Charlie the kitten, right after I brought
him home. |
Welcome to my blog! My name is Claire Afflerbach, and I grew up in Austin, Texas with my parents and two younger siblings, Ben and Jillian. I am currently a sophomore at Trinity University in San Antonio, and this blog is an assignment for my computer science class. I am planning to major in Biology, and possibly minor in Biomathematics. After I graduate from Trinity in a couple years (hopefully!) I want to go to vet school. Over the summer, I worked at a small animal clinic in Pflugerville, Texas and ended up adopting a kitten, who we named Charlie. He's an awesome kitten, absolutely crazy, but still very sweet. I love horses and everything involved with them - just being out at the barn is aromatherapy for me, which is why I tend to live there when given the chance. As a result of this passion, or obsession, I want to specialize in equine veterinary medicine, and would love to continue riding with Trinity's Equestrian Club. I have also spent a large portion of my life playing soccer, and even though its been a couple of years, I truly miss it.
When it comes to computers, I have very little experience or natural talent. In fact, I'd consider myself technologically illiterate. I took a computer science class at Anderson High School in my junior year, but I don't feel particularly knowledgeable. Hopefully once this class is over I'll have practical skills, and I'm especially looking forward to getting more comfortable with Excel.

Where do you want to go to vet school?
ReplyDeleteI'm not really sure, but I would love to get out of Texas. I'm considering the University of Wisconsin, or Colorado State. But I haven't actually been to either, so I guess we'll see...
ReplyDeleteThat's great that you want to go to vet school! Also, I'm a big fan of cats. From your picture, your cat looks really cute!
ReplyDeleteI have six cats at home and your lil one is adorable! Where do you want to go to vet school? I here A&M is a great place.
ReplyDeleteYou need to meet my three cats :)
ReplyDeleteAs the daughter of Aggies, I find it my responsibility to tell you that A&M has one of the best vet schools in the nation. And I wish I could have/play with cats, but I am unfortunately severely allergic to them.
