Activist Aspirations Enthusiastic
Political Leaning Very Liberal
Religions Jedi  
Eating Habits try to eat local/organic, should eat better, Love Carbs, Raw Foods, vegetarian, Aspiring healthy eater, garlic  
Wild Fact About Me I own over 700 books, and I keep buying more faster than I can read them. My boyfriend currently has me on a plan where every time I buy some books, I have to read all of them plus twice as many older books before I can buy any more. It's really hard.
My Philosophy If everyone stopped saying "I'm just one person, I can't make a difference," then more differences would be made.

You can't change the world, but you can make a dent. A lot of dents equal a big change.
What Gives Me Hope Seeing lots of people managing to make a difference.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by Ban animal testing, and publicise the health benefits of vegetarianism.
What/who changed my life and why A video I saw of seals being clubbed to death, because it's what inspired me to become vegetarian and start fighting for animal rights.
What Bugs Me people who smoke at bus stops, Those who hurt others weaker than them, injustice, bullying, George Bush, intolerance, Litter Bugs!!, indifference, ignorance, hate, Evil people, Drunk Drivers, cruelty, arrogance, apathy  
Passions being the change I want to see, animal rights (including human rights), promoting proper grammar, belly dancing, reading  
Inspirations people who accomplish great things, great books, music, children, animals  
What Scares Me apathy, death, global warming, Ignorance and evil, Losing the ones I love, rape, Shootings in Our Schools, Violent people, War - Cruelty - Greed - Indifference
