Ready for Round-up!!

Oooooooohh yeaaaah! Animal Testing Breaks Hearts campaign materials came in today!! XDย  I was sooooooo happy when I got it!

12 sheets of 8 stickers!! (Animal Testing Breaks Hearts, McCruelty, Club soda, not seals, etc.) They are insanely cute!!! โค

Okay, okay, going back. There’s this thing at school called “Round Up”, and that’s where all the clubs put up booths to advertise their club and have more people join! And now with these materials, I can totally rock at it! XD

Too many people seriously don’t know what’s going on right now. Millions and millions of animals are being killed for “food”, but they don’t know where they’re coming from! D:< It sucks. Don’t like it. So, to spread the words about/for the animals, I’m going to go crazy during Round-up this year! (Though I was planning to leave with my BF…Oh well.) I would rather put my time into a good cause rather than to just leave school to do nothing:) Besides, I want to/ love help/-ing the animals!!!

So yeah. I thought I’d let that out to the world ๐Ÿ™‚

Just so you know, Round Up is next Friday (October 9; day before the SAT and ย homecoming! Yeay!) So that should be fun if I don’t leave (^_^);;

Peta2 blocked!

Peta2 blocked!

ย Oooohhh shoot. I SERIOUSLY should go do my Chem. & Calc. homework and study for the AP Gov test now ๐Ÿ˜› (and I have a AP art project due 10/5 and haven’t really started on it! Shoot!) (^_^);;

Have a good day and thanks to anyone who stopped by!! XD

Happy National Hug a Vegetarian Day!!!!!

Wooooohooooooooo!!! It’s Hug a Vegetarian Day!!

Ahh, what a good day!! For a few reasons: One, because it’s Hug a Vegetarian Day. And two: my BF asked me to Homecoming! (*^^*)

The way he asked was realllllyy cute! When I opened my locker this morning, there was a picture with him holding a rose and saying “Homecoming? -I’m Vegetarian”!! ( You know the speech bubble that says, “Hug me -I’m Vegetarian”? He used that) X) And there was a rose and a bar of dark chocolate with it! Then he came and attacked (hugged) me from the side! XD It was all a surprise and it was amazingly cute! โค

So after that, I gave him a t-shirt that’s a fit for today!

My BF in the t-shirt I made for him! :D

My BF in the t-shirt I made for him! ๐Ÿ˜€

ย Pretty sweet, eh? (We’re totally matching! Yeay!!!) (I hope he’s okay with me putting up his pictures…hmm…)

For the whole day, he wouldn’t let me go (^^);;ย  I thought that was funny and cute ๐Ÿ™‚

Here’s a picture of us two hugging for Hug a Vegetarian Day!

It's my BF and me!

It's my BF and me!

Lots of people signed the pledge, too. (-u-) Today was a good day!

I hope all of you had a good day on Hug a Vegetarian Day 2009!!

Like always, thanks to anyone who stopped by! ๐Ÿ™‚

Peta2 Buttons!

I told you how crazy I was getting with making stuff, and I don’t think I can stop making things! (Or at least I wasn’t able to stop)

Here’s today’s craft:

Peta2 Buttons!

Peta2 buttons! Handmade by me! (even the drawings ๐Ÿ™‚ Other than these, I have McCruelty, “Love me, don’t eat me”, “Buy cruelty-free”, and another nugget button. (which I gave away to my BF; except for the McCruelty one)

These were pretty easy to make, and it’s cute! It’s really fun to make stuff like this and get the message about Animal Rights.

I wear it everyday, but people don’t seem to either notice or they just don’t ask questions. (This tells you how people really don’t pay attention to other’s looks as much.) Oh well. It’s fun and that’s what matters. (I’m going to say this so many times whenever I wear AR stuff.)

I hope people figure out the truths behind the animals that are being inhumainly killed!!

Like always, thanks to anyone who stopped by ๐Ÿ™‚

I actually made lots of peta2 stuff!

Okay, I’ve been making A LOT of peta2 stuff lately, and I thought I would upload some more. (I’m not even kidding when I say A LOT)
So here; take a look! X)
Made one! :)

Made one! ๐Ÿ™‚

Yup! It’s a peta2 tote bag! Someone made one and had their picture of it on flickr, and I thought it was cool, so I made one too! Pretty cool, huh? (Ha ha, the funny thing is that this is actually a Wii Tote Bag. I thought that would be too geeky and it was boring, so I put it in to good use!) ๐Ÿ™‚
But not a lot of people notice or ask me anything about it. (The only comments I get are like, “wow! That’s so cute!”) I guess lots of people respect veg*ns around here. (or maybe they just don’t pay attention to what other people have…)
Oh well. It’s pretty attractive and cute if you look at it closely! (But the string broke, so I had to sew it back on + tape. It works!)
Making things is fun. It takes time, effort, and money (ouch!), but it’s *deff* worth it! I think that this is a good way to speak up for the animals. (If people notice, that is…)
I hope more people start to realize what a crazy activist I am!
Thanks to anyone who stopped by! ๐Ÿ™‚

Yeay for Nugget!

If you’ve been to peta2, you know about the nugget, right? (Right??)

Since it’s sooooooo adorable and can get anyone’s attention, I thought I’d wear this:

Peta2 T-Shirt!

Voila! Nugget’s t-shirt! (Buying it online is expensive; making it is cheaper!)

The good thing about making it is that you get to choose the t-shirt to iron it on. (and the colors if you’re spazzy) Nugget is neon, but that looks cool too, so it’s all good ๐Ÿ™‚

(Ha ha, I wore it to school, but no one said anything about it…) (T_T)

I really want to know what the nugget plushie is like…Anyone have one??

I’m having SUPER fun being carried away with making peta2/nugget/animal rights stuff! X) (So far, I’ve made rings, hairclips, and buttons) ๐Ÿ™‚

Man…why is being an active activist/streetteam member so much fun?

I really wish that sooner or later, people realize what the heck they are contributing to and go veg!

Thanks to anyone that showed up and read this! ๐Ÿ™‚

Vegan 21-day Kickstart!!!!!

Okay vegetarians, this is something to be super excited about.

There’s this program called “Vegan 21 Day Kickstart”, and this lets us take on the challenge to going vegan! Is that a good news or what?! I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited for this! Totally signed up and ready to go!!!

If you’re already a vegan, seriously, congratulations. I respect all of you vegans out there in the world.

After this 21-day, if I think I can pull it off, I’m going to become a vegan!!!!

If anyone has their own vegan story, free to post! (I don’t have a lot of comments…Oh well) I would love to hear the story behind everyone’s vegan life ๐Ÿ™‚

Speaking of 21 days, does anyone know why it’s “21 days”? It’s because that’s how many days it takes a person to completely change.

If you know about Will Bowen’s “A Complaint Free World” program, it’s also 21 days. (If you don’t know about it, check this out -> acomplaintfreeworld.org) I’m already doing this, but I can’t finish the 21 days. But since I’m super confident about finishing the vegan 21-day trial, I’m going to do the complaint-free for 21 days trial as well!!!

Doing the complaint-free program and vegan for 21-day program is going to be a challenge (I mean the no-complaining part. The vegan part is going to be easy!:), but I’m going to make this month fun and a blast!!!

Thank you to anyone who came to read this super-enthusiatic blog!!! ๐Ÿ˜€

Milk DOES Suck!!!

You know the link on my page to milksucks.com? Man, that’s a good website to look at…No joke.

Milk is so bad for the animals, the environment, and your body, but since people are sticking to the “old tradition where people drink milk”, they are not open-minded about learning how milk is bad for you ๐Ÿ˜›
Seriously, I want to tell all the heavy dairy-consumers that milk is sooooooooo bad that once you realize what kind of thing you are putting in to your body and how milk is damaging a lot of stuff!! (It would be fun to see their reaction…) (-u-)

Look at all the damages that people got from drinking milk! (I bet people would be surprised how milk connects to asthma…that’s actually on a different website, but still. I’m just saying how milk is bad) ๐Ÿ™‚
If any of you haven’t looked at it, check it out! It’s pretty cool to read through some of the information on there.
People learn so much everyday…(-U-)

Thanks to anyone who came and read this ๐Ÿ™‚

Yeay Environmental Club!!

There was an Environmental Club meeting today, and we were talking about how we might do a “Meatless Monday”!!! I was sooooooooooo happy to hear that! (But I seriously want to tell the President and the Co-Presidents that they should go veg if they’re going to be the head leaders of the “Environmental Club”)

But yeah, I think that’s a great idea ๐Ÿ™‚
And they said that we might work with the Animal Club to involve saving the animals (meat) as well!!! Awesome! XD

The founder of the Animal Club is in Environmental Club, so that makes life go a lot smoother in this case…(*-U-*)
Thank goodness for you captain!

I hope all these ideas get out into our school, and I think it would be cool if we can start a Vegetarian Club at school. (But the question would be something like, “What would you be doing??” I would say, “Getting people to sign leaflets and help the school get a veg*n lunch option)

Man, being veg*n’s so fun because then you feel good about saving the environment, the animals, and your self! XD

I hope all of you veg*ns out there are proud of what you are doing!

Thanks for stopping by and reading my blog! ๐Ÿ™‚

Continuing with the Chocolate Craving!

Ok, I usually don’t eat anything past 8:00 pm, because you’re supposed to not eat anything for about 3 hours before you go to sleep. But if you had a light dinner, you can’t say that, right?

So here I am right now (9:30 pm ish) eating. Since my chocolate craving isn’t going away any minute, I’m having fun with the Cocoa Puffs. ๐Ÿ™‚

But I thought eating that like a cereal is boring. (and it’s bad for you to consume liquid when you eat; it makes the stomach acid light, which slows down the digesting process) And I hate doing that anyways.

So, I was thinking, “How can I make my cereal-munching healthy?”

And there was the solution…Almonds!!

Eating Cocoa Puffs with Almonds is really good, actually. (-u-) โค It makes the puffs not-as-sweet XD

Any lazy recipes (that was a recipe?!) that you want to share? I'm open for anything, so hit me with what you have ๐Ÿ˜€

Like always, thanks to anyone that read this ๐Ÿ™‚

Chocolate craving!!!

I love chocolate. Period. I always have cravings for them. (especially super-dark chocolate. Anything from 70% and up is heaven for me!)

My favorite is the Endangered Species Chocolate (88% is the best!). I try to have them all the time in the fridge. (but it’s kind of pricy…Oh well)

Thank goodness that dark chocolate doesn’t contain milk. It’s vegan!

Also surprisingly, cocoapuffs are vegan too! Add soymilk and you have yourself a vegan breakfast right there! (and the soy milk turns into chocolate soy milk thanks to the cereal; yeay!) XD

I wish the Whole Foods that I always go to would start selling their vegan brwonies again. (they were cheap, big, and yummy!) Apparently, they got rid of it ๐Ÿ˜ฆ (But it’s soooooooooo good!!) If it wasn’t popular, that wouldn’t be cool. (It’s vegan and brownie! What more can you ask?!)

If anyone has a good chocolate recipe, please share! (That’s if anyone’s reading this…) I’ll take a stab at it (if if doesn’t require to use the oven Lol)!

Thanks to anyone that showed up to my website ๐Ÿ™‚
