7 things about me:

1. I've been a vegan for 4 years and a vegetarian for 12 years. I became a vegan for health, spiritual, and animal rights reasons.

My top four favorite bands are: Green Day (Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt are vegetarians and have designed vegan shoes), Sleater-Kinney, Yeah Yeah Yeahs (Nick Zinner is a vegan and Brian Chase is a vegetarian), and Black Sabbath (Geezer Butler and Bill Ward are vegans).
