sitting here, awake, at approximately 4:40am, i have decided to become VEGAN. as of this very moment, i am not completely educated in the ways of veganism, and it is therefore safe to say that i am choosing this lifestyle right now for numerous vain reasons, though health is a another huge factor. the site above is a really great place to get more info on the lifestyle if you're interested. i'm finding that i have already been heading toward this path without even making the conscious decision. i've always wanted to be vegan but i just can't imagine a life without chocolate or cheese or other various dairy products. but after doing some reading about a pure vegetarian lifestyle, i've decided to consciously start working towards eliminating animal products and their bi-products from my life. the way i see it, i harm the environment enough in other ways, so this is my way of balancing it out. i am blaming my diet for my insomniac-tendencies, and for the fact that i'm always tired even when i manage to get some rest. plus, i really don't think my body likes animal products, i know for a fact that milk doesn't agree with me (and that goes for its offspring, such as yogurt, ice cream, etc.). blah blah blah. as i take my vegan journey, i'll let you know how it goes.
in other news, i went to Barcelona this weekend and it was great! i absolutely adore that city and i MUST visit again before i leave. i went with my friends Kit-Kat, Little J, and Ty-Ty. And i made a new friend Big Al who was so nice for showing us around and taking us to the best of the best in the city. anyway, we had too much fun. but right now i'm trying to watch Almost Famous so i'll throw together a photo slideshow a little later. much love
AMB
