...yah, I kinda get made fun of for that. I've been wanting to keep a snake as a pet for as long as I could remember, but I have one of those Moms, who are like "you can get a snake when you have your own place!" And thats exactly what I'm going to do.
Actually in terms of the type of snake, I've had my heart set on a Ball Python since middle school, which as the first time I've ever saw one. Around that time when I saw snakes in pet stores I always made myself look away, not because I dislike them, but the exact opposite, because I knew they were my favorites and yet there was no way I could get one, so looking at them was simply too painful. The Ball Python however, I just couldn't help myself. Everything about them was so attractive.
Anyways, that was a long time ago, and I've been doing research ever since. I'm in university now, and only have two more years to wait before I actually get one. It shall be a glorious day!
