Hii

you can call me Auby, I'm eighteen and I've been a veggie since about March 24th 2007. I think. I originally became a vegetarian as a dare. Only I was dared to do so because I was considering converting. I had two good friends which were veggies at the time and for a while I've been a fan of River Phoenix, and he was a vegan, and I guess he made me aware about what was actually going on, and the lifestyle I could lead as aposed to the one I was leading, I guess you could say it gave me the idea. But it was the dare which turned me... the second time. The first time I lasted a few days and ate a chicken kiev pizza! So I failed, then I was dared the second time and I stuck to it. Is it just me or is America awful for vegetarians? I was in Florida two years ago and I seemed to only be living on lettice and cheese pizzas. So that's the story of my veggism.

Along with tarianism I'm also (hopefully) gonna be a volunteer for some environmental agency. So whoot should be fun, saying the world and whatnot - and also help me get a free pass into uni, I want to do law and it's miighty competeitive.

Some more random facts, I'm British. Another, I spent a year of my life doing nothing but acting. Another, I love ice hockey and was soooo happy when the Pens won!

The other day I was at work (work part time in a clothes shop) and I had to sell some woman a leather jacket. I was almost sick. It was vile. Ultimatiumly! She was talking about how great it was, and how fake leather was horrible, and I had to pretend I liked it so I was all 'yeahh, leather always has that distinguishing smell...' *COUGHDEADANIMALBLOODCOUGH*

And that's about it.

Hey thanks.

I'm from Newcastle. I'm super excited too because I'm starting a campaign to veganise/vegetarianise my college cafeteria - I swear we have no food for us compassionate souls.

So yeah thanks for the welcomes and I'm a step ahead of you, rules checked.

That is awesome! I wish you the best of luck!

My school's lunch isn't the greatest, either. The most cruelty-free thing we have is side salad and pizza. Nothing they serve tastes, good, either. I've heard it's even worse this year >.< Glad I've stopped eating there.

Thanks for checking out the rules. Some people don't do that before they post. I just want to make sure everyone does it.
