My New Year's resolution

As for my new year's resolution is to become a vegan. But it's gonna be a difficult one for me as I love ice creams, cheeses and chocolates. Sigh.... Anywho, I will try my very best to cut down on my sweet tooth and cravings.

When I became a vegan, that doesn't mean my future husband has to be one. However, I do hope that he will slowly evolved into one. If not, I will be drooling when I see him waving ice creams in my face. Hahahaha....(jk)

I've been a vegetarian since I was 15. So if my boyfriend isn't a vegetarian, I won't ask him to change into one just because of me. What if when he eats out with his friends or family? I won't say this to him either, "if our love is strong enough, you will change your diet" or "you didn't love me enough". I mean what if we were no longer together? Then what? I would rather he thinks of the animals and the enviroment he saved. That way, he will become a vegetarian in his freewill, just like me. =)

As for my friends and students, I do try my best to tell them to try vegetarian food. Even a meal of vegetarian a day or a day a week will help to reduce global warming. ^^ No doubt that grazing animals is not the only factor that caused global warming, but did you know that: 70% of our food like grains, corns, vegetables, etc and water go towards grazing animals so humans are left with 30%. No wonder there's food shortage! What if a drought or a flood destroyed the crops? Or the harvest is little due to global warming? Then humans will be left with what? 15%?? :~(

I'm really glad that a lot of countries are doing their part to promote vegetarianism. One of recent ones is the United States of America. Let's hope for the best for 2009! Cheers!!
