Reason 0: An Introduction

All the best books I have ever read had some sort of introduction. Sometimes it was just a foreword from the author, or other times it was setting the scene with background on the era the book takes place. This is my introduction.

I have wanted to be a veterinarian since I was a small child, and while this seems to be a common theme in the whole veterinarian pursuit for some people, it is such a critical part of who I have always been. As a child I practiced being observant on my own pets, from my fish to my cocker spaniel. This developed when I got accepted in college as an Animal Science Pre-Veterinary Medicine major. Although there was a time that I allowed myself to be discouraged by those who told me I could not do it, after exploring several other options and being pointed to vet school over and over again, I've decided that I'm going to apply and hope that someone gives me a chance.

This is my list of reasons why I believe I should go, why I can go, and remind me about what I love about this field that will keep me going.
