Introductions

I have had many blogs, over the years.  This one, however, actually has focus.  This one is important to me.  So, allow me to introduce myself so that you may get to know what I'm about.  Firstly, my name is Ashley and this is my blog.  In this blog, I will be discussing, with you, things that I am passionate about.  For instance, I am a vegetarian; here, I will post recipes, brands I enjoy, animal free alternatives, and resources for a cruelty free diet.  Also, I am environmentally conscious.  This blog will feature tips on how you can reduce your carbon footprint and other resources I enjoy as well as information on the state of the environment and how our different choices have consequences but can also make a difference.  I'll post, discuss, and review articles that pertain to health, the environment, and animal cruelty.  Also, you'll probably be seeing a sassy young bear-wizard named Padfoot who will occasionally be recommending you things.
Anyway, here is a little bit about me, as a person:

• My name is Ashley.
• I am 22 years old.
• I am an English major focusing on British and American literature.
• I write.
• Thankfully, I have never had nor have I needed braces.
• My joints hyper-extend.
• My hair is so thick that it impedes my ability to wear hats and use hoods.
• For the first 11 years of my life, I had no idea that any music apart from "golden oldies" existed.
• As part of my writing process, I talk to myself.
• My first crush was on Johnny Depp at age five.
• I'm chronically polite.
• When I was learning how to walk, I decided to try running first but was too indecisive and ran into a door frame.  As a result I have a scar on my forehead.
• I'm pragmatic yet optimistic.
• Raw or barely cooked tomatoes disgust me.
• I'd rather watch someone play a video game than actually play it myself (depending on the game) because it's like watching a movie.  Also, when it comes to shooters, I'm sort of jumpy.
• I grew up watching Star Trek, Star Wars, Xena, and Twin Peaks.
• A large part of me has always wanted to be a bad ass.
• My closest friends have been in my life for 10+ years.
• I treat my webcam like it's a two-way mirror.
• I have a sub-par liver.
• Since I was little, I've been obsessed with England.
• I am constantly on the look out for my new favorite coffee mug.
• Sometimes I spell things the Canadian or English way instead of the American way; I like to add the letter 'u' into words.
• I have a tumblr: mentally_maladjusted
• I'm probably the least computer savvy person you're likely to not meet.
• Almost every crush I have had in my life has been on a fictional character. 
• The only thing really keeping me from being a vegan is my strange attachment to nutella.

I guess that's it...
Read my blog, I guess.
Oh, and follow me on twitter.
Hmm.  Yeah, I think that's it.
