BAD NEWS:

I'm having to put this on hold for about a year now. I'm shipping out to basic training on June 5th, and we know where I'll be for Tech school after that, but as far as my first duty station? Completely unknown. I could be sent to Japan and then we'd have no way to ship it out, I'd have to tear it down and everything to ship it, it's just not worth it, and my dad has already voiced his decision (a very solid no.) so sorry to those who were anticipating seeing this build :/ I'm equally, if not more, bummed out about it too

You're going to love basic!!! One of the greatest experiences of my life! The feeling of accomplishment that you will have is priceless!

Plus I'm training like a madman with my DEP so I plan to GO IN with honor grad graduation standards, I'm about halfway there.

Looking back 10 years, yea basic was kind of fun. It'll really help if you start off in good shape.
You'll be so busy for the next year or so (depending on how long AIT is) you won't even have time to THINK about a viv, much less build or maintain one. Also, what if you get deployed? It's kind of hard to take care of an animal stateside when you're sitting in a tent across the pond.

My tech school is 83 days, I won't be free again until this time next year, and I fully understand the situation, just an all around bummer, but it's alright =] At the moment I'm in pretty good shape, my only issue is running, my 1.5 was 12:20 last time, and that was really pushing it, so that's what I desperately need to work on, other than that I'm good (but can never be good enough!)
