Know Your Veg*ns (Pictures and info!)

Tar.Aldarion

So perhaps to get to know everybody that frequents here and to help everybody recognise each other for future boards meets we will have this picture and info sticky. So you can put pictures of yourself here, description of your diet, age, location, career, whatever and how much you are comfortable sharing, no more! Feel free to post updates or new photos too, whatever you want.

Some of you may not know how to post a picture on here so I'll do a quick run through first. You go to a website like www.photobucket.com or one of the others like flickr and you make an account. You are then given the option to upload pictures off your PC to your album. The site will then give you a link with the picture under it. To post it on here you paste the link in a post and write [?img] at the start of it and [/?img] after it, without the "?"s. So it might look like [?img]www.photobucket.com/picture.jpg[/?img]. If anybody has trouble let me know and I'll help you out, but I imagine most know how to by now. You can also just link to bebo/facebook whatever if you wush to show the photo that way.

So anyway I had better start it off since I am making the thread.

I am from Sligo, I have been a vegetarian for 5 years, maybe a vegan one day but that might take some years. I am vegetarian for many reasons, mostly ethical and environmental. When I started out all I ate was meat and it's taken me these years to get used to a vegetable diet. I would never go back now, it's fun to eat what I eat and try/cook new meals, and it makes me much happier than I would be if I still ate meat.

I have recently turned 23 and graduated a year ago with a degree in Electronic & Computer Engineering from NUIG.
So I lived for 4.5 years in galway and I am back in Sligo now. At the moment I am looking for a masters course/job, preferably in the capital, am studying for future certifications and learning to drive!

This is me on the left(you can tell by paleness):*
It is from a year ago when myself and my class visited Edinburgh.

I'll refrain from other pictures until other people post! You might even see the full face one day :eek:

*Not me really, just googled 'male model', i'm really a girl, honest, yes...

Hi! My names Philippa, I'm a 20 yr old student who recently turned vegetarian. I decided to give it ago more because I dislike how animals are treated in the meat industry and how un-natural a lot of the meat that end up in the super market tends to be... I still think meat is yummy and am not really a vegetarian, in that I would like to put someone out of their way or offend them by not accepting their non-veg food, though I intend to avoid meat when ever possible.

I'm also living in Spain this year, where vegetarianism practically doesn't exist (at least not on a student's budget). But I'm doing my best!

Here is me on Hallowe'en. I am the pathetic looking "cat" (there was some english girl running amok with face paint...).

Bad quality pic taken from my phone, costume looks nice though

Oh that was before I went out, hence why the beard was still on my face :pac:

As usual, crappy pic because it was only a quick request and I was going to be late >_<
I forgot to take a picture of the whole outfit. It was a Tim Burton theme so I was just trying to wear some sort of Tim Burton style outfit. You can't even see the makeup properly there! But anyways...

Good good. We have a few polls here which are interesting for newbies:
What age were you when you turned veggie?
The truth about vegetarians...
What are you?
Which type of milk do you prefer and why?

Hey lad(ie)s. I've been lurking here for a bit so I thought I should say hi.

I'm a computer science student and have always lived in Dublin. I went vegan about a month or so ago having been vegetarian for about a week, so I'm very new to the whole lifestyle. I've been cooking again quite a bit out of necessity and I love it. I've probably eaten more types of food in the past few weeks than I did in the previous year.

This is me looking my usual fashionable self, although I change my appearance all the time:

I think that's everything for now.
Look forward to talking to you all. Especially you, Sweet Rasmus...

Hi, my name is Bailey and I'm nearly 11 weeks old. I like to play and ruin people's expensive iPod earphones. My favourite hobby is walking all over people's keyboards. They just feel funny under my paws

Sorry for the bad pic but I think I'm not all that photogenic. Also my slave there is wearing a coat because the heating at home broke and it's freezing!

PS: I actually think a carnivorous diet is better for you. How do vegetarians survive?! I don't get it.

PS2: My slave made me do this, I swear!

Hi, I'm Lauren. I'm 22 and I've been a vegetarian about 5 years now. I'm new to the forum, had a boards account for a while now but only recently started using it. Not sure what other information to give really.

Photo below was taken by my little sister who is hoping to study photography although its about a year out of date and I now have a fringe.

Thought I'd gain some immediate common ground with this pic - surely we've all woken up beside a complete dog the morning after a night out at some point?

I'm Catherine, I'm 23 (almost 24, *clutches at youth*), a vet nurse, and have been a veggie since I was 16. Nice to meet y'all.
