A FUTURE VETERINARIAN
DESTINI HUGHES (9-28-09):
Growing up, my family has always had animals in and around the house, and I think that is why I have such a love for animals now. I would like to be a small animal veterinarian, working with mostly dogs and cats. Right now there are five pets in our home but we've had a maximum of nine pets before. One of them is a sugarglider named Pockit which was actually my pet. But because I couldn't bring him to college with me I gave him
to my little sister. For those who don't know what a sugarglider is, they're like a smaller version of a flying squirrel. Sadly, they require a lot of attention and my little sister has become very busy with extra curriculum activities, so we are currently looking for a new home for Pockit. I am now taking a class called VETS which is my favorite class this semester.
