Just a start....

Where do I actually start? Hmmm.... well I guess at one point I was a small minded child up until I was about 4 when my older brother informed me that there was no Santa Claus and then I stopped believing everything and everyone at one point. But other than that my life has been devoted to myself and as it should be to some extent. I was born and raised (until I was 9) in Huntington Beach, California and I have been surrounded by pets ever since then. At one point in my life I was so obsessed with pets that I wanted to be a Vet, but decided to not be some years ago.
This was my first dog.... actually scratch that.... this is my parents first dog, but my first dog interactions none the less. His name is Boscoe and my parents picked him up before us children were born. He was born blind, but that is actually why my parents adopted him because he had these gorgeous blue eyes.

From then on out I have loved animals and have been surrounded by them. At one point in my house we had 3 fish, 3 dogs, 3 mice, and a baby chick. The chick is an interesting story all on its own. We got Henry, that's his name and I know chicks are girls, but we got him from my school because we were hatching baby chicks in class and we got to take them home sometimes. It was probably one of the most interesting experiences I had had growing up. And you wont even believe how loud these guys are they just cherp and cherp all day. Yes, it can be quite annoying but it was very entertainning.

At the moment I do not have any pets right now. First time in a long time. My dog Max died my senior year of high school after having him for 5 years and I haven't had the guts to go out and adopted another one. I will have to consider doing that more as I get older and decide to make decisions with my life.

Well these are some of my experiences and I hope everyone has a good semester and I will see you guys in class.
