My first real pet (ie. not just something wild I just brought inside...) was a Southern Alligator Lizard named Gator. He was an adult when I got him in elementary school and I had him until he died when I was in high school.
I also had a Ball Python named Fred from middle school until my brother took over his care when I went to college.
Both of them were great pets. Thinking back I can't believe all the things I did wrong based on the advice of pet stores and outdated books... but I guess we've all been there.
