Moment of Silence

Today is a very tragic day for Jenna at the Eat, Live, Run blog. Her bother John passed away by a accidental gun shot. Her family’s and tragic loss is very big and too for her parents. Lets dedicate a moment of silence for her family.

Well as this tragic as her loss, lets hope that her bother is in a better place and her bother its finally not suffering and he is now with the lord and resting in peace.

Today my day went pretty well we went to Whole Foods and i forgot my phone or camera to take the pics of the store. Here are is the stuff I got.

Time for a hopeful quote
“When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.”

New Day

Hello peeps and peppetes

Hopefully your Friday is coming along very good, well mine has been good so far. One thing that did happen happen at school was a problem. This semester has been pure heel with my art teacher. I have been trying to get his help and he ignores me. Now he is blaming me that a took a stupid drawing (can someone why would i want t boring drawing) anyways back to the problem. He is going to bring my grade down by a full letter grade and and i will be failing the class and i need that class to graduate. Weill my counselor, mom, and me will me talking to him and see what is his problem. Just that one part my day is going pretty good. Any of you guys had recent problems with teachers?. I took some pictures of my school so you can see it and my Anatomy and Physiology class. Here they are…..

Random people in the background

Here is my favorite brand of dark chocolate and guess what??? its vegan (yayaya)

Its 85 percent cacao and its healthy (in moderation of course)

My dad told me that that he was going to take to guess what store (Whole Foods), I will be going there tomorrow and I promise to take pics of the store to show you guys and of the things i get there. There is a dilemma between vegans, is honey vegan or not? Some say it vegan and others say its not do any of you guys know?

Time for video of the day……

Quote of the day too

“Nobody can bring you peace but yourself.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

What do guys think of it?

Time to change

Hi world!!!!

My name is Alex Mendez, as you can see. Right now i just became a vegan and i am raining the LA marathon that is going to take in May 19 ( I have to check, do not remember). In the last two years have change a lot in my life. During my 15th birthday i started to developed an ED and it was not pretty, now two years later i am almost recovered and trying to find my happy place in life and i am almost there. Right now the reason i became a vegan was to protect the life of animals (they have the right to live too and have long and happy life). I am not going to be life PETA that criticised everyone who does not eat a vegan diet, everyone has their choice and people should not get criticized based on the decisions they do. One of the reasons that i started this blog is to try find vegans and runners, that like to read or to blog. One of the things that i tried to strive for its not to let anything get me down. One of the things the i love to do is run. That time i am free form anything and just feel free and nothing wears me down. I am in my senior year in high school ( i know scary, i just want to stay a kid or teen forever) i am going to attend UCLA to become a register dietcian and help people make healthy choices and understand food labels and all of the lingo indredients they put in those nasty process things. I try to eat an all organic (when i have the money to buy it) diet vegan diet and maybe soon going raw and maybe later going soy free. But i think that its in the future not happening soon. I am going to post some pics during my ED and were i am now.
