The road to becoming a veterinarian is a long one. It isn't a path for anyone who isn't 100% certain that it's the only career that will satisfy them and make them happy. It's a path you take because passion says you have to. It's one filled with difficult decisions, endless choices, and hard sacrifices. The costs commonly go beyond the tangible tuition expenses. You do the best you can to survive the journey. You hope that you'll look back at the end and say "that was totally worth it," but even right now, you already know that you will feel that way because it's just what you're meant to do.
Sacrifices commonly include family, friends, and pets, entertainment and relaxation (due to lack of time and funds), incurring large amounts of debt, and usually your sanity. The rest of the world goes about daily life while you're buried under mounds of textbooks and notes in another world of your own. The sacrifices are tough. Perhaps the rest of the world would kindly invent teleportation and plant money trees for all of us poor suckers stuck in veterinary world by choice? Please?
