You know... I'd really love to have a Giant VT (even though Giants don't usually live as long). Maybe one day I could do a project line of Giant Veils.. that might be fun to do.. although breeding VT is pretty much a crapshoot as far as shows and standards go. But a big ole VT would be so pretty (Fishy is a testament to that ;)).

*Would definitely buy one* lol

LOL I'll put you on the list ;) If I did breed a line like that I'd probably give them away at the cost of shipping simply because there really isn't a market for Veils..then again who knows what could be the trend in the future.

I would probably have to create a foundation of bigger veils.. using large males and females, and then cross later generations with Giants to get the Giant Veil... I'd have to do a lot of genetics researching before I started.

My boyfriend is very determined to have a Giant Betta and has no clue that Veils are out so he would love one for sure lol!

And I love researching genetics but sometimes it reminds me I need to go back to college lol

Fancy.. I love genetics too. Right now I'm taking Bio 2 which is all about genetics and evolution and classifications.. I love it. I wish I could take a genetics course but it wouldn't fit anywhere with my major so I'd have so spend money on a class I don't need..plus a prerequisite I don't need either.

LOL I don't mind.. I think its really nice.. the other forums I'm on never ask me "personal" stuff.. I think its great getting to know each other :)

Does your college have a career placement office? I went to mine and took this test called the Strong Interest Inventory.. its a really good tool to help you figure out what programs would be good for you. It helped me to know that I'm suited for working with special needs people/children, teaching, or being a translator. It gives you a bunch of careers and tells you how suited you are to each one.

I found it really helped me. Although Speech Therapy wasn't my number 1 career I still think I'm going to be very happy with it. My number one was Special Education but I know that I'm better at working with a child one on one than in a group.

You should take the SII.. it really is helpful.. even if it just narrows down your choices. I think they should give it to all HS Seniors who are going/ planning to go to college.

BTW it was free at my college to take it. I just had to make an appt with career services.

Yeah they do, and I keep telling myself... GO TO CAREER SERVICES!!! But I'm painfully shy and awkward in situations with people... So I haven't worked up the nerve yet. And they do offer it, once again, I just have to work up the nerve to do it.
I like getting to know people too! (yes, I know that contradicts with the painfully shy thing but since it's online, it's different lol) Do you have facebook or myspace? Me and Vikki are friends on both...
