eggshellblueDon't really feel like posting, but I figured I should do something a bit more proper than "HOMGZ HOMEWORK AHHH!" >_>;;
Got to finally see my uncle's new house in Oakville yesterday. It's very nice, much bigger than his last one. But it's rather far from my school... if I moved in, I'd have to take buses to get there. Which shouldn't be too bad. But still. *shrug*
Also, I'm officially going to try going vegetarian. Yes, you read that correctly. I've been wanting to do this for years, but I've always found that I was too weak to give up meat >_o; ~ But yes. I made said decision day before yesterday, and haven't touched meat since. Unfortunately, my family is making fun of me >_>; ~ My mom literally went *SNORT* "yeah, right" when I told her >_<; And at my Uncle's place I was generally poked and prodded, and they'd make even more jokes, or like relate something they were talking about to my new vegetarianism (even though it had nothing to do with anything, guh!) and then give me side-long glances and smirk amusedly. BUT, when they ordered pizza that night, they ordered some veggie for me. Which made me happy, as I thought no one was taking me seriously 8) ~ They might not believe in me, but at least they respect my wishes ^___^
What else... oh, right!
GAH, HOMEWORK!!!
xD; Sorry, couldn't help it. Still need to finish Viv's concept art assignment... gonna work more on that tonight, as well as make an effort to sculpt more.
So, yes. That is about all.

Date: 2007-03-14 09:21 am (UTC)ok i believe in you but WHY would you want to convert now?
you do know that you will need to start consuming iron supplement once the blood iron level start fluctuating because of the sudden meat-in-diet loss.. but it sux that the iron supplement triggers acid reflex, even if you have the slightes bit of genetic inclination to that problem...
if not: you will have dizzy spells and eventually start fainting.. UNLESS you eat lodsa leafy vegetables. However, some vegetables actually INHIBIT the consumption of iron, and so does caffeine.. so you'll have to watch that...

Date: 2007-03-15 12:51 am (UTC)I already know about the iron business, I have a friend who's vegetarian that's been helping me through it. As far as the caffiene business, considering that I drank alot of caffiene even while eating meat (and during when i had a regular source of iron), if I continue doing so it shouldn't be too bad, ne? If anything else, i can cut my intake (I don't have money for coffee these days anyway xD)
And no, you haven't scared me ~ Dee can be very stubborn when he wants to be <3
