Introduce Yourself!

[Amy-Jocelyn]

Introductions!
Let us know a little about, well, you!
Tell us all why you are veg! Though I am sure we all know why.
How long you have been so. When you got involved with Peta. Are you even involved with them. Do you have companion animals? Religion? Anything and everything. Even post pictures, as long as they do not stretch the page.

 

[Amy-Jocelyn]

Well, I will start off.
My name is Amy-Jocelyn, you can call me that or Ames.
I am 18, and will be 19 on September 16th.
I am making the transition into a vegan lifestyle. But unfortunately for me I living a very "not vegan friendly" town and while 95% of my food is vegan and I do not eat meat I am having a difficult time finding real vegan food aside from Soy burgers and Soy dogs, soy milk, and your basic veggies and spices. Which I have been living off of a while now. razz
I have two companion animals, cats. Lee and Eli. Both about a year old. Lee is a HUGE orange tabby, and Eli is a beige cat. Both have hilarious personalities.
I'm really eclectic with my religion, and that is a whole other topic. I am part of the Peta2 street team and am working on getting flyers to hand out at my University and I want to start and Animals Rights Club. Oh! I go to Bishop's University in Sherbrooke, Quebec. No, I do not speak French yet.
Why I am going veg? Just read about factory farms and the hell animals go through. If they go through that, we can go through the very slightly difficult change into Vegetarianism.
My close friend introduced me to Peta2, and while they can be extreme they really mean the best.
Oh, I am in a long term relationship.

 

[Shikyo Gashi]

I am protestant Christian, I have been Vegetarian for six months but turned Vegan about two months ago and have never been healthier. I always believed in vegetarianism but I could never really do it until I realized I was being ignorant to the lives of the poor animals I was living off of. I also thought it was stupid because unlike food myths you can live without meat and still be healthy. It is practical too if you remember back in science class how energy is lost higher up the food chain you go (now if only I could photosynthesis). Just there are so many arguments that start up because all the myths. The one I hate the most is the weak malnourished vegan image. I think that starts up when teenage girls try to use it as a diet to loose weight so they don't eat all the required nutrients they need and just snack on salads and celery.

Hello my name is Amy I have been a vegetarian for 2 years. I am also a
Christian.I became a vegetarian because its wrong and cruel how they kill animals and treat animals.In some places in our world they kill millions of animals a day and I have had the dream that it would stop.Ever since I have started being a vegetarian I have hoped if there were more vegetarians in our world we could stop the killing of animals that are in danger.

hi there my name is katy. I've actually just started to adjust if not still adjusting to being a veg. It's actually rather difficult when you have a dad like mine who thinks you're pretty stupid for living the veg life style and he says it in he most mean possible way :/. But I've lived to ignore it and just move on. I have 3 cats but out of the 3 smudgie is my fav he follows me evrywhere smile . I've became a veg because I've read and saw some disturbing stuff. wish me luck cause I'm going to need it

[vegansunnybunny]

Nice to meet you all! I'm Tiffani and I have been a vegan for almost 2 years now! I became a vegan when i was 13, now I am 15, and I did so because I figured if I wouldn't eat my pets (I have 4) then why would I eat other animals that have the same will to live? I have never looked back and I love spreading the word on veganism!
