First blog post

So this is my first post...

i've never done a blog before so please be patient with me :)

The reason for me starting this blog occurred to me when i visited PETA's website.
http://www.peta2.com/
PETA is People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. I already knew alot about animal cruelty; I did my final paper on animal cruelty for my Social Justice 12 class. PETA, however, inspired me to go further. Their website is great, as it showed me step by step ways as to how I could change my community regarding practises that cause animal cruelty. They offer free campaign items, like posters and stickers, and by taking action, you can even win "points" that can be traded in for hoodies, t-shirts and other cool stuff.

I thought I could start my journey by educating people through my blog and campaigning around my school.
After that, i think i'll move on to bigger projects- fast food chains, animal testing, and other stuff. I even plan to try veganism. ;)

i'll try to update daily, and please hang on while i try to figure this blog thing out.
