I want to become a veterinarian (only in year 2 of pre-vet) and my FI is a herpetologist (reptile/amphibian biologist). Is anyone else a future biologist or vet?

    I really like the food animals, but will most likely end up in a mixed animal practice.  My FI is an aerospace enginerd so we will always be tied to a big city which makes cattle hard to find. 

    I am considering getting my MPH in the future and working in epidemiology/ disease control we shall see!

    Ooh fun! I find epidemiology fascinating. I am more of a cat/ dog kind of person, though. I think I may work at a small animal clinic in the future. I am waiting until I get further into school to really decide, though. My FI has got me really interested in wildlife, so I might go that route instead. 

    Anyway, I couldn't help but notice you are getting married May 2011, too. I can't believe we are finally at the one year mark! I have been engaged for a year, and this whole wedding planning thing is just crazy (especially while going to school at the same time). How are you managing everything?

    yeah my family doesn't know where I came from (being in love with the large animals) I grew up in Houston with dogs... haha! but I just really like them, and the herd management.  I dunno kinda crazy!  I do love small animals too, I like it all! (although I have learned zoo is not for me)  Its good to keep your options open, so many people change their minds once they get out in practice even.  That is why I am so glad we have to learn everything so doors don't close!

    That is crazy you are a may11 bride! you should come over to the board! Its a pretty good group of girls.Yay for passing the 1 yr mark it is sooo nice to say less than a year out.  I have been engaged for a year as well, we wanted to wait until I was done but being crazy busy with school I needed time to plan so I am so glad he proposed when he did!  There is another poster on the May 11 board that wants to go to vet school.  Kinda crazy that the only 2 other posters on here interested in vet med are May 11 brides!

    As far as managing things a long engagement has been wonderful.  I am also getting married here in town so I have been able to make little trips here and there to get things done.  I know I will be relying heavily on my mom as it draws near and clinics get hectic.  Thankfully the way my schedule worked out I should actually have about a month between my last rotation and the wedding, (graduation is 9days before the wedding)  And I will have spring break off, and some more flexible rotations in the spring so I am hoping things will work out well!  I guess its already in motion so we will see how it plays out!

    Wow! Graduation just 9 days before the wedding? I am lucky, I get to take spring and summer quarter off. Then my FI and I are transferring to WSU for the Fall 2011 semester.

    I can't believe that there are so many May 2011 brides on here that want to be vets! It is really nice to meet someone on the boards who I can relate to.

    I'm a future biochemist, does that count?  Nothing interesting with animals though.  :)

    Good luck with planning and school!

    hehe yeah I am nuts!  I wanted it 2 days after graduation, but I am getting married in the college town and undergrad graduates on Sat soooo no hotels for my guest :-/ 9 days it is!  My sister, husband and 4 kids live out of state so I didn't want to have her pay for 6 tickets twice in one year- I feel bad I am making them do it once!  

    Its a stretch but atleast my sister and the 2 littlest kids will be here for both celebrations and my BIL and the 2 older boys can fly in for the wedding (since he works and they are in school)

    Hey aggiebug, I don't stop in here very often, maybe once a month or so. I'm probably tracking small, but there's a chance it will switch to mixed.
