[critter crazy]

Congrats!!! That is awsome!! sorry you cant take Kishii!

[Marigold2]

Way to go. So happy for you. Your sweet bunny will not forget you and you will be able to see her when you come home to visit. How far away will you be?

[Alysser]

Congratulations!! That's GREAT news!! I'm sorry you cannot take Kishii, but you can always visit him.

[Karen]

Congratulations! It's a big change, moving away from your family, but you'll be so busy I bet you'll love it, aside from missing your Kishii!

[Kalei]

Aww! Thank you so much everyone, you are all so sweet and comforting. I am going to a University in Canada called Stfx (Saint Francis Xavier University) its about 3 hours away from home.

So its not too far, I get sad thinking about leaving Kishii, but when I think about it more, I will see her more than I think, cause I will be able to come home on alot of weekends and see her We also have family about 45 mins from the university that my parents can stay with when they want to come visit me so that is good news also

It is definately going to be a life-changing experience and probably a good one too Freedom, that must have been so nice to be able to drive back and forth. I was hoping to be able to do that, but sometimes when you really want something I guess you have to sacrifice some things, and being with my parents is one of them.

I'm sure I'll see them more than I think. It's just when I think of being away I feel like I will never see them, but I realize I will, and I will see my beloved Kishii, and my goldfish and my cat Bobo!

Thanks so much everyone! You don't know how much all your positive comments mean to me

Freedom, that must have been so nice to be able to drive back and forth. I was hoping to be able to do that, but sometimes when you really want something I guess you have to sacrifice some things, and being with my parents is one of them.

It was 37 miles and took an hour and 15 minutes one way - rush hour traffic into Boston, Mass. Sure was NOT fun during the Blizzard of 1978! I cut classes and left 3 hours early; and finally arrived home 2 hours later than normal! Then after 4 days, the university resumed classes, but none of us commuting students could get back in for another week!!!

Each way has it's good and bad points. I am sure you will do great with your transition, and the best part is that you have the school you want.

[Kalei]

Thanks very much. wow that would be scarey having to drive home in a blizzard, I'm glad you always got home okay. You're right, both will have their bad points.

Too bad the University only allows small fish tanks and no other pets...oh well, I will make my little 10 gallon so perty and such nice fish that it will be my pride and joy of pets while I"m there
