 0:01:04.320
<v Speaker 1>school hall on one night that and I made it

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:06.080
<v Speaker 1>into a date night. We went out for dinner afterwards.

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:09.240
<v Speaker 1>But we sat there and they had like a presentation

0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:11.920
<v Speaker 1>around what was going to happen, like a presentation around

0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:14.960
<v Speaker 1>the canteen and how the kids can order their lunch.

0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 2>In the canteen system. It's a pretty nice canteen. Do

0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 2>they still just do like migpies.

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.840
<v Speaker 1>No, No, everything's like you know, the five star health

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:22.319
<v Speaker 1>rating now.

0:01:22.319 --> 0:01:25.600
<v Speaker 2>So they they had no brown paper bag with a text.

0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:27.440
<v Speaker 1>I think it's the same. I think you put everything

0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:29.319
<v Speaker 1>into a washing basket and then they take it down

0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:31.200
<v Speaker 1>to the canteen and a brown paper bag and then

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:31.640
<v Speaker 1>they go and.

0:01:31.600 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 2>Pick it up and eat it in their lunch. Nostalgia.

0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:35.679
<v Speaker 1>And now they had the thing called it's called crunch

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.000
<v Speaker 1>and Sip where they have a ten minute break before

0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:40.040
<v Speaker 1>recess where they go, yeah.

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 2>They got but they get smoke.

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 1>They have a smoko break before recess.

0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:46.640
<v Speaker 2>Where they lunch recess.

0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so they get to eat an apple or a

0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:52.320
<v Speaker 1>piece of vegetable or it's sorry too easy.

0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:53.400
<v Speaker 2>We used to go.

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:54.640
<v Speaker 1>We used to go.

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.640
<v Speaker 2>First of all, you'd start to recess, there was no break.

0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Then you'd get like ten chicken nuggets. I can't help

0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:04.160
<v Speaker 2>you about that, steep fried processed chicken pizza pocket, pizza pocket.

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:06.600
<v Speaker 1>This is like a very reminiscent of like back in

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:09.080
<v Speaker 1>my day. That's what I feel when you had to

0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 1>walk all those kilumbus to school. No, but then the

0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:13.560
<v Speaker 1>other thing, which I had completely forgotten about this and

0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>I just think it is the most adorable thing ever.

0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Is you know how you get a buddy when you're

0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:21.040
<v Speaker 1>in kindergarten, You get paired with a buddy, do you remember.

0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Remember, Yeah, it's someone older, ye young to show them

0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:25.040
<v Speaker 2>the ropes.

0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:26.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so like a kid from year six, every single

0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:29.760
<v Speaker 1>kindergartener gets like matched up with a buddy system. So

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 1>like they So Molly's going to get to meet her

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:33.840
<v Speaker 1>buddy next week at the actual school orientation.

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 2>A six student, a.

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Year six student that's picked out just for her. She

0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 1>stays like that buddy stays with them all through the

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:40.200
<v Speaker 1>first year of kindergarten.

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:42.200
<v Speaker 2>Do you think they're gonna know that Molly May is

0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 2>like famous?

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:48.680
<v Speaker 1>No, she's not famous famous. So the problem is though

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 1>I was sitting there and they were talking about this,

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:53.959
<v Speaker 1>and then I remembered. I was like, I never got

0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.120
<v Speaker 1>a buddy. This is why I did. I thought it

0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.240
<v Speaker 1>was such a novelty. So when I was in year six,

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:00.600
<v Speaker 1>I was only one of three kids in my year

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.120
<v Speaker 1>that were denied a kindergarten buddy because we were too

0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:06.079
<v Speaker 1>naughty and we were deemed to be a bad influence.

0:03:06.120 --> 0:03:07.520
<v Speaker 2>So I never got a buddy.

0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:10.120
<v Speaker 1>It was so bad, you know, I almost got expelled

0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>from my primary school.

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:13.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't recommend this at all.

0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I got really angry at a boy who was teasing me,

0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:16.679
<v Speaker 1>and I punched him in the face in front of

0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 1>the assembly. That's feminism, thank you, thank you. So I

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 1>was before my time the patriarchy.

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:22.799
<v Speaker 2>How different we are, Laura.

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:25.639
<v Speaker 1>I also wasn't given a buddy when I was in

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:27.320
<v Speaker 1>year six, but that's because I was school captain and

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I was too busy running the ship. Oh, I was

0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:32.959
<v Speaker 1>like so important person here.

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.600
<v Speaker 2>I was school captain. But I was given a buddy,

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:37.360
<v Speaker 2>right and then I forgot them and then like I

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 2>reckon toilet. I don't know, I was very busy, you know,

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.280
<v Speaker 2>it was like Kamala Harris. Anyway, about six months ago,

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:44.560
<v Speaker 2>someone on the street came up to me was like Mitch,

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:46.400
<v Speaker 2>Mitch Cherry Hi, and I was like, ah, here we

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:49.160
<v Speaker 2>got a radio fan being spotted and they went, you

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:51.240
<v Speaker 2>were my buddy when I was in year six.

0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:53.080
<v Speaker 1>You thought thought they.

0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:54.320
<v Speaker 2>Were going to get a photo, but in fact they

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 2>remembered me as their buddy. How do they remember? I

0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:57.320
<v Speaker 2>don't know.

0:03:57.520 --> 0:03:58.440
<v Speaker 1>You're very memorable.

0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:00.240
<v Speaker 2>Also, once on a dating app, I messaged some them,

0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:01.760
<v Speaker 2>was like, Hi, how are you want to meet up?

0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:03.520
<v Speaker 2>And they were like, you're my buddy. I was in

0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:05.600
<v Speaker 2>the year seven, year in your twelve. He's like, yeah,

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:06.560
<v Speaker 2>I want to be a buddy again.

0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I guess it's first for everyone, right and show.

0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Them the ropes. No, this was after the school. They

0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:11.840
<v Speaker 2>were in their mid twenties. Al Right, I don't know

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 2>if I should have told that story.

0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 1>I really took a segue, but I'm okay with it. Anyway,

0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:17.960
<v Speaker 1>A massive massive milestone in our house hold.

0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:18.560
