Guest guest Posted December 17, 2002 Report Share Posted December 17, 2002 Hi guys My name is Jessica, I'm a new member...I hope I'm sending this to the right address. Okay, here's my deal... I'll be 20 in a few weeks, and I'm a Junior at Texas A & M University. Biomedical science major, hoping to do the vet thing. Keeping my fingers crossed (and my grades high)! I've been a vegetarian for 8 years now. I actually started on Thanksgiving day. I stopped eating meat cold turkey (pardon the sinfully horrible pun). I'm not funny. Anyway, the rest of my family are not vegetarians, although they have become much more aware of what they are eating, and all of them, including the men, don't have much of a problem with vegetarian meals anymore. I actually know very few people who swing this way, so it's nice to be able to talk to people who think the way I do. As for the people that I DO know that are vegetarians, most of them are women. In fact, I only know one guy who is one, but he lives in England. I'm waiting for the day when I meet some wonderfully charming guy who hates eating slaughtered animals.... And I've said enough now, I hope everyone has an awesome day! Thanks Jeannie for introducing me to the group! Jessica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2002 Report Share Posted December 18, 2002 Hi Jessica. Welcome to the group. I hope you can get some useful ideas here for what to fix to eat and also some friendly support for your new lifestyle choice. Good luck on the veterinary school thing. I know from my cousin's experience at Cornell that getting into that program can be difficult; don't give up if it is your calling. ~ P_T ~ Circe is indeed the goddess who lured sailors to her island and then turned them into swine. However, she did finally relent and give them directions to get home. No doubt this was the genesis of men being afraid to stop for directions. ~ Lauren Collins ~~~~*~~~~*~~~~*~~~~*~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~> , " Hokamp Jessica Anne " < jhokamp@n...> wrote: > Hi guys > > My name is Jessica, I'm a new member...I hope I'm sending this to the right > address.

As a veggie for 21 years, I understand your need for an expanded veggie support community. I live near San Francisco and I've seen the veggie community grow and decline during that time. Currently, it's booming here and probably everwhere. Here's a couple of links to get you started for finding that wonderfully charming guy who hates eating slaughtered animals. vegetariansingles/ http://www.VeganFriendship.com/ Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
